Meet Ikira. She's a young, terrier mix, that is eagerly awaiting a new home. Sometimes, your apartment can get lonely when living alone, and sometimes, you just want to add a little bundle of fur to your family. Either way, you can adopt Ikira, and many other animals (even birds, lizards, and llamas), from the Henry County Animal Shelter. Be sure to review Amber... [Read more...]

All I can say is that the Blackened Tilapia is amazing! I’ve only been here once, but I will definitely go again. The restaurant has a very refreshing feel; in the midst of a host of other national chain restaurants, it’s a welcome change. The parking stinks, but most parking around the square isn’t all that hot. Either way, whether you’re a... [Read more...]

Okay, so all of my plans of doing any kind of outdoor activity were ruined by Saturday’s sudden down pour. I wasn’t happy. :( The best thing about the rain was that I caught up on some quality time with my pillow. :) I don’t know why, but you get the best sleep when it rains. Maybe it’s the rhythmic sounds of the rain hitting the roof that lulls... [Read more...]

Where else can you try culinary delights from upscale gourmet fare to downhome southern cooking all under one roof?

Why did someone just hurt my feelings and say that Raisin Bran is the Worst Iconic Cereal? Now, I don’t eat Raisin Bran, I eat Raisin Bran Crunch, but it’s close enough. I thought that this was one of the healthier ones! It turns out that Raisin Bran has very high amounts of sugar; this is due to the amount of sugar wrapped around each raisin. Maybe... [Read more...]

What is that, you ask? Well, Webster defines Metropolis as the chief or capital city of a country, state, or region. Local Georgians define a Mac as a little piece of heaven in laptop form. :) Well, those that own them do. So when you add the two together, you get a Mac Metropolis, i.e. a city that loves themselves some Macs! In the percentage of... [Read more...]

I love salads, though I have to admit, the amount of toppings that I add to it can be considered a little less than healthy. ;) I just recently discovered the Chicken Caesar salad from Zaxby’s this past weekend, and fell in love all over again. Granted, the salad totaled me at 500-600 calories, but it was just so HEAVENLY. Lol. I know I need to... [Read more...]

There are so many spring festivals happening around the state of Georgia right now. There are so many, that I know you can check out at least one, right? The Dogwood Festival is this weekend, and that promises to be great, so if I were you, I’d check it out! :) Here are a few more festivals in the area: 74th Annual Atlanta Dogwood Festival: Come... [Read more...]

If you wash your clothes in cold water, you will drastically reduce your bill and energy usage. I know that it may seem like your clothes wouldn't get clean by only using cold water, but trust me, they will. How else would your colors get clean? I know that I've thrown in a few of my white socks with my colored clothes, and they came out just fine. Cold water... [Read more...]

I'm an air freshener queen! Anything that makes my place smell delicious, I use it! I use everything from air fresheners to scented plug-ins, and they have to be a fruit or flower fragrance. Some days I can get down with vanilla, but most of the time...no. :) What about you? What do you do to freshen up your home? Cast  your vote on our poll!  Read More →
