Audra’s Weekend Foodie Frenzy

Y’all know that I love to try new restaurants but I really only get to do so every once in a while.  Jose (my trainer) will not like this but I’ve been to 5 different restaurants since Thursday!  This is VERY unusual and all came about because of 2 aunts/Mom’s b’day party, college sorority reunion, niece dance recital and old friend visiting from Chicago! … Read More »

Recipes, for me, have never been an “etched in stone” kind of thing.  Whether I’m following a recipe in a cookbook/online, trying to recreate something I’ve eaten at a restaurant or simply making something up, I rarely repeat a recipe verbatim. … Read More »

Ponce City Market – Audra’s Review

According to the app WAZE, Ponce City Market is 17 miles from my Dunwoody home and currently 27 minutes away.   It took us a bit longer to get there last Saturday during this busy shopping season.  I drove my parents there because I knew my Dad would love the history of the old Sears & Robuck building and would also more than likely find plenty of great photo opportunities. … Read More »
