Roll Tide!
What a season. Ups and downs, times I thought Bama wouldn’t win, times I thought it’d be close and everything in between. The 2015 football season as a Bama fan was awesome. A special shout out to The Rusty Nail. If you’re in NOLA during the fall, this is the place to be to watch…

Cheers to 2016!
I have a feeling this is going to be the best year yet. Let the wedding planning commence!

A follow up…
Apparently I hit a few nerves with my post. And I’m ok with that but feel there is some clarity on what I wrote that’s needed. So here goes: –I wasn’t directing that post at any one news organization. It’s about the business as a whole. News coverage has gone downhill, but that discussion is…

When the media is just wrong
I like to keep this blog focused on the fun I have as a relatively new resident of NOLA. However, today is a different story. As a former TV news producer, I understand the need to get the story, no matter what means. But in my opinion, the media went beyond what’s news today. And…

41 is good
The first few days of being 41 are a far cry from the massive weekend of partying I did to usher in 40. But I wouldn’t have it any other way. A great dinner with my man on my birthday, an epic beat down of LSU by my Crimson Tide and a chill Sunday walking…

Biking the Big Easy
A week ago, I woke up ridiculously early for a Saturday and hopped on my bike to ride through New Orleans for an unusual tour of the city. For the first annual Bike the Big Easy, streets were closed and over 1400 people on bicycles trekked through the Quarter, CBD and down St. Charles in…

When the Saints come marching in..
One of the fun things to do in New Orleans is go to a Saints game. I’ve been fortunate to be able to go to quite a few since moving here and Sunday night’s game was one of the best. The Saints haven’t had the best of times the past few seasons, but the win…

When “bad sports” fans attack
Anyone who knows me, knows that I’m a passionate football fan. Actually, it’s more like above-average passion. I’ll admit it. I want my teams to win. Always. However, I’m also realistic and know that some (read: most) years, it’s just not in the cards to win every game. So I appreciate it when my team…

My Katrina Story… and how I fell in love
I’ve often heard that some of the most beautiful things in life happen in some of the worst times. I don’t know if that rings true all of the time, but I know from experience that it happened to me. Since I was a kid, I knew that New Orleans would be my “home”. I…

Just what we needed.
This past weekend, Chuck and I ventures over to Biloxi for the Frampton concert. We’ve both been under a lot of stress at our jobs so decided to make a weekend out of the trip. The concert was amazing and we spent Saturday hanging out. From the sports bar to the pool and finishing out…
