Atlanta-Area Holiday Inn Gets a Stylish Makeover – First Holiday Inn in the World to Present “The Hub” Concept

I know what you’re thinking: I live in Atlanta – why would I need to visit the Holiday Inn in Duluth?

Or maybe you just want to check out their delightful renovation [...]

Introducing Lobster and Lemonade Days at Souper Jenny – Getting You Through August with a Delicious Souper Jenny Delight!

It’s only August 1 and I miss Souper Jenny already. I mean, I get that Jenny closes down every August to give her staff (and herself) a much-needed vacation…but what about me?
