Happy Blog Anniversary To Me! It was only two years that I started this blog, Gnatty Savannah. In the two years that I have been in Savannah, I have worked for two small businesses here, and I now serve on two boards. I figure I would take a moment to recognize the new businesses that I […]
After two years blogging in Savannah, I have figured out what I want to focus on this blog. It is small business and entrepreneurs. This fits with my experience since I have been accounting and social media consulting for small businesses for about a decade. I have worked with illustration agency, an attorney, several tech […]
“Some of my best friends are gay” is something I wouldn’t say, but it is actually true. I have many gay friends and I have learned a lot about the LGBTQ community from them. I even did a presentation on how to be an ally on social media three years ago. Being out in the […]
I have been in Savannah for two years, and I have disappointed in the lack of breakfast places and bakeries downtown. Now that has changed with the opening of Rise Biscuits and Donuts. Rise started in Durham, North Carolina and now it is about six cities in the Southeast. The Savannah location is the first […]

In case you don’t know, potlikker or pot liquor is the liquid left behind after cooking greens. Anyway, I […]
My weekend was sweet. Friday, I met Jovan and Matthew from The Farmer and The Larder. They were in Savannah doing a pop-up dinner at White Whale Craft Ales. I know Jovan and Matthew through my friend Nicole, so it was great to see in person and not just via Facebook and Instagram. They gave […]
Since it’s hard to come up with a long blog post, I am making it easier on myself by finding three things I like in Savannah. Three things that I like this week in Savannah: The Hidden Hand Society (2301Bull Street) is a great place to find a quick gift for a graduate. I highly recommend eating […]
