High Cotton

Pin itOn Mothers Day weekend my parents, B, and I spent the weekend in Greenville, SC to attend the wedding of a close family friend. She was my best friend through my cancer treatment and was my only bridesmaid. Greenville has a cute downtown and was a perfect place to be for Mothers Day. Only…

Roosters

Pin itI thought it was time to share some pics from another dinner out. We had a Groupon or something like that for Rooster’s that we had been hanging onto for a while and decided to put it to use at some point after the weather warmed up. I only know this (that the weather…

Vivace

Pin it What a view. Right? I know our Uptown (downtown to most every other city) is smaller than most big cities but I still think we have a nice skyline here in Charlotte. I especially appreciated our skyline and the surrounding green space when I was enjoying brunch with B on the patio of…

Customshop

Pin itI love eating out. I love the pretty food and the whole dining experience. I especially love not having to do dishes. B and I have had a habit of eating out pretty regularly ever since we started dating and the habit has only gotten worse thanks to Groupon and Living Social. Hanging out…

Gyro pizza

Pin itHave you noticed all of the Greek food that I have been eating lately. Yemista at Greek Isles, the Greek Festival, hummus at Zoe’s Kitchen, and falafel. You would think that I’ve had enough, right? Nope, not so. On our way down to Atlanta a few weeks ago were planned to stay the night…

Falafel

Pin itI finally go my falafel! Thanks to Acropolis Cafe in Cornelius I was finally able to find out what all of the fuss over falafel is all about. The warm, crunchy falafel on top of slight chewy pita and smothered in cucumber sauce is a meal that is right up my alley.

Zebra

Pin itI can’t believe I am this behind. I am just now blogging about the amazing dinner that I had on my birthday, which was September 27. It took me a whole month to get around to it. Way back when, months and months ago, I bought a Living Social Coupon for Zebra. I think…

Potato surprise

Pin itB and I have been on a huge eating out kick lately. We have food at home, we want to cook, but we make up all sorts of excuses not to. Mainly, work has been killer. Not so much in the number of hours worked, it has just had some special kind of mind…

Zoe’s Kitchen

Pin itAny restaurant that serves a plate of hummus with tzatziki and pita is alright by me. At Zoe’s Kitchen in Birkdale I got to enjoy a delicious lunch as well as the company of a new (to me) blogger friend. It was the perfect mid-day pick me up!

Love Affair

Pin itIn recent weeks, okay months, I have been complete enamored….with Panera Bread. I never really understood what it was about Panera that so many people love so much…other than the free wi-fi of course. It’s just sandwiches, right? I blame this affair on Kristen for her post on the cinnamon crunch bagel a while back….
