Tonight we went with friends to dinner.  We were trying a place we'd never tried before and frankly it was VERY disappointing. I'm not sure I'll ever give them a second shot because it was very pricey to not be good and the server had a it's just you if you don't love our food kind of attitude.   So we did something different for dessert.  We left and went to Blu Culina fusion bistro to have dessert, cocktails and coffee at a different restaurant.  We were trying to decide what to order off their dessert menu when my friend spoke up and said "just bring us one of everything". Clockwise starting in the top left corner we had Baklava, Vanilla bean ice cream with balsamic sauce with blueberries and raspberries with biscotti, bread pudding, chocolate covered sea salt caramel with berries, s... 11/22/2014

Swamp Stomp 5K For Kaye- Eatonton, Georgia. The past two days I’ve been walking for the first time since September. A few weeks before I got married I got bronchitis and as a result lost some weight. My tailor told me I couldn’t lose any more or my dress would be too big. I took that comment and ran with it. Straight to the nearest Mexican restaurant. I haven’t looked back since. With the amazing weather it’s felt so incredible to get outside and be active again after my five month hiatus. If you’re like me then sometimes you might need a little inspiration to get up and get moving. The Swamp Stomp 5K For Kaye being held this Sunday at Gatewood Schools in Eatonton is all the inspiration you need! Kaye Gregory Cheshire, formerly of Eatonton, who attended Gatewood Schools, passed away in ... 03/14/2012

Ladybug, Ladybug Fly Away....Wait, Where Is Home? Earlier today I noticed the little fella in the picture on my windsheild as I was pulling out of my driveway on my way to a meeting. Call it curiosity or perhaps a bit of boredom but I decided to see just how long he hung on for the ride. I reset my mileage gauge and off we went. 7.8 miles. Not that far right? Well, if you're the size of a ladybug that's a LONG way. Perhaps like me moving from Atlanta to Lake Oconee (approximately 75 miles), maybe? Figured he might be a little confused and need a little guidance on where to go and what to do. In this guys case he went from living in Greene County to Putnam County so his little ones will need to switch from Lake Oconee Academy to Gatewood Schools. He'll probably want to continue to suppor... 02/28/2012
