Easter Brunch at 131 Main

OK, so this wasn't all that cheap and it certainly wasn't free, but I want to give them a shout out because they didn't jack up their prices simply because it was Easter. Plus, 131 Main is a nice restaurant with pretty nice prices, in my opinion, if you are looking to have a slightly fancier meal (Buddy and I love going on dates there).
Do you know that they were charging $50 per person at the Ballentyne Resort for Easter brunch? That's just preposterous to me! Three of us had brunch for less than that at 131 Main. Now, they weren't doing a massive buffet, we just got our meals, but do you really need all that food anyway. I know that I certainly don't. My fantastic Brioche French Toast was plenty enough for me, and it was one of the most delicious things that I have ever tasted!

Dogswalk Against Cancer

How about a super fun time for you and your pet that also raises money for a very worthy cause. Well, that's what the Dogswalk Against Cancer is! It's $20 to register and you do get a cool shirt for that money, plus it's a donation to the American Cancer Society to fund research to find a cure for human and animal cancers. I have lost some close family members to cancer and am also a huge animal lover, so I participate in this every year. The walk starts at Metro Paws, where there were free Chik-fil-a breakfast biscuits, Starbucks coffee, and Monster Energy Drink. We then walked to Canine Cafe for free (dog) treats and mingle time and then we walked back to Metro Paws for playtime. Like any good walk, we picked up tons of swag. Free tennis balls pet food cups, pet food samples, key chains, magnets, pens, tons of great giveaways. This is one of my favorite events all year, can't wait until Dogwalk 2010!
