Athens Twilight

April 26, 2008 |

  Went to Athens Twilight this evening. This is a first for us. People got really into it, cheering the riders. We hung out in front of The Nowhere Bar, which is in between turns one and two. I felt slightly at a loss for not knowing the nuances of bicycle races, but it didn’t [...]

March 20, 2008 |

We want our Eastside La Fiesta Back!!!!! No way we are eating Mexicali, so we head across town to try out the Timothy Road La Fiesta, I mean Dos Palmas.

New Restaurant Tuesday 3/4/2008 Mama Sid’s – Athens, GA

March 4, 2008 |

Hmmm, this is a tough one. In general we would rather eat at/support a local place with history and community involvement. We would also like a clean table and some sort of waitron. We walked in and the place had a few tables with people, an empty table by the door, and several empty booths [...]

New Restaurant Tuesday 2/26/2008 The Sultan – Bogart, GA

February 26, 2008 |

Do they have Turkish Coffee? I have been jonesing for a cup ever since we moved away from the Fat Omars. The Sultan is in kind of a weird location and we have often thought about stopping, but we are never on that side of town during lunch. Last week, I decided that it was [...]

New Restaurant Tuesday 2/12/2008 Taste of India- Athens, GA

February 13, 2008 |

Amazingly, Taste of India has been open for 15 years. They must have painted the front or something because we had no idea it existed. We thought it was a fairly new open. Who knew? We went for lunch fairly early, for us, around 1PM. They were quite busy. We were seated right away and [...]

How We Made The Yard Go Blinky: Part Dos (a)

February 6, 2008 |

For those of you who really want to know how we did it, here is the real answer….in order from the beginning of the circuit (the computer) to the end (the lights), not necessarily in the order we actually built the parts. Much of the information below came from numerous Christmas Lighting groups. Links to [...]

New Restaurant Tuesday 2/5/2008 Agua Linda Taqueria- Athens, GA

February 5, 2008 |

Very often a burrito is a good thing, sometimes even great. We needed some frozen dough disks to make some empanadas (I KNOW that empanadas are the new global warming! Stop telling me that.) We were headed to Normaltown to stop by the Mexican Grocery, so we parked at Agua Linda to have lunch. We [...]

New Restaurant Tuesday 1/29/2008 Cali-n-Tito’s – Athens, GA

January 29, 2008 |

We were going downtown to try Shokitini, but they only serve lunch on Fridays, so we pointed the Black Mistress (NewCarOfPunkerdooToReplaceOldCarOFPunkerdooSmashedByOakTree) towards Lumpkin to try Cali-n-Tito’s place. Its in the old K’Bob building across from the SDT house. The building has been given a curb appeal makeover so that it resembles a shack of sorts. [...]
