What You Can Expect to See in Downtown Atlanta

What can you expect to find in downtown Atlanta? 1.

Haven’t we all watched Food Network’s The Great Food Truck Race and wondered exactly where these mystical trucks actually serve food? I know I wondered.

On June 1-2, I attended the Blogging while Brown conference in Philadelphia, PA. This was my second time attending this conference; my first time was in 2010 in Washington, DC.

Here is my video review:

 

The I'm Going badge for the Blogging While Brown conference

I met up with Nikki in Conshohocken last Thursday and as usual, we frolicked and played and ate food.
When it was time for me to leave, Nikki took me back to the station to await the arrival of the train and this is what happened…

Ok, so do you see why some people need guardians at all times?! I should pack her up and bring her to Atlanta. She needs supervision!

This has got to be the largest margarita I’ve ever been given in my life. I hope the food arrives soon.
