lin·ger
/ˈliNGɡər/
verb
to stay in a place longer than necessary, typically because of a reluctance to leave.
You know those moments: the ones often catching you by surprise, causing you to pause a little longer than perhaps intended. Whether your upcoming weekend is one filled with activities or has the promise of being a relaxing weekend, you are invited to take a moment to linger before heading to the end of the week.

I stumbled across this Instagram account a few years ago and completely fell in love! Bridget Beth Collins is a floral artist that used flowers, foliage, sticks, twigs, moss, mushrooms, and so forth to create magically whimsical art. Some of my favorite creations of hers are her castles, her mermaids, and her winter scenes. Check out her books and prints on her website and definitely follow her Instagram account for daily doses of beauty and magic. Thank you to Bridget for the use of the above picture!
The first outdoor concert of ASO's I heard was years ago when Chris and I were dating. They had come all the way to Alpharetta to play at Will's Park. We packed a picnic of Rachael Ray grilled swordfish and tuna steaks and set off to watch these world-class, Grammy-winning musicians play in a covered horse arena (that is also used for rodeos). This year, ASO offers another FREE concert at Piedmont Park on Thursday, June 14, 2018, at 7:30. If you've followed my Instagram account, you know how in love I am with our orchestra and their music. They will be performing Bernstein's Overture to Candide and Symphonic Dances from West Side Story. Additionally, some "crowd favorites" (my favorites, as well!) of Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet Fantasy Overture, Variations on a Rococo Theme, and the 1812 Overture.
Speaking of sandwiches... y'all, this one has my vote as the best sandwich in Alpharetta/Roswell/Milton area. Heck, it has my vote for the best salad, too! At this point, I've had the Gourmet Sandwich Company cater at least a dozen music teacher events and we have never been left wanting. My favorite sandwich that is offered is definitely the "Lab Experiment." Founder/Owner Travis puts turkey, bacon, tomatoes, gouda, and avocado on a JALAPEÑO-cornmeal bread. It is ahhhh-maz-ing.
