There is nothing I enjoy more than a good farmers market. Actually that’s a lie. I enjoy cooking whatever I buy at a farmers market even more. So you must know how excited I was to be able to do a cooking demo at one. More specifically the Serenbe Farmers Market. I immediately knew what […]

A Quickie…Hoyles Kitchen and Bar
It’s the weekend and you know what that means? Brunch time! Yep, that’s right. There are tons of places Inside The Perimeter of Atlanta (ITP), but to find something worth traveling Outside The Perimeter of Atlanta (OTP) for is always a gem. Hoyles Kitchen and Bar is such a place. Hoyles is a restaurant steeped in […]
A Quickie…The Round-Up
There are so many places I have not gotten a chance to share with you. I’m sure if you are keeping up with my social media platforms you have seen pictures of me here, there and what seems to be everywhere. Instead of making a few blog posts, I have decided to do a round […]
A Quickie…A good slice of pizza
Okay if you didn’t know now you do. I am a born and breed New Yorker. Known here in Georgia as a transplant. Yea so there are somethings that just cannot be replicated here in Atlanta no matter what they do. Pizza is one of those things. Now I am not talking Papa John’s, Domino’s […]
Marimekko for TargetStyle
So Target has pulled off another designer collaboration. Guess what? They actually made pieces for the plus size woman. The line drops in less than 30 minutes online and in store. As I perused the lookbook I came across what I hope to make apart of my swimsuit collection. It’s […]

A Quickie….Real Hawaiian Punch
Yesterday while at a one day business intensive class I was fortunate enough to actually taste Hawaiian Punch. No, not the stuff we’re used to seeing in the supermarkets. Actual punch all the way from Hawaii. Yes. Guess what? It tasted so good to me. To be honest I could not tell you the last […]
A Quickie….National Martini Day
I fell in love with Martinis….Apple Martinis to be exact over 10 years ago. I had long been a fan of vodka but now I had another cocktail made with vodka to add to my list. I learned that today, June 19th, was National Martini Day. A day dedicated to the celebration of Martinis. How […]
A Quickie….elmyriachi
With family in town for my parent’s vow renewal I was put on tour guide duty. Today was actually a lovely day to take in the King Center. Well after a walking tour of the center it was time to eat. We ended up lunching in the Kirkwood neighborhood at a Mexican restaurant, elmyriachi. We […]
