5 Things Includes a Serenade from Your Editor

"Monday, you can hold your head
Tuesday, Wednesday stay in bed
Or Thursday — watch the walls instead
It's Friday, I'm in love"

—The Cure, Friday I'm in Love

There. Now you can all sing along with me as we go over the five things you should know today, Land O' Lakes.

• Hungry? You can get a free appetizer or dessert at Rapscallions (up to $8) if you bring in a new toy for Toys for Tots or sponsor a wish for a Pasco County child on the restaurant's Angel Wish tree. 
• Thinking about your New Year's resolutions yet? If volunteering in the community is on your list, check out our who need your support. And if you know of an organization we should add, email keli.sipperley@patch.com.
• Joy to the World ... and your pockets. Are you a Clark W. Griswold- type during the holidays? Share your photos in and you could win $500 to pay that electric bill, plus $100,000 for Pasco County schools.
• Who has the best pizza in town? Where's the best place to get your nails done? Best place to grab a drink? Watch for our polls all next week to cast your votes! 
• Busy, busy, busy. There's a ton going on in Land O' Lakes tomorrow. Check our our for a list of events. Patch will be at Traditions on the Green collecting letters to Santa. Come by and say howdy!
