Note from Audra: Danielle is busy with clients so I’m taking over Travel Tuesday today. It’s definitely appropriate since I’m going to be traveling outside Dunwoody for 18 days between now and Labor Day! 11 of those days have been planned exclusively by Danielle! We’re going to play a game while I’m gone whereby I’ll post pictures to Instagram and Facebook sharing pictures taken by me and my travel partners and letting people guess where we are…..at… Read More »
My ultimate goal is to provide my customers simple instructions, so simple that if they work, they won’t need a visit. Sounds altruistic, right? I try. It always starts this way. (Windows computers only…)
“Hi Adam, I’m having a major panic attack because I think I have a virus, my screen is black, there’s a coyote in my backyard, The geese are jay-walking around Dunwoody Village. … Read More »
When leaving the Georgetown Kroger and heading back toward Dunwoody on Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, the view is very different these days. Many trees have been chopped down making room for sidewalks and bike lanes and the burying of utilities. Now you can now clearly see the JF&CS buildings located at 4549 Chamblee Dunwoody Road. … Read More »
Today is International Book Lovers Day. So I guess it is my day?! I LOVE books. As do Lauren and Peggy. I just finished Malibu Rising and am in the middle of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone. Very different books but both page turning excellence!
#WineWednesday is a day late because I got a new phone and it’s been super traumatic. If you haven’t already, Storypoint Pinot Noir is a must for red drinkers and white wine drinkers who don’t like heavy tannins.… Read More »
The Delta Variant is becoming a concern for many travelers. Having a crystal ball would be extremely useful at the moment, as it is my most asked question right now…” what do you think about the Delta Variant and my trip?”
This is a personal decision, as everyone has different views on what is considered a risk. … Read More »
I recently sat down at the Dunwoody Nature Center with three of the lovely ladies working behind the scenes to bring us a fabulous 2021 Butterfly Experience. As it turns out, the weekend of August 19-22 is going to be HUGE in Dunwoody. Plan to stay in town that weekend! … Read More »
Our family was lucky enough to take a summer getaway to Asheville, North Carolina. My husband and I had visited many years ago, but we have never been with our children. Since it was really a trip for my husband, I opted to stay in a VRBO about 20 miles from Asheville on a 40-acre horse farm and not a hotel downtown.… Read More »
How do you define glamping? It can mean different things for different people. I read several definitions, but my favorite is from the Urban Dictionary…”satisfying your craving for the outdoors and your penchant for a good meal, nice glass of wine and a comfortable bed.” … Read More »
Local teen, Maria Deirisarri, recently won a talent competition at Halcyon’s Got Talent last Saturday, singing “Feeling Good” by Michael Bublé . Her mom, Beatriz, is a friend of mine and is also the head designer at Jewelry Artisans!
Maria has been in training since age five and has released four songs: Blindfolded, I T I L U (I think I am in love with you) and Te Necesito, in English and Spanish.… Read More »
Just south of Atlanta lies an important piece of American and presidential history – Franklin Roosevelt’s Little White House in Warm Springs, Ga. A drive here makes for an easy day trip from Atlanta and a glimpse into a time capsule of sorts with its significance.
Roosevelt learned of Warm Springs and its therapies for polio patients in 1924, long before he was elected U.S.… Read More »
I first visited CrossFit Dunwoody in April of 2019. Much has changed since then. First, the owner, Glenn, has gotten a haircut, a wife, and will become a father in October! Probably more noticeable are their new digs…. CrossFit Dunwoody vacated their space in the Dunwoody Village shopping center now occupied by Village Threads and moved about 100 yards away into the out-parcel that used to be Jiffy Lube. … Read More »
Tomorrow is National Fried Chicken Day, so that means marinating your chicken today.
I marinate chicken overnight in buttermilk, cayenne, paprika, salt and pepper. But some people like to brine chicken.… Read More »
First, before you read another word, grab your passport (and each family member’s passport) and look at your expiration dates! I have had more people than ever before dealing with expired passports. People are coming out of Covid ready to travel, but some are realizing their passport is expired and it is nearly impossible to get one in under a month. … Read More »
