Today, I am faced with the nearly impossible task of saying goodbye. After almost six years with The Gazette, this is my last official day at work. Soon, I’ll be calling myself a Georgia resident, as my husband and I relocate for his new job. For me, it’s a time that’s mixed with both sadness and excitement. I’m relieved that I’ll finally be back in the same house as Drew, after a year of long-distance marriage while he completed his… Read More »

While “Jurassic World” – starring Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard – couldn’t match the original (no surprise there), I rank it as an easy second place in the movie franchise. High-heel debate aside, I loved the movie … new characters, special effects, thrilling scenes and all. The references to the 1992 film were a great bonus. Watch the trailer.  “Terminator Genesis” — Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Clarke, Emilia Clarke and Jai Courtney — was an enthralling, action-packed prequel, and I… Read More »

A month into summer, are your children bored and a little too attached to their TV, smartphone and tablets? If so, it’s time to get them out of the house for some old-fashioned fun. If you can’t get them signed up for a summer camp, you can bring that same experience to your own backyard instead. The experts at the Camping and Education Foundation (http://campingedu.org) offered seven tips for creating “the ultimate backyard camp out” for your children. Each family… mxvpm加速中心网站

Some people are impossible to buy for. They already have everything they need, they don’t want anything or maybe they’re a little bit picky. But, a company has come up with something that might just do the trick. Flatterbox is a personalized gift box that you order online to shower your loved one with kind words. You choose the occasion — Father’s Day, birthday, graduation, retirement, etc. — as well as the box design, and color and number of cards.… Read More »

With July Fourth just a day a way, everyone is getting into the patriotic party spirit. Red, white and blue are everywhere as the nation celebrates its 1776 Declaration of Independence from Great Britain. The names of our country’s founding fathers will never be forgotten. And there are a quite a few people around the United States who have the distinction of sharing those great men and women’s well-known names. Whitepages provided this interesting information: 9,893 people in the U.S.… Read More »

I wasn’t sure what to expect as I sat down to watch the preview screener of “The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed out the Window and Disappeared.” I hadn’t heard of the Felix Herngren film until the PR email reached my inbox the week before, but the title alone was enough to pique my interest. And when the credits rolled two hours later, I’d discovered a film whose laughs and entertainment value matched right up to that lengthy, intriguing name. The… Read More »

“Far from the Madding Crowd” – starring Carey Mulligan, Matthias Schoenaerts, Michael Sheen and Tom Sturridge – was everything I’d hoped for in a film adaptation of the classic Thomas Hardy book. With spot-on casting, superb cinematography, a beautiful score and one of the best film kisses I’ve ever seen, it’s worth multiple watches. In fact, I plan to see it again before it leaves theaters. Watch the trailer. I’ve seen most of the “Fast & Furious” films and consider… Read More »

Summer wouldn’t be complete without a comic book-inspired blockbuster film in theaters. This year, we got “The Avengers: Age of Ultron,” which had already grossed $427 million domestically as of May 31 (according to Box Office Mojo). So, how did your favorite Marvel comic movie measure up at the Box Office next to some of its rivals? Find out from this cool graphic from MorphCostumes (http://www.morphsuits.com/costume-party-themes/superhero-costumes). My favorite franchise has always been “X-Men,” which has not earned as much dough… Read More »

The saying goes that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach, but the same could be said about a woman. Ladies love being treated to a delicious meal, especially when they aren’t the ones cooking it. Brunch or dinner out may be the perfect way to say thanks to your mom this Mother’s Day. But if you’re on a budget, have no fear: Here are five tips from Andrea Woroch, consumer and money-saving expert for Kinoli Inc.,… Read More »

An ode to the sane and wonderful mothers-in-law

The nation will be showing love to moms and mother figures on May 10, as it rightly should. While Mother’s Day often emphasizes biological mothers, I want to take a moment to give a shout-out to all the amazing mothers-in-law out there. While biological moms raised us and shaped us into the people we are today, mothers-in-law must take us as we are … with little choice in the matter. Of course, we’ve all heard horror stories about relationships gone… Read More »

“Game of Thrones” has become one of my must-see TV shows. While I DVR all of my favorite programs and rarely watch them live, I almost always catch GOT when it airs at 9 p.m. Sundays on HBO. It’s filled with lust, murder, betrayal, battles and beautiful people, and I certainly don’t want to risk having any of the juicy plot developments spoiled for me by social media. I’ve been rooting for Team Targaryen since season one, but I could… Read More »

Celebrating the American classic: Grilled cheese

April 12 is National Grilled Cheese, a day worthy of celebration in the Honaker household. My husband and I are big fans of grilled cheese, or “gc” as we affectionately call the American classic. It may seem like a boring meal, but to Drew and me, it’s an always-satisfying option. Give us a salad and grilled cheese for lunch or dinner and we’re golden. But, the Honakers aren’t the only gc enthusiasts. In a recent survey from social platform Skout,… Read More »

Libera choir stops in Atlanta during tour

An upcoming concert is a little outside our coverage area, but I promised I’d help get the word out about these talented young musicians. Libera, a boy choir from London, will be at the Woodruff Center in Atlanta, Ga., at 7:30 p.m. April 10. Even if you can’t attend the show, the group is worth looking into. Check out this video for a preview of their vocal skills. Following a PBS special and the release of a new CD and… Read More »

Want an ‘I Do Redo?’

Weddings are one of the biggest milestones in a person’s life, and the memories that go with it are priceless. Unfortunately, not all couples end up having a picture perfect wedding day. In fact, some may remember the bad things that happened more so than the good. I’ve got a lot of great memories from my wedding day on June 21, 2008. If I had to do it again, I’d choose a different photographer (the one we picked ended up… Read More »

Life Lessons and Loves: The year of the stamps … and their many values

I never cross paths with my postal carrier these days, but I’d wager to say that she probably thinks I’m a little crazy. You see, for the past year, I’ve been leaving her outgoing letters with stamps of varying worths. Rather than today’s 49-cents stamps, I’ve been attaching ones from 2 to 34 cents, and everything in between. This has been a good-for-me brain exercise at times, putting my feeble math skills to test. I just ran out of the… Read More »
