Okay, you know me too well. We did invite some boys, too. But the night belonged to the girls as two of my favs helped to host an event for 3vodka at the MF Room in Buckhead. I had a friend in town from Oregon, so this seemed as good a way as any to introduce her to my crowd here in the ATL. She was a little put[…]

We look friendly in the photo, but read on… The best way to experience a new city is with a local, and I met a bunch of them this week as a judge of the “Locals Know Best” contest at the Indigo Hotel. I shared my judging duties with Grammy nominated singer/song writer, Natasha Bedingfield, so needless to say, I’ve had her song “Pocketful of Sunshine” in my head ever[…]
