Yep, I’m still keeping track of Trick or Treaters at my house. I have the sweetest new neighbors across the street who borrowed costumes from my stash and came over when done to help me tally the final count. The previous owners of our Meadowlake home started this tradition in 1984. They were out of town in 1994 and 20 years later in 2014 we were out of town for the Auburn @Ole Miss game. … Read More »
I became a Vanderlyn parent in 2003 when my oldest entered Kindergarten. We chose our home because of its proximity to the school and walked our boys and our dog George, to and from Vanderlyn for 9 years. We were all there for the very first VanderDash! I miss being involved at Vanderlyn so much that I’m entering my 2nd year as a member of the Vanderlyn PAC (Principal’s Advisory Committee).… Read More »

I love football. Particularly high school football. I’m so proud of Coach Mike Nash and this year’s Dunwoody football team and coaches and trainers and band and cheerleaders! Last night they clinched a playoff spot for the first time in many many years.
But I also loved football and the Dunwoody Wildcats when they were losing. … Read More »

My parents were in town for about 24 hours to tour the Fox Theatre and attend the Dunwoody Woman’s Club Home Tour. We bought our tickets in advance to save $5 each. We picked up our ticket booklet at Southern Comforts the morning of the tour and ran into Mayor Lynn Deutsch who was about to give a “kick off speech”!… Read More »

I am so excited about my tomato crop this year. I’ve never had such a bountiful tomato harvest! I finally realized growing tomatoes in pots is MUCH more difficult than planting them straight into the ground. In all my previous years of trying to grow tomatoes, I would get one or two from each pot and found myself watering the pots multiple times per day because they were so thirsty the pots kept drying out. … Read More »

Recently I received a note from a fellow Dunwoodian who has kids around my boys’ ages and used to walk right by my house on a daily basis on her way to Vanderlyn with her kids. Gosh I miss those days!
I always love connecting with people and was thrilled that our mutual acquaintance, Christine Cooper, suggested Betsy reach out to me. … Read More »
