All About Community at Café Jonah and the Magical Attic

It may be hard to find a better way to support the community than by dining at Café Jonah and the Magical Attic. Conceived by the iconic Jenny Levinson of Souper Jenny, our family has come to love this cozy lunch and brunch spot in the heart of Buckhead. Jenny has given the Atlanta community so much in terms of “real food” to feed our stomachs and souls, and Café Jonah is just another example of how she gives back to the community.

Nothing Says “Happy Birthday” like Sublime Doughnuts

Nothing Says “Happy Birthday” like Sublime Doughnuts

If you’re a parent of young children like me, you may have a strong sense of deja vu spending your weekends at gymnastics and bouncy house parties with lunches and dinners (typically on the same day) filled with mediocre pizza and Publix birthday cake. Once we whip out a box of Sublime Doughnuts in lieu of cake, both children and parents eagerly bite into a fresh smores, butter toffee, orange dream, dulce de leche, or the signature A-Town (similar to Boston) cream.

An Authentic Mexican Breakfast at La Kermex Restaurante Mexico

Some of my fondest memories as a child involve sharing immense Mexican breakfasts with my family around the table in Acapulco.  Since lunchtime was usually not until late afternoon (immediately followed by a nice long siesta), this was our opportunity to fill up on the freshest Mexican cuisine.

R. Thomas’ Deluxe Grill: Healthy Eating Ahead of Its Time

Foodie Fun: How to Make Sushi at Home

Sushi night is a great option when you don’t feel like cooking a full on meal for family or guests. It is as simple as buying and preparing some quality sushi rice (no, Uncle Ben’s Minute Rice won’t cut it) and then selecting and slicing your fish. Continue reading »

Chillin’ at Chomp and Stomp 2012

My husband and friends claim I’m competitive, so I guess I know where Big A gets it. So in the spirit of family-bonding (and a little friendly competition), I decided to sign up My Little Foodies for Cabbagetown’s Chomp and Stomp Chili Cook-off and Festival. Continue reading »

Glitter Pizza and More at Ammazza

Glitter Pizza and More at Ammazza

The Glitter Pizza was a perfectly cooked cheese pizza (plenty for 3 kids) sprinkled with shiny green and turquoise edible glitter that sparkled in the eyes of My Little Foodies. It just proves the magical quality of glitter; think what might happen if we started sprinkling it all over broccoli and brussel sprouts. Continue reading »

Licking Up High Road’s Factory Tour & Tasting

am not a homebody, and admit that I suffer from a bit of shpilkes on the weekends. I find myself constantly running around town trying to engage My Little Foodies with different activities. I thought My Little Foodies—particularly Big A—would be entertained by a behind the scenes tour of their (and almost every kid’s) most beloved treat! Continue reading »
