I Am an Easter Feaster

Don’t Be a Sucka – Wear Seersucker Easter. A day of rejoicing, singing, seersucker and Lily P, and feasting. In case you aren’t aware, Easter is the celebration of Jesus’ resurrection, so it is a pretty big deal. For many of us, the first chance to say Alleluia after Lent is the perfect time to [...]

Be the Chef at Cheffie’s

PHX I am supportive of anything that allows me to use the phrase, “it rose like a phoenix.” Well, good news for me and you, but that time has come. Let’s take it way back. When I was in high school, there was a cafe/market located near the Paradiso, where now a yoga studio rules. [...]

Ode to a Cookie

The other day I went to Muddy’s Bake Shop to get one of my favorite cookies, the sweet and salty cookie. While eating it, I posted on Facebook that I wish I knew the Tennessee Poet Laureate, so that someone could write a worthy ode to this delicious cookie. While neither is the PL, two [...]

Bombs Away! My St. Patrick’s Hangover Cure

I have always heard that to cure a hangover you need to bite the hair of the dog that bit you. Well, my St. Patrick’s Day hangover came from a weird place. While many of you (right?) were out swilling green beer, pounding Irish Car Bombs, and shooting shots of Jameson, I was hanging out [...]

Did You Ever Know that You’re My Gyro?

Raffe, not Raffi The other day I was out in my neighborhood running errands, and after having skipped breakfast I was feeling the need. The need to feed. So, I did what anyone would have done, and made the trip over to Raffe’s Deli & International Beer Market on Poplar to get a little nourishment. [...]

About Darn Thyme (Bistro)!

I don’t know about you, but the word “thyme” invokes this song and visualization every time I see it or think about it. What an awesome movie. About Thyme I’ve been meaning to get out to Thyme Bistro for a while now, so I was excited when K and I made plans to try it [...]

A Hunch about Just for Lunch

One of my cousins (again with the family, I know) and I have a standing lunch date each month. After our first outing to Lunchbox Eats, we made a total change and dared to go where few men have gone before. Chickasaw Oaks Mall during the middle of the afternoon. I’m not making generalizations, but [...]

Who’s the Boss(es)

Yesterday (TR note – technically, over a week ago, since I never finished this post on time), I did what I normally do on Saturdays. I went to art class, lunch (more on those in a seperate post), and then, like many, I settled in for a couple (ok, a half-dozen) hours of good old [...]

Hi Ho! Hi Ho! It’s off to YoLo, I Go!

Status Updates = The New Beach Airplane Message? If you are at like me and you spend any time on Facebook, then you would have noticed a few months ago that a group of locals was planning on opening two self-serve frozen yogurt shops in our humble city. If you are at all like me, you [...]

Andrew Michael – Italian Stallions

K and I went out for a little date at one of Memphis’ newer awesome restaurants, Andrew Michael Italian Kitchen (really, check out their awesome website).  Michael Hudman, the Michael of the name, is a friend of mine going back to our battles on the lacrosse field first as opponents at MUS and CBHS then [...]
