Lake Lily Park is where Adam took me on one of our first dates together years ago. The picturesque lake is surrounded by old trees and framed by tons of flowers and lily pads. There’s also a weekly farmers’ market on Sunday mornings. On Tuesdays, there’s a weekly food truck pod. There were some familiar […]

Mother’s Day Dinner at Park Plaza Gardens Restaurant

The first thing I want to say about a restaurant is that the food was delicious. The last thing I want to say about a restaurant is that my table waited 20 minutes to put in drink orders, or that I found a hair in my soup. All three things I’ve mentioned so far are […]
