1. Sunset picnic with a charcuterie box – Piedmont Park, Freedom Park, Centennial Olympic Park and Candler Park - Head over to your city's local park about an hour before sunset. This will allow you enough time to settle in, dive into your charcuterie box, and watch the sky transform against the skyline.

2. Brunch at your local farm-to-table restaurant: First Watch, Cultivate, Oy, Atlanta Breakfast Club, Flying Biscuit Café, and West Egg - Farm-to-table restaurants are a great way to eat delicious food that is in season and supports local farmers. Plan your next brunch date at your closest FTB spot and enjoy all of your brunch favorites, including mimosas!

3. An afternoon at an adventure park- Ponce City Market Roof, Six Flags, Roswell Mill Waterfall and Chattahoochee Bamboo Forest - Spend the afternoon at an aerial obstacle and zipline park. This is a great option for those looking for adventure and want to spend at least the whole afternoon outside!

4. Saturday afternoon baseball game or Soccer Game: Truist Park and Mercedes Benz Stadium - Sporting events are back! Who doesn’t love pretending they understand baseball or Soccer just to enjoy stadium food?

5. Catch a flick at a drive-in theater: Starlight Drive In - Feeling a bit nostalgic? A lot of drive-in theaters across the country have reopened due to the pandemic. The experience has all of your traditional movie theater favorites: popcorn, candy, and corndogs in the comfort of your own car.

6. Mini Golf: Top Golf, Mountasia, Puttshack Atlanta, Skyline Park and Malibu Grand Prix - Mini golf is a great option for a date during the daytime or at night! Be sure to find a course that also has a food and bar for you to enjoy once you finish your game and maybe even a few Instagramable pictures.

Last night, Oscar award-winning actress Regina King opened the 93rd Academy Awards with with effortless style and grace. Celebrity Hairstylist and Flawless by Gabrielle Union co-founder, Larry Sims gave her a classic bob look to complement her gorgeous custom Louis Vuitton gown.

"For Regina's look, the lines and shoulder detail inspired the look. We wanted to go with something sleek, modern & clean that wouldn’t compete with the structure and craftsmanship or the dress, says Larry Sims. We also wanted to show off Regina’s beautiful neckline."

Here is the step-by-step to recreate her classic look.

• Larry started off by brushing Regina’s scalp with the Tangle Teezer Scalp Exfoliator & Massager. He says it feels AMAZING!!!

• He then applied a small amount of Flawless By Gabrielle Union Detangling Leave In Conditioner, Shine Enhancing Heat Protectant Spray, & Blow Dry Cream to her damp hair.

• Larry detangled Regina’s hair by using the Tangle Teezer Ultimate Detangler Hair Brush.

• From there, he blew Regina’s hair out to a smooth finish with establishing a middle part.

• After blow drying, he flat ironed Regina’s hair to a smooth but textured finish.

• Once flat ironed, he precision cut her hair into a Blunt Bob to compliment the exaggerated shoulders on her Louis Vuitton Gown.

• Larry finished off Regina’s look by passing through her freshly chopped Bob once with a flat iron.

• Lastly, Larry finished Regina’s hair line with Flawless By Gabrielle Union Edge Control and tucked

Against my better judgement I attempted to watch THEM on Amazon Prime yesterday. Per IMDB -- A Black family moves to an all-white Los Angeles neighborhood where malevolent forces, next door and otherworldly, threaten to taunt, ravage and destroy them. For me I didn't even notice any "malevolent forces" I instantly felt triggered, to the point that I stopped on episode seven and I'm unsure how I made it that far. But, here we are. I don't want to give any spoilers but this show is simply out of touch we suffer with racism everyday so who wants to sit through TEN episodes of it. The ONLY reason I wanted to watch THEM is because I love horror and thriller films/shows but the only thing this series did was evoke anger and pure frustration. Where is the beautiful story telling that I witnessed in Lovecraft County, GET OUT or even US???? By Episode two I wanted to throw my phone at the TV and EPISODE FIVE is despicable. The ONLY moment I enjoyed was when Lucky slapped her Karen neighbor for calling her a NIGGER in front of her daughter. whew chile !! That's a slight spolier but you will still feel the same gratification as I did in that moment. This is a short review but I had to share my thoughts -- cause we deserve better. I'm tired of seeing the struggle. MORE BLACK JOY AND EXCELLENCE PLEASE!!
