Fogo de Chão: Perfect for Birthdays
Birthdays are one of the best reasons to celebrate and quite frankly, I found that Fogo de Chão: Perfect for Birthdays. Hubby wanted the experience of eating at a Brazilian restaurant and there I began researching which one I should take him to and after some time researching, I had to find the perfect one and it was Fogo de Chão. This was his first, but certainly not last experience of this type, so it had to be special. Brief History: 1979 1st Fogo was born in Porto Alegre and the 2nd was born in 1987 in Sãn Paulo. 1997 Fogo expanded stateside to Texas and from there…

Capers Restaurant and Bar
There are not many restaurants that I have frequented that have open kitchens, but Capers Restaurant and Bar does and that along with the beautifully decorated restaurant and lounging area is something that will keep you coming back. There is even a piano bar there, but unfortunately no one was performing that day, but we had enough great company that we did not miss the music. Speaking of decor, next time we go we will have to ask them if they will let us have some of those blue glasses:) Capers Restaurant Located off of Old 41 in Kennesaw, I have heard great things about Capers on Main (when initially opened)…

Take a Break Before Christmas
I do not know about you, but this year, in fact more specifically this month, has been one of the most stressful ones that I have had in years. Some of the things are my doing and I willingly put it on myself, but others have been dumped on me. I am not even including the pressure that tends to come with this time of the year. It is one of the best times, but for many the worst time of the year due to the added pressure from shopping (for people you want to shop for and those you do not want to shop for), expected and…

How to reduce stress with Just Chill
Boy of boy do I miss the seeing the beautiful sunset with my hubby off of the beach in Daytona Beach Florida. I want to go back NOW!!! The water is so calming and refreshing it just draws you in.

This was back in September when hubby and I celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary and we finally took a whole week’s vacation which had not happened since we were married 9 years ago so we decided to enjoy every minute we could.

Grape Harvest Celebration Party
Harvested grapes can make such beautiful music in one’s glass and that is what we found at the Grape Harvest Celebration Party last weekend. An intimate gathering of people from various races, genders and experiences enjoying great wine, good farm to table pairings, and enlightening conversations. This evening was a special treat for hubby and I because we’ve never been to a winery. This was a collaborated event with The Gifted Ferret, a beautiful shopping boutique and Big Door Vineyards, winery which is currently being built. We checked in and were given our own engraved wine glass that we took to each table to sample the various wines. Let’s get sampling and first…

ProNourishâ„¢, A New Nutritional Drink
I have found out a lot of interesting things about my body since detoxing while on our Hale Fertility Challenge, which helped me lose 15 pounds. I have learned that my body is more sensitive than I thought and it also happened with age. I thought I knew everything, but after having an allergy test done some things were confirmed even more. My body does not like everything and everything is not good for me. How about you? I used to love Fruity Pebblesâ„¢ and Rice Krispiesâ„¢, but later on in life, the milk that I was using (cow’s milk) started not to love me. Almost instantly there would be a…
