Here’s the scene: trendy cocktails, hip DJ spinning tunes or amazing live band, perfect girls’ night or date night, dinosaur bones… Totally. It’s Martinis and IMAX at Fernbank Museum and it’s been an every-Friday-night event (January through November) in Atlanta for years.

With the snow yesterday and early school closings, the delay in school openings and even some cancellations today, Mother Nature has once again wreaked havoc on the social scheduled of Atlantans. But there is hope for the weekend – The 4th Annual Midtown International Wine Crawl. Five Midtown restaurants – all within walking (or crawling) [...]
Okay – I know there are tons of places all around Atlanta where you can gather with your friends and play trivia, practically every night of the week. But there’s only one place where I’ll be playing trivia tonight and that’s The Nook on Piedmont Park. <grin!> Now, I have never been to The Nook [...]
