This morning was a fun one on CBS Better Mornings Atlanta, I met Shane, of Shane’s Rib Shack. Shane’s supports my son’s local baseball program, so it was nice to have the opportunity to say thanks in person. In addition, I had a delicious breakfast of ribs. You can get your own free ribs too! Be one of the first 100 people to visit Shane’s Rib Shack on Sat. May 15 and receive a 1/2 rack of ribs, large beverage and a Shaniac t-shirt.

But what about the Field Trips with Sue segment this morning on CBS Better Mornings Atlanta? Here’s what I highlighted:

Thanks to Atlanta on the Cheap for introducing me to the Little Shop of Stories on the Decatur Square. Although I haven’t made it out there yet, it’s now on my list of things to do. We’ve missed Rick Riordan twice now, but there always seems to be a great event coming up. Next is a book signing with Julie Andrews.

Julie Andrews, best known for her screen performances in Mary Poppins, The Sound of Music and most recently The Princess Diaries will be signing her newest book The Very Fairy Princess. This is a ticketed event. Tickets are free, but must be secured on May 16. The Little Shop of Stories Blog has an entire post detailing the procedure.
