Day 23--REI

One of my favorite stores down here is REI. It has tons of outdoor gear for camping, biking, hiking and more. I don't ever buy much at this store but I like browsing the racks and wish that I had a camping or backpacking trip planned. I would absolutely love to get into either of those activities and wished my hubby enjoyed the great outdoors as much as I do. His idea of a fun on a Saturday is planting it on the couch and watching football, mine is camping in the woods with my hubby and dog.

Day 22--The Chick

One of the fast food joints that I was obsessed with when we first moved down here was Chick-fil-A. I was in love with their classic chicken sandwich with pickles and I'd dress it up with ketchup and mayo...yum!

I admit, I may have had too much of the Chick and now it turns my stomach just thinking about that place and honestly, I can't remember the last time I ate there. Too much of a good thing I guess. I have to be in the right mood for greasy waffle fries and chicken sandwich.

Day 21--The Streets At Southpoint

The Streets at Southpoint is the name of the shopping mall by our house. Its anchor stores are Nordstrom, Macys, and Belk and houses many other typical mall stores like GAP, J.Crew, Banana, Gymboree, JC Penny, Sears, White House/Black Market, Pottery Barn and PB Kids, Victoria's Secret, Ann Taylor and Loft, Urban Outfitters, and many more. Southpoint has an outdoor wing that houses many dining opportunities and is a great place to take up a seat and people watch. Often, on the weekend nights, there are street performers and live music.

Day 20--Pizza Pizza


Oh boy, oh boy! We got finally got one! Yes, we are totally excited for the Little Caesars Pizza that opened up near our home. We use to get Little Caesars once a week when we lived in Ann Arbor since it was across the street from the office that I worked at. I love their crazy bread and the pizza is alright , most of the time. I miss seeing the lucky employee holding the big bright orange sign dancing on the corner though.

Day 19--Pei Wei

Pei Wei Asian Diner is located in Briar Creek in Raleigh and serves basically the same menu as PF Changs but on the cheap. The best part, you don't have to wait 2 hours to be seated. Pei Wei is an order before you sit diner so you don't wait long for your food either. Oh, and they let you take as many fortune cookies as you like too...what's not to like about this place?
