EATS
The Atlanta Food Truck Park.
Where else can one find "The Blaxican" Mexican Soulfood stationed next
to Gladys Knight's famous Chicken n' Waffles? This spot is hoppin' with
good food and fun people and is the perfect place to spend an evening
celebrating this cooler weather (with an even cooler beer, of course).
Charming
Decatur, how I love thee. Add this neighborhood hang-out with a stellar
craft beer menu (it was voted one of America's 100 best beer bars) and
authentic Irish eats to the mix and I'm happy as clam.
Another
Decatur gem, this exposed-brick semblance of a French bakery serves
healthful lunch in addition to unique pastries and breakfast treats.
Salt and pepper cookies, anyone?
Nestled
in Virginia-Highlands, Paolo's gelato flavors are as yummy as its
neighborhood is cute. Paolo is an Italy native and veterinarian surgeon
turned professional gelato maker (and not to mention a creative genius).
Atlanta thanks you, Paolo.

WORDS
"...be about ten times more magnanimous than you believe yourself capable of being. Your life will be a hundred times better for it...You will learn a lot about yourself if you stretch in the direction of goodness, of bigness, of kindness, of forgiveness, of emotional bravery. Be a warrior for love." - Cheryl Strayed in "tiny beautiful things; Advice on love and life from Dear Sugar"
