Breakfast Spots

Atlanta's best breakfast restaurants.


Thumb's Up Diner. Generous portions. Several locations.

The Food Shoppe. Creole.

By George. Inside the Candler Hotel. Elegant.

ADios Cafe. Mexican inspired. 800-100.

Atlanta Breakfast Club. 630-300.


Our kids needed to attend in state colleges. Will looked at UAB but he had the Zell Miller scholarship to go to UGA. Anna had the Hope. Not sure how we would've afforded their schooling had it not been for those scholarships. 


Tuesday night supper was chicken & rice, kale, and cole slaw. Watched another episode of the show Best Medicine.
Article: the 1960s and 70s produced one of the most emotionally durable generations in modern history — not through better parenting but through benign neglect that forced children to self-regulate, problem-solve, and develop emotional calluses that modern comfort has made impossible to repeat.


Article: finding meaning in retirement.


Denison: do Muslims and Christians worship the same God, as many claim? In The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism, Tim Keller notes: "If you don't live for Jesus, you will live for something else. Jesus is the one Lord you can live for who died for you—who breathed his last breath for you." Muhammad did not die for Muslims. Buddha did not die for Buddhists. Jewish rabbis do not atone for their fellow Jews by their deaths, much less for the rest of humanity. But "God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8).


LOU GEHRIG [SABR Biowas the first  player to have his number retired. He was the only Yankee to wear #4. When the Yankees introduced permanent uniform numbers in 1929, Gehrig was assigned #4 because he batted cleanup (fourth) in the lineup. His first ever stolen base was a steal of home. Stole home in the 7th inning on 24-Jun-1925 off Washington's Allen Russell/Muddy Ruel - before Russell had retired a single batter. Gehrig twice hit for the cycle, on 25-Jun-1934 vs. the White Sox, and 01-Aug-1937 vs. the Browns.
