You don’t need Ebenezer Scrooge’s tortured soul to take an enlightening peek into Christmas future.
Just take a downtown Worcester stroll, maybe make your way down to the Canal District, where visions of sugarplumbs and pot brownies may soon be dancing in neighbors’ heads. On the bright side, your holiday shopping will for sure — maybe as soon as next winter — be much more interesting.
Meantime, Hitch pounds the pavement for this year’s perfect gift.
