Bright & Early: A Grain Of Salt Edition
Good morning, Nashville. The kids are back in school today! Miracles happen. For those keeping track at home, Metro used up their ninth snow day yesterday out of, well, four that were built into the schedule. February 11th and 21st will be make-up days and three more have been tacked onto the end of the [...]
OktoberStreetFesting: A Guide To Side-By-Side German Festivities This Weekend
It’s an old story if you’ve been in Nashville for longer than a year or two – No, Nashville’s Oktoberfest in Historic Germantown and the Germantown Street Festival are not the same festival. They were, but that’s a tale for another time. The separate-but-equal-ish festivals take place this weekend to celebrate Oktoberfest, same time, same [...]
Happy Hour: Our Favorite Vege-Table
We might be bad at a lot of things here in Tennessee (especially health-wise!), but when it comes to eating our veggies, we’re apparently the best in the nation according to the CDC. Way to go, us!

Yazoo Outgrows Marathon Building, Heading To Gulch

And if today’s announcement that Yazoo is packing up and moving to a larger space in the Gulch means more Yazoo for us, well, you won’t find [...]
The Weekendist: Apples To Apples Edition
With the rain on its way out, it’s shaping up to be a gorgeous weekend, and that tells us there’s plenty of time to cram in a festival or two before the weather gets cold. You’ll probably find us zipping between hot dog stands and cheering for the official Nashvillest ducks as they race down [...]
Happy Hour: Bad Analogies Edition
City Paper sounds off on Germantown: “No doubt, the profile of this historic North Nashville neighborhood has recently been elevated as dramatically as the John McCain presidency after his Sarah Palin pick.” [City Paper] TSU found that flash drive they lost! In… Memphis? But what can you do? Those things practically have legs. [Tennessean] The [...]
Nashville Newcomers: DrinkHaus Espresso & Tea
Coffee shops reproduce. That’s the only explanation we’ve been able to come up with as we watch infant businesses spring up on every corner. Not that we’re complaining. We took a trip to Germantown this weekend to welcome the newest of the bunch into the fold. Meet DrinkHaus. Germantown was quiet on Saturday afternoon with [...]
