• Casa Mia does it again.

    Friday, January 23rd, 2009

    Last Wednesday, most of the Executive Board from PRSSA went to Casa Mia to celebrate two birthdays, our friends Leslie and Kelli.
    We originally went because of an e-newsletter I received from Casa Mia about a “15 for 15″ deal where you could taste 15 wines for $15. Seeing that as a good enough incentive, we [...]

  • Peppino's: I almost forgot!

    Friday, May 16th, 2008

    In the midst of my posting madness this week, I almost forgot to write about my lunch on Saturday at Peppino’s with the Arch Society.
    We had to work both graduation ceremonies on Saturday, and apparently it’s tradition to venture to Pepppino’s for lunch in between the two.
    In case you don’t know about Peppino’s, here’s some [...]

  • What to do for Earth Day

    Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

    In case you didn’t know, today is Earth Day! I will first give my sincere props to Dr. Sallot’s PR Campaigns class that organized the Earth Day Fair today at the Tate Center.
    The UGA Go Green Alliance had tables with a petition for a sustainability officer, energy efficient light bulbs, bird feeder making, face [...]

  • We Finally Made it to Clocked!

    Thursday, April 17th, 2008

    After months of waiting and many comments saying, “I don’t really like Five Star Day. Clocked is my favorite!!” Dr. Sweetser and I finally made it to Clocked.
    If you want either a good sandwich or some rockin’ tater tots, Clocked is the place to go.
    Here’s some basic info:
    Location: 259 Washington St., right beside the [...]

  • To the Bluebird Cafe Once More

    Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

    After pancakes on Saturday, Dad and I decided to go for brunch after church to the Bluebird Cafe.
    I’ve posted about it before, and I think my favorite part is still their biscuits. I’ve never had anything like them! Huge, whole wheat, thick…you can’t get much better.
    I wanted quiche on Sunday morning, but the [...]

  • Dad, Pancakes and The Grill- a Perfect Saturday

    Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

    This past weekend, my Dad came to Athens for the Father-Daughter Weekend with my sorority. I was actually in charge of planning it, and I wanted the whole weekend to be an optimal opportunity for Dads to visit with their daughters and their friends. So, everything we did tried to imitate something you [...]

  • Vegan, anyone?

    Tuesday, April 15th, 2008

    One of my readers asked if there was any place in Athens that served vegan carrot cake.  Immediately, my mind went to The Grit.
    So, I called them right up (706-543-6592) and asked if they had any.
    “Um, yeah.  In fact, we have some right now!”–straight from the horse’s mouth.
    I also asked if they had it every [...]

  • Jot 'Em Down

    Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

    For all you Carolina style barbeque fans, I’ve found a local haven for you.
    Jot ‘Em Down Barbeque is the place to go!
    Located on Whitehall Road (Drive down South Milledge Avenue until it dead ends, turn left, and go about a mile. It’s on your left.), Jot ‘Em Down pretty much looks like a sketchy [...]
