Waking Up in Nashville

Just yesterday I was thinking about how good life is right now...

Last week, in one evening Duke and I grabbed a bite at local dive The Bunganut Pig, met with a friend for drinks at 55 South for the Heritage Foundation, then cooled off in our apartment's beautiful pool.  It was just pure bliss.

Arrested Development, of course!

Saturday, I was able to meet up with some of my blogger buddies (Lladybird, Let's Go Ride a Bike, Blue Jeans & Melodies, Librarian Tells All, Kitty Cat Stevens, and That Girl in the Wheelchair) at Rumours for wine, bites, and lots of talking.  Read Jen's write-up of the night... it was just perfectly delightful and fun!  How lucky to have found such a great group of women in my first year in a new city!

Burger Republic's Four Cheese Garlic Burger w/Truffle Tots

Sunday, Duke and I went to the fantastic Burger Republic.  I had a Four Cheese Garlic Burger with Truffle Tots.  INSANE. IN THE MEMBRANE.  I think I still taste the garlic.  OMG.  We even browsed bikes at Halcyon.

Duke, home brewing

Then, in the past week, I had an awesome time testing out bikes at Harpeth, enjoyed a leisurely long weekend in Franklin, and celebrated Bear's 6 month birthday.  :)

Happy 6 Month Birthday, Bear!

Okay, so what's the point of this random list of things I've done recently?  I AM HAVING SO MUCH FUN.  SO MUCH HAPPY.  It's awesome.  I truly believe Nashville is one of the coolest places I have ever lived, and that's including France.  For real.  I just can't get over the kind and warm people I've met, the incredible foodie scene, the endless list of things to do...  it's perfect.  PERFECT!  Why have I been taking this for granted?

I'm awake, Nashville!  I see how awesome this place is!  And it's gonna get even more awesome now that I've had this epiphany.

Don't forget about my magazine subscription giveaway happening NOW!!!

    1. I think Arrested Development is what brought me to my boyfriend. :) I love the shirt; it's from Busted Tees.

      I can't wait to meet you, either! Everyone talks about what a beautiful and fantastic person (and mom!) you are. :)
