Room with a view

 

A view like this is the cause for much reflection on well-spent semester -- the last semester of my college career. Yesterday was my last day of class and tomorrow will be my last day interning with the Madison CVB. My college experience has been, in one word, blessed and spent with such wonderful people. I have loved, learned, lost and loved so much more. Here's to you December 2010 graduates. This is only the beginning.

The Bucket List

If you live in Athens, get to Add Drug immediately. I honestly believe the pimento cheeseburger is the best burger I've ever had. I couldn't stop thinking about it for days... Confessions of a fat kid.. Seriously. This drug store soda counter is Mayberry precious and the sweet, little ladies that serve you make the small-town feel all the more convincing.

The Bucket List: Men v. Athens' Food

So before my Sailor and I get hitched and move away from God's country, better known as Athens, Ga., we have decided to embark upon a great journey, a journey that is not meant for the faint of stomach. With one semester left, we are going head to head with Athens' finest eateries. From the stuff that made Italy famous to the down home cookin' of Athens natives, we are attempting to taste it all!

Our first stop was a local pizza place that we've probably driven past 500 times without noticing. And let me just tell you how much I regret my oversight. Mama Sid's should be in every UGA students list of go to food joints. It's cheap and delicious and all-you-can-eat. Need I say more?



These are called "dough nuggets". Not so much on the diet, but oh so much on the bucket list. Every UGA senior must go to Mama Sid's immediately.

Today and everyday in the Classic City, Athens' food wins.

Meet the new Intern!

I just started a new internship with the Madison Georgia Convention & Visitors Bureau and I am super pumped! Madison is full of beautiful antebellum architecture, incredible restaurants, great downtown shopping and it was the only town that Sherman refused to burn!
