We like to take day or weekend trips to various places across North Carolina. It’s a nice easy drive and it’s fun to discover so many great things that are just a short drive away. We like to visit Charlotte, the Queen City. Joe grew up in Charlotte so he has a lot of friends that still live there that we like to visit. We most often drive out there for the day but sometime soon I would love to stay overnight at the Ballantyne Hotel.
Talk about luxury and relaxation. I would love to spend the afternoon laying by the pool and being pampered by their spa. Then after all of that rejuvenation spend a night on the town enjoying all of the great fun that Charlotte has to offer.

You probably already know this from my previous posts (here and here) but I love pomegranate. I especially love it in the winter. There’s something festive about pomegranates. Until a few years ago I had no idea what a pomegranate was and I didn’t really know what to do the first time I tried one….
