  • Come Check Out the DTR Water Tower on Wednesday!

    Who has $685,000 to lend me? I think this would make a GREAT location for my first restaurant… no? My friends at Glenwood Agency have listed this very cool water tower (and current home to the NC chapter of the American Institute of Architects) and are having a little open…

  • Holy Crap

    This girl has the best idea EVER.

  • A New Raleigh Restaurant and New Crafty Website Addiction

    Renee and I were chatting on the way to Cafe Caturra last night about how we both have sewing machines, but wish we actually knew what we were doing in that department. Now granted, I had to take a class or two in garment construction for my TATM degree… but…
