Did you know…

there’s a brand spankin’ new hang out in town?

It’s in the heart of 5 points and it’s called Brew.  You could call it a coffee shop, but it’s actually MUCH more.  Right now they are waiting on their beer & wine license, but once they’re approved, it’s on like donkey kong.  They’ll be selling craft beers and I heard that eventually they hope to serve pitchers of beer Sangria!  Now, I’m not much of a beer girl, but the sangria?…Yes please!

It’s pretty quiet in there right now because they just had a soft open last Monday and word hasn’t quite gotten out yet…but that’s even more reason to go check them out!

Not much of a coffee drinker?  Well, they have a great selection of super cool sodas (hello butterscotch beer!) and a couple of toast options as well!  I had just eaten lunch when I went to grab a drink, but if not, I would have definitely tried out the rosemary garlic toast (goat cheese and jam, what’s not to like?!).

It’s taken me years to start exploring this city I call home, but the more I see…the more I love!

I’m not a writer, but I play one online

I found a super cool blog a few months ago that’s about all things Jax.  It’s called Somewhere in the City and they highlight people, food and places within the city.  As a Jacksonville native who doesn’t know near as much about this city as I should, I like learning about new local people and places.

They put a call out for guest bloggers recently and I answered!  My guest post on my new IRL friend & fellow blogger, Erin, is up today!

Ch..ch..check it out….
