Get a taste of what\u2019s cookin\u2019 for La Jolla High<\/b> With autumn comes cooler weather, back-to-school and pumpkin-spiced everything. For a taste of the feel and flavors of fall, take a stroll down the streets of La Jolla Village for an event that will nourish much-needed funds for programs at La Jolla High School. This year\u2019s Taste of La Jolla event on Oct. 23 will feature gourmet bites from 25 of the Village\u2019s top restaurants, providing sample-sized plates of popular dishes, ranging in style from seafood to steak, Spanish-style to Asian-fusion, savory to sweet and everything in between from 6 to 8:30 p.m. “It\u2019s a pub crawl for foodies,” said Jeff Macelli, president of the Foundation of La Jolla High School. “Guests will go from restaurant to restaurant sampling a little bit at a time.” More than just a gastronomic tour through the Village, however, funds from the foodie crawl will bolster educational programs for the public high school. “We certainly need all the help we can get in this era of budget cuts,” said Macelli. Last year, the event raised $18,000 for programs at the school, and this year, organizers hope to raise as much or more for the school\u2019s programs, staff and much-needed supplies and maintenance. “We are in the same financial situation each year. The need is always the same,” said Macelli. “Any support we get from the community goes a long way to pay for everything from school supplies [to] staffing. It just keeps the school functioning and running.” Tickets to the event are $45 in advance. To purchase tickets, call (858) 551-1250 or visit www.ljhs.sandi.net\/Foundation\/event-tasteoflajolla.html. Check-in is Chase Bank, 7777 Girard Ave., where guests will be provided a hand stamp and a map of participating restaurants. Following the event, Barfly, 909 Prospect St., will host an after-party with special prices on drinks. DEBE ESCUCHAR<\/b> Award-winning children\u2019s author and illustrator Marissa Moss and Stanford, Oxford and Cambridge-educated archaeologist Jordan Jacobs are cleverly introducing children to real historical events and the science of archaeology through their latest series of adventure novels, including “Samantha Sutton and the Labyrinth of Lies” by Jacobs and “Mira\u2019s Diary: Lost in Paris” by Moss. To celebrate National Archaeology Day on Oct. 20, Warwick\u2019s will host both authors at the La Jolla Library, located at 7555 Draper Ave. The presentation will illustrate how authors and archaeologists have common traits, like storytelling and the use of artifacts in stories.

To kill two birds with one stone, save the date for La Jolla Community Center\u2019s third annual “Autumn Shopping Spree & Wine Tasting” fundraiser on Oct. 20 from 1 to 4 p.m. The afternoon will include live music, wine and hors d\u2019oeuvres, mini-massages and exclusive shopping from local vendors like Windansea Wines, Tom Morosz\u2019 glass sculptures, Reena Horowitz\u2019 jewelry and more.
