Forty-Five minutes north of Birmingham, Alabama is the small town of Hanceville. I had passed through when I went to visit The Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament founded by Mother Mary Angelica. After spending a few hours at the shrine, I had worked up an appetite. As I was heading back toward the highway, I noticed a sign for Luna’s BBQ and thought that would be a perfect place to stop. Considering the parking lot was full of cars, I figured this was a good choice. The staff was extremely welcoming as soon as I walked through…

Well I promised myself if I was ever able to visit Manhattan Beach, California again I would head back to Rock N’ Fish. I was glad I got there in time to see the sunset. It was so beautiful to see the sun fade into the Pacific Ocean. This visit I was able to sit on their outside patio. It was the perfect weather for it too, not too hot and not to cold.

Avo had an Italian mimosa on the menu that I had to try. This mimosa was sparkling wine with grapefruit juice, and an Aperol floater. It was not as sweet as a regular mimosa, the grapefruit juice made it tart, but it was good and a great way to start off brunch.…
Leave a CommentDriving through the Germantown neighborhood in Nashville, I would never have expected to see a cupcake shop intermingled with homes. It was later in the day so I was afraid they would not have any cupcakes left. Lucky for me they still had a few left. I patiently waited in line as I decided which cupcake to order. It smelled so good in the shop. The gentleman in front of me in line says he visits The Cupcake Collection all the time and gave me his top choices. They offer classic flavors as well as premium choices like coconut crème…
