July 17 ~ National Peach Ice Cream Day
It’s July 17th, and that means it’s hot in South Carolina.
But we are in luck, because it is National Peach Ice Cream Day and there is no better place to get a scoop of frozen creamy … peachy sweetness than the Palmetto State.
While Georgia may be the first state to come to mind when we think of peaches, 20 states produce peaches commercially.
July 13 ~ National French Fry Day
Today is July 13th and if you love the Potato this days just for you, because today is National French Fries Day and we would like to offer an homage to a quintessentially American dish.

Bites – It’s All in the Name: Kid Cashew Restaurant ~ Charlotte, NC
If the name Kid Cashew confuses you, don’t fret. I asked one of the staff about where this unique moniker came from and found out that this Greek / Mediterranean restaurant’s name has a story.
Names aside, this is a fanatic restaurant with some of the most friendly staff you’ll find anywhere in Charlotte.
Kid Cashew Restaurant: 1608 East Blvd, Charlotte, NC 28203
