Good evening all! Since today's main post was about Atlanta's home team, I thought you might enjoy a bit of Braves trivia. Here's a timed quiz that will definitely test your team knowledge...be sure to share with us how you do!
This quiz and others can be found on at Sporcle- a site truly full of "mentally stimulating diversions." Mr. Poe and I love Sporcle quizzes- especially the daily word ladders. Definitely check out the rest of the site when you get a chance; you may just find your new favorite hobby!
As a Christian, wife, mother of a little girl and two fur-babies, Mississippi State Bulldog, and PhD, I lead a very busy life. If you add on top of that my obsession for organization and loves for couponing, sewing, knitting, cooking, reading, gardening, and a host of other random hobbies, you've got the recipe for...well...variety. And variety is the spice of life!

MrsDrPoe: So We'll Root, Root, Root for the Bravos...
This Foto Friday I have something for you sports fans out there! We recently went to (my first) Braves game at Turner Field with our friends, the Granthams:
We parked at the CNN building:
And then walked through downtown Atlanta, past the capitol building:
And across the sea of swirly twirly gumdrops (just kidding) to the stadium. I've been to two other baseball stadiums in my lifetime (Minute Maid Park and Busch Stadium), and I don't remember the view from either of them being as lovely as the one from Turner Field...but I'm probably just partial to my new hometown:
That night the Bravos beat the Arizona Diamondbacks, 4-2 with 3 homers; although, I must confess that I yacked more than I watched the game:
The whole experience was quite relaxing, with the exception of parts of the walk back through downtown to the cars. Mr. Poe and I had a ton of fun, and we were so happy that we could go!
