Wing Haven from the front gate
This weekend, the family and I went to Wing Haven, here in North Carolina, and I have found a new place I love, and it will be a repeat visit.
The Wing Haven Gardens are a pair of gardens outside of uptown Charlotte, near Queen's College. They are not botanical gardens as much as they are, what I would call, "real" gardens, planted and cultivated by a pair of homeowners in their backyards. I could go into the details of who created them and why, but if you cick the link above, you'll find the official website, which gives you far more information than I could manage.
Instead of sharing all of the information, I will share some of the pictures I took during our visit.

What ever happened with the Whole Foods eating plan? How did you guys do?
The whole foods thing fell to the side since my wife became pregnant. It is horribly hard to do the whole foods thing when the cravings have been so random. We are trying to get back into it a little at a time.
