Some years it doesn’t snow in Georgia at all. This year, we’ve actually gotten quite a bit of snow. No matter how old you are, and no matter what time the snow rolls in, you’ve gotta go play in it! Need pajamas for your next Pajama Party in the snow? Click on the photo below!

I’m certainly not the food artist of the family, but sometimes you just have to have a little fun with it! So, my attempt at a Charcuterie Board for the non-vegans of the family. Ham, Salami, Pepperoni, Mozzarella, White Cheddar, Cheddar, Brie, and three other cheeses I couldn’t pronounce even if I remembered what they were! And some almonds, pumpkin seeds, and crackers… I mean, it made a fun snack! If you’d like some REAL inspiration to make a charcuterie board for your next family gathering, click on any photo below!

Santa brought Trillian an Espresso Machine for Christmas, so we’ve been having all kinds of fun with it. Meaning, she makes all the drinks, and I get to drink them. Doesn’t get much more fun than that! This little creation here is a Lavazza Dark Roast Almond Milk Latte, flavored with Salted Caramel and Toasted Marshmallow flavor syrups. Santa also brought the awesome Autumn Cat Tree in the background. It’s a win-win. For more information on any of the goodies used here, click a photo or a link!

The newest addition to the gang is Little Miss Evangeline Star. She’s made herself right at home, and loves sleeping on our faces. She’s a little bit feisty, and a whole lotta sweet…. A purrrrfect fit for this family. For books about cats, click on any photo!

Blue skies and a mild morning call for some porch sitting with iced lattes. We’re definitely enjoying our new espresso machine that Trillian got for Christmas!

Have you ever gone hiking with two loaves of bread? That’s exactly what we did on this lovely Thanksgiving Morning! We are so very fortunate to know a very beautiful soul by the name of Julie. And Julie bakes the most unique, gorgeous, and amazingly delicious breads we’ve ever had! Julie bakes everything fresh, and by special order only, so we headed over bright and early this morning to pick up a rectangle loaf of Maple Tahini Sourdough and a round loaf of Turmeric Ginger Sourdough. These breads are absolute beauties to behold… They have HEARTS on them! AND, They…

One of my favorite concoctions so far this fall season, fresh out of Trillian’s Kitchen this morning, is her Salted Caramel Pumpkin Oat Bowl. The base is a creamy pumpkin puree blended into vanilla almond milk rolled oats, with a side of Nature’s Path Organic Pumpkin Seed + Flax Granola. Topped with Georgia Grinders Handcrafted Natural Organic Crunchy Peanut Butter, with a dollop of Park Street Deli (ALDI) Sea Salt Caramel Hummus, and garnished with a sprinkle of Raw Pumpkin Seeds from Muddy Pond General Store in the Mennonite Community of Monterey, Tennessee. Think of a soft, warm oatmeal pumpkin…

Stargazer Lilies and some kind of Giant Sunflowers! These lilies are my favorite flowers ever! They are huge, absolutely gorgeous, and smell DIVINE! The entire yard is full of their lovely fragrance! And the pattern on the sunflowers is really incredible. Observing such beauty in nature is stunning!

As our first on-site restaurant family-dining experience in well over a year, Easter Brunch at Mama’s Boy at the Falls of Oconee did not disappoint! Patio dining was well-spaced out for safety purposes, and the staff was doing their part with a smile to provide everyone a lovely experience. It was a beautiful day, indeed, to be enjoying our meal amidst the warm breezes, overlooking the falls below. Mama’s Boy sits high atop the confluence of Barber Creek and McNutt Creek, as they join, eventually flowing into the Middle Oconee River. With a variety of fun southern menu choices, we…

Okay, so there is a reason I’m not actually employed as a barista of any sorts. I’m just a mom… Making sinfully sweet Ghirardelli hot cocoa… While squirting chocolate sauce all over the kitchen. But, you can’t go wrong with whipped cream on top! Messy kitchens make for overflowing hearts! And it’s the little moments that make life matter.

Since the last time we visited the School Bus Graveyard in January of 2020, we’ve been wondering if the art always stayed the same, or if they ever switched any out. It’s a tough call, because it is certainly fun to witness fresh creations. But, also bittersweet to see old works of art painted over with something else. But, the answer is, yes, there ARE new designs for 2021 at the School Bus Graveyard! And some of them are pretty incredible! Check out Drake Arnold’s White Tiger with its stunning blue eyes! And NACK and ARM’s infamous little faces adorn…

Hendershot’s Coffee/Bar/Music is an Athens Institution, indeed! From hot floral lattes with housemade syrups, and cozy herbal teas, to boldly roasted collaborated projects with Jittery Joe’s Coffee Roasters… (Check out 45 and 78!)

It doesn’t often get too terribly cold in Georgia. Obviously, mild winters are a major draw of living or vacationing in the South. But, we do have our occasional overnight lows that lead to frozen mornings! First frost of the season, An unsuspecting chill, Enveloping the last remaining petals and leaves, Freezing them in their innocence. The juxtaposition of ice crystals, Adjacent the colors of autumn, The seasons of life. It’s metaphorical, for sure; to which anyone who has endured an unexpected loss in their life can attest. But, in the reflection, find the beauty. Where science and emotion cross…

After our trip to Damn Good Dawg Farms in Watkinsville, Georgia for a little Blueberry Picking, we’ve been having a lot of fun whipping up some homemade blueberry goodness! Courtesy of the fabulous T’s Kitchen, we have some Vegan Blueberry Muffins!

Another lovely lunch from T’s Kitchen! Trader Joe’s Whole Grain Pita and Spicy Hummus with Fresh Cucumbers Yum! Vegetarian, Vegan, and Yummy!

‘Tis the season for pretties to be growing in the yard! We actually think most of these were seeds from last year’s Butterfly Mix that didn’t bloom then… But, we sure do have tons of them now!

It’s Blueberry Season in our neck of the woods! If you are looking for some AWESOME hands-on summer fun for the whole family in the Athens/Watkinsville, Georgia area, get on over to Damn Good Dawg Farms where good times are ripe and ready for pickin’! This quaint family-owned farm is harvesting three kinds of blueberries this year! The Alapaha, the Brightwell, and the Vernon.

These berries are perfect for eating fresh off the vine, preparing healthy snacks, or freezing for more kitchen fun later in the season!…

Mmmm! One of my favorite breads EVER! Especially for something that came from a grocery store! I will update when I can remember what the heck it was called! But, it was from Trader Joe’s, that much I know, and I thought it literally was called Trader Joe’s Healthy Bread, but I can’t seem to verify that right now! But, the yummy goodness we topped it with is from a local company here in Athens, known as Piedmont Provisions. They are regulars on the Farmers’ Market scene throughout Georgia, and they have their own shop in Winterville, Georgia. They make…

The girls treated my mom and me to a lovely Mother’s Day Tea Party! We headed into Downtown Athens, Georgia to pick up Donuts from Zombie Donuts, and tea from Bubble Cafe! I’ve been wanting to try the Butterfly Pea tea, and it was exquisitely lovely! A cool and refreshing fruity floral, without overbearing sweetness. With tapioca boba, of course! Grandma had a mango tea. The girls had honeydew and almond milk teas. The Butterfly Pea may very well be my new favorite drink! Thank you, ladies! It was a wonderful surprise treat!

It’s not easy living in a pandemic world… But, Lil’ Ice Cream Dude’s awesome ice cream sandwiches help make it a whole lot cooler! Whenever we have to run out for errands, we always do our best to support a small, local business along the way. Today, we decided to stop by and pick up some delicious treats from our local Ice Cream Celebrity, Mr. Beau Shell, himself. Their order-online, curbside delivery service was seamlessly executed. We placed our order, paid, and waited for the door to open! Freshly prepared ice cream sandwiches were ready much sooner than the app…

Yep… Still our favorite! Honestly, of all the boba tea shops we have visited so far… Bubble Cafe in Athens, Georgia is STILL our very favorite. Red Velvet, Almond, and Honey Dew Milk Teas… The BEST lightly sweetened, perfectly chewy tapioca pearls… We love, love, love our Bubble Cafe! It’s so crazy to think, as much we LOVE Bubble Tea, that we are fortunate enough to have such an incredible location just down the street from the house! If you are in Athens, and looking for a sweet treat, support this place! UPDATED: Bubble Cafe has expanded into their NEW…

One of our absolute favorite places in Athens, Georgia is the Taqueria Tsunami Latin-Asian Kitchen. They have THE best selection of Latin-styled tacos, nachos, and other dishes, made with a variety of mouth-watering Asian flavors. We can’t get enough of their Korean Kogi BBQ, Bulgogi Steak, Tempura Shrimp, and Vietnamese Style Pork. So many flavors on this unique menu seamlessly unite into a magically delicious experience!

With fun college-town vibes, affordable prices, and mouth-watering flavor combinations, Taqueria Tsunami is…

We’ve been spending more and more time seeking out super cool street art projects around the country. But, wait, what? A School Bus Graveyard? The School Bus Graveyard is a junk yard in Alto, Georgia, full of old school buses that have been painted up by talented artists in and around the Athens, Georgia area. Alto is a small town about an hour north northwest out of Athens. If you are coming from Atlanta, Interstate 85, splits into I-985, which eventually becomes US23 / GA365. And just a hair past Jae-Mor Farms, you will find The School Bus Graveyard, an…

We celebrated Thanksgiving a day early in our house… Because sometimes life works out that way. But, before we joined each other in the kitchen to prepare our own meal, we spent the day filling Little Pantries around the Athens area with some Holiday Love. I don’t tell you this so you’ll laud our good deeds. However, I do share this in hopes you’ll notice something else. In downtown Athens, inside one of the Little Pantries that I personally see frequented by homeless in our area, I found something that completely warmed my heart. And I hope you, too, can…

We try to shop at Opa Robby’s Market every week! The produce is awesome, the homemade food items are incredible… And all the local Athens-Made Art Work is so much fun to peruse!

Consider supporting a local artist when YOU shop this year!

Mmmm… RISE Baking Co out of Athens, Georgia makes THE most wonderful naturally leavened sourdough bread loaves! We first found Julie at the Opa Robby’s Fall Market; and we bought an Olive Fig Loaf from her then, took it home, and absolutely DEVOURED it! She was set up at Opa Robby’s Market again today, and the timing was AWESOME. We grabbed a Cranberry Pecan and a Roasted Sweet Potato loaf… And it was a flawless compliment to our Thanksgiving Spread! At the end of dinner, the Sweet Potato bread was almost gone… And the Cranberry Pecan won’t make it past…

Hand-crafted and aged Utah Cheddar rubbed with Espresso and Lavender… Beehive Cheese Barely Buzzed! Mmmm… Now that’s a snack!

Ah, yes, another morning at a fabulous Athens restaurant… Athens, Georgia truly is THE Dining Destination of the South! I came to Mama Jewel’s this morning looking for some Chicken and Waffles, but I ended up not being able to resist the Smoked Salmon English Muffin, and the unique sound of the Ooey Gooey with housemade Jalapeno jelly and brie smothering a fried chicken breast! The service was awesome, of course, and the Southern Pecan Coffee was refillable!

Bourbon, Caramel, Dark Chocolate, Ginger Honey, Mayan Chocolate, Mocha, Raspberry, and Hazelnut Orange Truffles… With a Chocolate Caramel Latte… And a cup of absolutely DIVINE Sipping Chocolate with Hand-Crafted Marshmallows.

There are a LOT of super cool things about living in Athens, Georgia. Historic Athens Porchfest has to be the COOLEST! Throughout four historic neighborhoods, Pulaski Heights, Newtown, Boulevard, and Buena Vista, almost 70 bands played on 70 porches throughout the day. And the schedule culminated with a very exciting event on the porch of Athens Mayor, Kelly Girtz! How’s that for community?! This was the first event of this type here, and hopefully it’s not the last! I’d love to see them do this regularly throughout the year. But, at the very least, I think we ALL have high…

We started the evening with the Hawaiian Scallops – Seared Diver Scallops with a Pineapple Salsa, finished with a Balsamic Glaze and Spicy Candied Bacon. Next, came two seared Blue Claw Crab Cakes topped with Remoulade, with sides of Sweet Potatoes and Cheese Grits. And one of my all time favorite meals, my typical go-to if it’s on the menu, Shrimp & Grits! Yum! Shrimp, Crawfish, Andouille Sausage, Onions, Peppers, and Tomatoes in a savory sauce, served over Red Mule Grits, with a side of Asparagus…. We are so very fortunate to have access to such incredible restaurants here in…

At the corner of South Finley and Dearing Streets in Athens, Georgia, The Tree That Owns Itself, according to legend, has legal ownership of itself and all land within eight feet of its base. The original White Oak Tree, also called the Jackson Oak, is thought to have started life in the 1500’s. In the 1830’s, Colonel William H. Jackson loved the tree so much, and wanted to ensure its perpetuity; so he deeded the tree unto itself. In 1942, the original was downed by a storm, but a new tree was grown from one of its acorns, and planted…

We bought the Athens House in December 2017, and started moving in around February 2018. How did we know this was absolutely the house for us, and that everything was meant to be? Because in March, our yard came alive with flowers in Ribby’s two favorite colors… Purple and Yellow. Now, a year later, in March of 2019, these Purple Irises in our yard bring a little warmth to my heart. My baby girl is with us every season, every step of the way. Love you, Ribby. Miss you so very much, my precious Baby…

Sapphira doing what Sapphira does BEST! Keeping those keyboards nice and warm! Thanks, Girl! Keep up the GREAT work!

Yay! It was Opening Day at the Athens Farmers Market in Bishop Park in Athens, Georgia. We’ve been looking forward to this event for QUITE a while! We absolutely LOVE all things fresh produce, but, surprisingly, incorporating purchases from Farmers Markets is a relatively newer thing for us. And I am even more ashamed to admit that, because, growing up, my Grandfather ran a produce stand in Martinez, Georgia; and I have countless fond memories of spending afternoons with him while he worked. Setting up tempting displays of the brightest tomatoes or the greenest peppers; helping customers make their selections;…

Such a perfect Spring Day to be checking out the State Botanical Garden of Georgia, also known as the UGA Botanical Garden, as it is a part of the University of Georgia here in Athens. Enjoy a few shots of these stunningly gorgeous Tulip Beds! We were certainly enamored by their beauty while taking these pictures! Happy Spring!

Holy Fiesta! This place is AMAZING! I’ve always loved Cali N Tito’s on Lumpkin Street in Athens, but a lot of our friends are always hyping up the Eastside location like it was something made of pure magic. And, WOW, is it EVER! There are few words to describe this absolute gem of an establishment located on a side of town I don’t tend to frequent very often. But, if you’ve ever been to Mexico in Epcot Center, it delivers much of the same incredibly festive ambiance! Once I get to the point where I’m writing Pinterest-worthy “Top Destination” lists,…

We drive through super funky Normaltown almost every single day that we are in town. It is, hands down, our favorite neighborhood in Athens, Georgia. Ike & Jane Café and Bakery has been on our to-do list since we moved in. Today was the day! And it was an extra fun time to go because they were in the midst of celebrating their Tenth Anniversary, and I never say no to a Birthday Cake Latte! Trillian had a Raspberry Mocha, and Grandma kept it simple with her Hazelnut Mocha. Our drinks were great, but we all agree, the heart of…

We took a day away from the grind to hang out with our friends at Nuci’s Space; and then we grabbed a cup of Better-Late-Than-Never Valentine’s-Inspired Jittery Joe’s Goodness! We relaxed on the patio; enjoying the beautiful Georgia weather, people-watching the hustle and bustle on Broad, and sipping away on our Red Velvet Lattes! Happy Late Valentine’s Day to US!

We are definitely a family of Baseball Lovers! It is our ultimate goal to get to a home game for every MLB team and fully experience each team’s home ballpark; but we also really enjoy checking out a variety of college teams as well. Today, we caught the University of Georgia Bulldogs taking on the University of Massachusetts Lowell River Hawks. We have a house rule that wherever we are, we root for the Home Team. But, we do have a soft spot for Lowell, Massachusetts, and, of course, anything with the word “River” in it’s name is going to…

The best part of having Athens, Georgia as a home base is all our fabulous neighbors! It’s always a pleasure to work with area non-profit, Nuci’s Space, to help further their mission of making mental health resources, as well as medical resources, more readily available for area artists and musicians that may otherwise find themselves without proper access to such services. Throughout the year, Nuci’s Space holds many fundraising events, dinners, auctions, concerts, and more. We always do our best to support their efforts. And our favorite annual event is the Drive-By Truckers HeAthens Homecoming Pre-Party and Auction. It’s always…

Ahhhh… It’s FINALLY coming together! IKEA, Lowe’s, Best Buy, and a little something I made myself… Don’t judge me on my cord management skills! And, the trim still needs some work… And, the ceiling… And, the…. Oh, heck, it will ALWAYS be a work in progress!
