Rent 20th Anniversary Tour – Atlanta
I have received tickets to see RENT 20th Anniversary Tour for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. To end out the month of Love out right, the RENT 20th Anniversary Tour – Atlanta, stopped by to amaze and dazzle us all. Over 10 years I have heard how great this rock musical was and I was elated when I was granted access. My first Fox Theatre production for 2018 is this amazing performance. No one did it justice and I do not think I would be able to. Emotional, hilarious, jaw dropping and everything in between. Every emotion was expressed if you watched and listened. I did…

The Ballad of Klook and Vinette
Be warned!!! If you are not in love when you come see this play, you will be when you leave. This is such the love story that it put everything and I mean everything I have seen to shame. With the exception of some of the Words in the Song of Solomon, I have not heard anything so deep. I was in awe and that does not happen easily for me. I am a hard person to impress, but I was blown away with the words and depth of heart that the characters had for each other. From their first conversation involving carrot juice to Klook saying, “We are seventeen…

Big Green Egg Tailgating Fun
I was given the opportunity to attend Tailgating on the EGG class at Big Green Egg Culinary Center, in partnership with CulinaryLocal and had an awesome time and left so full. Chef Amanda and Taylor greeted me with a smile and welcomed me to the class. When you think of entertaining and cooking what do you usually think of? Ovens, stove top cooking and bbq grills, but it is time to expand your way of thinking when it comes to entertaining and cooking. I had a chance to learn it first hand by attending my first Big Green Egg class in Atlanta. Prior to attending the class, I had no…
