Exploring Atlanta – For Newcomers and Natives
I’m a big fan of breakfast, so I’m a fan of places like the Flying Biscuit that truly do breakfast well. While the line at the door can stack up on the weekend if you get there after 9:30 AM, it’s worth the wait. My usual order is the Flying Biscuit Breakfast – two eggs [...]
Today, while driving back from shopping at a great nursery, we stopped, on a whim, at Washington Farms in Loganville to pick our own strawberries. (Before you ask, yes, I am aware how far away Loganville is [or at least, seems] for most Atlantans. I’m calling this destination a “day trip” and will occasionally feature day [...]
The Dunwoody Art Festival is this weekend and it’s a great place to bring Mom for Mother’s Day! This event is a very special art festival featuring whimsical and colorful hand-made art by artisans from all over the country. Artist booths are filled by invitation only, so you can be sure that the art is [...]
If you visited The Urban Picnic on Friday, April 30, then you’ve been to the Sweet Auburn Curb Market. Or perhaps you’ve been there to shop the amazing Farmers Market booths or bakeries. Either way, if you know the Sweet Auburn Curb Market, you know just how unique it is. If you haven’t been there, [...]

Williams as he teams up with W Atlanta–Buckhead for his first post-season Atlanta appearance at “Cocktails & Couture,” [...]

Summer is baseball and baseball is serious business in Atlanta. You don’t need me to tell you to go to a Braves game – chances are, you’ve been to one, or at least heard the numerous commercials on the radio about upcoming games and ticket schedules or the Braves’ Airtran commercials. Your REALTOR® or mortgage lender may [...]
I’ll start by saying this probably won’t be the best Mexican/Latin food you’ve ever eaten. It’s good but not great; you’ll enjoy it but not be wowed. However, I do think they have the best mojitos in town – and that’s why I go to Las Margaritas. Now, I’m no mojito expert, but I’ve had [...]
It’s another weekend of festivals here in Atlanta – one reason why so many love living here! This weekend, the weather has (mostly) cooperated, except for a few scattered raindrops yesterday. And it looks to be another sunny day today – perfect to celebrate Fiesta Atlanta, Atlanta’s premiere and largest outdoor Hispanic festival! The 4th [...]
This could be a very “green” weekend for you, if you so desire!

Today – Saturday, May 1, 2010 – [...]
