I like to make my own frozen yogurt creation with 5 flavors of yogurt, some fresh raspberries, Reese's peanutbutter cups, hot fudge sauce, etc. So yummy!

This is a very popular restaurant, so you might want to avoid the peak times, like 12:00 noon to 1:00 and 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. They have great fried chicken, fish, mashed potatoes, gravy, turnip greens, omelettes, etc. It's also fun to look around their gift shop.

I used to go shopping with my grandma, on the Country Club Plaza. So, I have good memories there. The architecture is very pretty there too.

It's an interesting place to walk around and look at different little shops, including antique shops. Santa-Cali-Gon is an annual event there, every Labor Day weekend. During that time, there are 100's of booths with people selling home-made foods and crafts. There are live music shows for free, also. It's a fun place to go!!!

This is a fun, but usually crowded store, on Saturdays and Sundays. You can find some great bargains, especially in the furniture department. Also, they have a little of this and a little of that, of everything. However, you have to buy it when you see it because they will, most likely, not have it again. The sales people there are friendly and helpful.
