Panthers Win For Charlotte!
Posted by: | CommentsHey hey hey! The Panthers and the Chiefs both pull out a win for us, prompting Keith’s wife to bring in football shaped donuts from local favorite - Krispy Kreme!
Krispy Kreme actually got it’s start in nearby Winston-Salem when Vernon Rudolph bought the recipe from a french chef in New Orleans. On July 13, 1937, he began selling the tasty treats in grocery stores. The public began asking for ‘hot’ donuts, and the rest is history (really tasty history!). Nowadays, it takes a pretty strong willed stomach to pass by a lit up “Hot Donuts Now” neon sign without pulling over to buy some!
Charlotte dining… The choice is endless
Posted by: | CommentsNever did I think that 25 years ago we’d have the choices we do today. The other evening my wife and I were trying to decide where to go for dinner. She likes casual and I like more upscale. So guess who won? Well we put the top down to the convertible (by the way it would be too cold to do it back in New York) and headed out. There are so many casual places to dine that are way above fast food that we just drove around and around, enjoyed the scenery and went to a place that overlooks fountains and plays nice music and had salads and ice cream for dessert. It doesn’t get any better. So if you are into knowing what’s where just send me a note!
