Good Morning Darlings,
There’s nothing sweeter than a beach getaway, especially when your bestie’s daddy has a beach house. We adore Captain Mike and he is sailing off to Cuba next month so we decided he needed a bon voyage party.
So that’s what we did. Lots of delicious food (cuban sammies, empanadas, plantains) and yummy beverages were consumed as we hung around, told stories, sang A LOT of songs and laughed til our sides hurt.
Pics to prove it happened!
Crawfish Bread is DELICIOUS!
It’s all chill at the beach.
Making new friends.
There’s always time for shenanigans at the Flori-Bama!
Mike and Mellie take a romantic stroll on the beach.
My buddy, Captain Mike, and me at the Flori-Bama
Can’t wait to go back! A million thanks to Captain Mike, his lovely lady Karen and my bestie Mellie for making Eric and me feel so welcome!
xoxo, Patti

Good Morning Darlings!
How has the summer been treating you? I can’t believe it’s already mid-July – how can that be?
I thought we could catch up by sharing our summer fun photos so far. I would love it if you shared yours with me, too!
Oooh! Woody Harrelson was spotted on one of Atlanta Movie Tours outings! How fun is that?
Atlanta Movie Tours has been taking up my time and I apologize for not making time for us to get together. But…Woody Harrelson!!
It was so great having our dear friends Rick and Denise visit us for July 4th. It was one wild weekend!
My sweet Eric put together a paella for 40 on the 4th. It was deeeeeeeelicious.
We discovered, Bartaco – which feels like being at the beach in the middle of Atlanta. Check it out.
My new favorite place – Bartaco Atlanta
Jane had a very special birthday and we were so excited to celebrate with her at the Greystone Building at Piedmont Park. Under the stars, at a very posh, catered affair. It was swoony and a perfect way to fete one of the loveliest people on earth.
Those are the highlights of July so far – how has your summer been? I would love to hear what you’ve been up to!
xoxo, Patti

Good Morning Darlings!
It’s Grammy Day, and that means staying home and texting snarky fashion comments with Holly & John. We will whip up something fun to munch while watching, but it is not our biggest food day of the year.
What’s the biggest food day, you ask?

Good Morning Darlings!
I was musing today about what nourishes me.
What makes you really happy?

Good Morning Darlings!
Oh, you know how we are here in the south. We have to make sure everyone is fed. And fed well.
One night not so long ago, we had our dear friend, Johnny P. over for supper. I made meatloaf. To feed about 20. You never know how hungry men will be. Or who might stop by.
Did we eat it all?
