BEER: SYCAMORE BREWERY





I'm not a beer person however my big brother is he enjoys good beer and he loves IPA's (India Pale Ale), I ran across Sycamore Brewery and decided to buy him a Rainbow dust IPA, he loved it, on their website it actually "says pure magic in a can" my brother agrees an it is now in his top 5 best IPA's of all time. 


The awesome thing is the company is right here in Charlotte, so if you are ever in town and need to quench your thirst get a cold Sycamore, with their bustling taproom & beer garden offering in-house sandwiches & international food-truck fare. visit them at:

SWEET TREATS: Edibles



To all those who are asking yes,  I do make edibles. Here are three samples of my work, in front is an Oreo cookie brownie iced with chocolate chips on the top, on the side is a miniature blueberry muffin, and last but not least a fruity pebbles treat with colorful marshmallows an a icing drip. My big brother ate all three and told me he felt fantastic for hours.

THE END OF AN ERA: THE KICKSTAND BURGER BAR IS NO MORE







It is truly the end of an era the Kickstand closed its doors forever a few weeks back and it caught my brothers and I completely by surprise. We were looking up closing times because we are going to swing by and get some takeout and we saw permanently closed in a bright red font on the search results under the picture and title. This place was our hangout, we've celebrated birthdays there, taken friends and family, we've even taken dates there, we made memories. The staff was great and always courteous and accommodating, the spirits were good, they always had great beer on tap, and the burgers were awesome, this place and the people will be truly missed.





(as seen on the website)


It has been a true pleasure to serve the Plaza Midwood community for the last decade. It is with great regret that due to construction and renovation on our side of the building, we will be closing our doors for good, effective today. Thank you to everyone who has supported us through the years and the hard work of all of our employees. Until next time Plaza.
