Theatre Recap: ‘Freed Spirits’ Horizon Theatre in Atlanta
For those of you that enjoy getting out and enjoying the Fall Season with changes of the leaves, cool breezes and everything Halloween, Freed Spirits, now playing at the Horizon Theatre in Atlanta is out now for your ghouling pleasure. It is a play by Daryl Lisa Fazio that takes place in Atlanta’s own, legendary Oakland Cemetery. You say cemetery any other day or time and I might run, but this one had me a bit intrigued. I love watching mysteries and comedies and you will find both in this play. It is showing until October 30th and it is one that you will want to see more than once.…

Georgia Grinders: No sugar added nut butter options
Kid-friendly snacks and meals can be a challenge for all. We want what is best for our kids and it starts with us as parents. We have to ensure that they are eating food that does not contain anything harsh as part of the ingredient list. That is why I love this Georgia grown company, Georgia Grinders aka Naturalmond, because their nut butters have ingredients you can trust and ingredients you can pronounce. I love butter and I stress love butter to the point where I will sit down right beside the kids and eat a peanut or nut butter sandwich but for the most part the nut butter has sugar in it which…

Downtown Detroit Bucket List: 6 Stops 2 Days
Skydiving, snorkling with the fishes, deep sea fishing… We all have some type of list including the things we want to do in the future (near or far), so I decided to share my bucket list for Detroit in hopes that maybe you may want to do some of them yourself. Detroit has been given a bad rap and some honestly is true, however some of it is not and it should not scare you or deter you from visiting. There are plenty of wonderful attractions and great food for you to enjoy in Detroit. My father’s side of the family had a reunion in Detroit recently, so I figured…

Opening night was a success and every night/showing since, so you want to get in to see this awesome play before it leaves Atlanta.

Sunbutter Gluten Free Treat
Hello all. I am back with another Try Something New Tuesday (#tsnt) addition and today it is my pleasure to tell you about the Sunbutter brand. I was gifted with some samples and it is just in time. I am currently doing a detox which I will tell you about in detail in another post, but it includes no gluten, no dairy, no sweets (sugar), no artificial sweetners and a couple of other things. Now most of the guidelines I have been sticking to for over 3 weeks now and it has been challenging, especially the no gluten and no sugar. Thank God for Sunbutter, because I have to have…

Gluten Free Salmon Cakes
This is an ole to my mommy. I want to thank her publicly for being such an awesome person. There have been many a day as a grown up that I am exhausted with coming up with new and different recipes, which she managed to do seemingly to me effortlessly. My mommy on occasion when my brother and I were younger would make mackerel croquettes and honestly I could not get past the bones in the mackerel so I never really wanted it, but today, I actually especially on fried fish, love to crunch on those bones and look for bone in fish at restaurants and when available I would…

Gluten Free Snacking with Beanfields Snacks
Beans, beans they are good for your heart. The more you eat them the more you……. Â Beans as a snack? Who would have thunk it? Not I, until I ran across, Beanfields. I like beans, but have fallen in love with beans now after trying these snacks. You can eat them by themselves which I managed to do with the Ranch flavor or …. pair them with some homemade chunky guacamole and use them for the chips in my turkey nachos. My turkey nachos will never ever be the same after adding these bean and rice chips to the mix. Hubby and I are major snackers and when he…

Gluten Free options with Milton’s Craft Bakers
Who in the world does not enjoy chocolate chip cookies or even double chocolate cookies? These flavors of cookies have been around for forever, however not in a gluten free option. That is until recently and in fact I have had the pleasure of trying out some tasty gluten free options from Milton’s Craft Bakers. Soft cookies are an extreme weakness of mine. I have them with ice cream, with coffee and downright by themselves because they are that delicious. Only 90 calories per serving and are nut and peanut free. On a wonderful day in Atlanta, we took some gluten free baked chips as a snack instead of…

In fact, something that I can leave at the office and when I am hungry I can easily pull it out and prepare it. That quick and easy item are Instant Organic Miso…

Kia Sorento Turned My Birthday Around
You talk about a week starting off crappy: our water was out for 5 days straight and no it was not because we did not pay the bill. There is no bill. We are on well water, so after a bunch of people not knowing what the heck to do we finally get back into our own space. This is where the fun begins. The middle of the week I was approved for a Kia Sorento and when was it being delivered? Yes, my birthday and so this is a story on how Kia Sorento Turned My Birthday Around. Enjoyed almost everyday that I had the Kia Sorento taking advantage…
