  • A Night of Laughter at the City Winery: Unforgettable Moments with Wild ‘N Out Stars

    Jan 9th, my homegirl and I embarked on a quest for laughter, and our destination was the City Winery in Atlanta. Little did we know that this evening would be filled with uproarious moments, courtesy of the comedic talents of Darren Brand, Tyler Chronicles, and J McNutt – all familiar faces from the hit show Wild ‘N Out.

    The City Winery, known for its unique blend of fine wines and live entertainment, set the stage for a night that promised both sophistication and belly-aching laughter. As we settled into our seats, anticipation hung in the air, and we knew we were in for a treat.

    J McNutt took the stage first, He brought a different flavor to the comedy lineup. His delivery was smooth, and his jokes were laced with a unique perspective on life. McNutt’s performance was the perfect cherry on top of an already fantastic comedic sundae.

    Darren Brand, with his infectious energy and quick-witted humor, took the stage 2nd. His comedic prowess, honed on the Wild ‘N Out battlefield, had the entire audience in stitches. From hilarious anecdotes about his own life to playful banter with the crowd, Brand’s performance was a rollercoaster of laughter that left us gasping for breath.

    Tyler Chronicles, another Wild ‘N Out alum, followed suit and took the comedy baton. His unique style, a blend of observational humor and spot-on impersonations, resonated with the diverse audience. What stood out, however, was not just his on-stage antics but also the insightful interview he recently gave for my magazine, “Where It Begins.”

    In the interview, Chronicles delved into his journey, sharing anecdotes from his rise in the comedy world. Hearing his experiences first hand added an extra layer of appreciation to his on-stage performance. It was like getting a backstage pass to the mind of a comedic genius.

    The laughter echoed through the walls of the City Winery, creating an atmosphere of joy and camaraderie. It wasn’t just a show; it was a shared experience, a collective release of stress and tension through the healing power of laughter.

    As the curtain closed on the night’s performances, my homegirl and I couldn’t help but reminisce about the hilarious moments that unfolded before us. It was more than just a great night out; it was a reminder of the importance of laughter in our lives.

    But the night didn’t end there. Tyler Chronicles & Darren Brand, being the gracious and approachable artist that they are, took a moment to connect with fans. Their humility and genuine appreciation for their supporters shone through as they graciously posed for photos..

    In the end, our quest for laughter at the City Winery turned into a memory we’ll cherish forever. Darren Brand, Tyler Chronicles, and J McNutt not only delivered a fantastic show but also reminded us of the power of laughter to bring people together. Here’s to more nights filled with joy, camaraderie, and, of course, laughter – the best medicine for the soul.

  • A Night out in Atlanta GA

    A Night Out

    Atlanta, Ga

    By: Cece Hymes

    Went out and hung out with some friends for a birthday gathering in Atlanta. First time going on a party bus. We went on the Go Go Party bus. It was nice. The driver was really nice and on time. The Party bus had lights in it, music, and a pole if you want to dance. It holds about 25 people. I really enjoyed this.

    The first step was to The Clutch Restaurant. It was a really nice restaurant in Atlanta Ga. The food was Great I ended up having the Shrimp and Grits which was good. We tried the wings which were good and the brussels sprouts. They have Live music playing after a certain time. It is classy and nice. The customer service was good.

    The last place we ended up going was the Parlor Lounge which was cool. They played House music. The people were cool and it’s a nice laid-back place. It’s like a chill spot to go to and dance. The smell when you came in wasn’t too good but once in the back and down to the dance floor you couldn’t smell it.

    It was a nice day to get out and enjoy the Atlanta area and to try and do some new things and try new places. If you tried these places let me know what you liked about them. Make sure to follow me at @Cece.atl and @Cece.atlbucketlist

    Where: Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I haven’t been to this place in some years. It was one of my friends’ birthdays so we wanted to go see some entertainment. This is a new place where the Drag Queens entertain with their clothes on lol. More like karaoke.  They offer delicious food, fierce cocktails and great performances. They serve brunches and dinners.

    The couple of times I have been it was someone’s birthday. They have a special shout out for the birthday and bachelorette people. It is a little pricey but the food and entertainment is good. I ended up this time getting the shrimp and grits. Which was good.

    I had a great time as always. So, if you are looking to do something fun in the Atlanta area check out Lips. Get your homegirls and enjoy a great night. Much laughter. You will not be disappointed.

  • Super bowl in Atlanta in 2019

    Super Bowl in Atlanta in 2019

     

    Had to go back to the Super Bowl In Atlanta. I got a chance to do media the whole weekend with a lot of different celebrities coming out. Just enjoying Atlanta meeting all kinds of people doing interviews. It was Super Bowl LIII, the 53rd Super Bowl. The game was with the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams in Atlanta.

    We partied the whole weekend. We were at the Super Atrium in downtown Atlanta. Big Tigger was the co-host on one of the nights. Some of the celebrities that were in the building at the weekend were Mike Vick, Lil Duval, T.I., Cedric the entertainer and more. It was nice and the event went smoothly.

    Let me give you a little laughter, I was in V.I.P. We were walking with the celebrities. We had to go down some stairs. I was walking with Toya, Rasheeda, and Kirk. I turned around to speak and missed a step and fell. I got up so fast and moved quickly. I was going to make sure no one got me on camera. That was an embarrassing moment. I shook it off and stayed out of sight for a minute.

    This Super Bowl was one for the books. I really enjoyed having to get out and meet people and do media for the area. I know the promoters made some good money that weekend. It was packed, it was nice. All I can say is that this was a weekend I will never forget.

    One thing I love about Atlanta is that this is the city where we have a lot going on and a lot of entrepreneurs. It’s always something to do in Atlanta. You can find a hustle and you can grow.

  • Blue Ridge Mountains

    Travel to Blue Ridge Mountains

    By: Cece Hymes

    Had a chance to go to the Blue Ridge Mountains with some friends. It was a different experience. It was a big cabin. It had a pool table, a jacuzzi, games, a lot of rooms and out in the woods. We went hiking but most of the time we relaxed in the cabin. We played games, cards, and grilled. Nice weekend getaway. First time in the cabins and would definitely go back. If you are looking for something to do in a peaceful place out in the mountains then check out Blue Ridge.

    Sometimes just sitting outside relaxing with friends and talking is much needed. You have to have peace of mind sometimes. Getaway and just enjoy the scenery. If you have never been to the mountains try it out and they have all kinds of cabins, some have pools, some have up to 12 or more rooms. They have it where there’s enough room for a group of family and friends.

    Have you ever been to the cabins? What’s your experience? Which cabin have you been to?

    Panama City Beach, FL

    By: Cece Hymes

    I had a chance to go to the beach with some friends and have some fun. It was my birthday as usual I got to be somewhere with some water. We had a great time. We ate a lot of Crab legs. We went to an all you can eat buffet with crab legs, seafood and more.

    We also went to ClubLaVela, which was really nice. While we were there Bone Crusher came to perform all the way from Atlanta GA. The place had so many different levels and parts you could go to. Nice big TV outside with a pond and just real classy and nice.

    The Beach was nice and beautiful. Great place to go out with your friends and enjoy just experiencing the different beaches in FL is nice and they have clear water beaches. Once you experienced nice water you would go back for me. September was a great month to go.

    Thankful for great friends and great vibes. Also came back here for a family trip and we did wonderworks and different activities. We enjoyed the indoor pools and hot tubs. Panama City Beach is not too far from Atlanta. It’s a nice place to getaway for the weekend if you want to relax, enjoy the beach and it has a lot of entertainment for family and friends.

  • The Southern Pedaler

    The Southern Pedaler in Atlanta GA

    By: Cece Hymes

    I had a chance to experience the Southern Pedaler in Atlanta GA with some friends. The Southern Pedaler is a party bike where you pedal, and it seats maybe 15 people. It takes you through downtown Atlanta and it stops at a couple bars and eating places. We get a certain amount of time to get out and enjoy and be back to the bike. It has music on there. It was cool and different.

    Just think of being on a bike with a lot of people laughing, listening to music, and enjoying a nice day downtown in Atlanta watching the scenery. We stopped at Harry Bakes, we experienced the wine bar, the taste bar, and we went to other places also we stopped maybe 3 to 4 places downtown. It’s very fun for a group of friends. You can also go at night. They have LED lights on it.

    It was fun and different. I would definitely do it again but in another city so I can see how their city and town is. To experience their downtown. Atlanta has so much to do in this city you can never get bored. You just have to get out and find out where things are and what’s going on. Stay hip to the town. Also, they have a couple of these different bike rides in Atlanta. This one that we tried was really good and the host was very nice and good also. A lot of laughter and fun.

    Have you ever experienced a bike ride like the pedalar? If so, how was your experience?

  • Hilton Orlando Resort in Orlando FL

    Hilton Orlando Resort in Orlando FL

    By: Cece Hymes

    My family and I took a vacation for my birthday to the Hilton Orlando Resort in Orlando Fl. It was a nice resort. It had different eating places inside, a spa, fitness and outside pool. We went just in time before the storm so the weather was nice and sunny. The best part was that they had an adult section with the hot tubs and pool, they had a pool with a kids slide, two other hot tubs and a lazy river. I love the water. It wasn’t crowded, it was just right. So relaxing it was so much needed. We stayed in the pool. The stay was great and we enjoyed it. They had everything you needed right there at the resort. They had basketball courts and tennis courts. It was filled with things to do.

    So, if you are looking for a place to stay while in Orlando Fl this is the spot. It’s not far from Icon park, Sea world and a lot of other nice places to go.

    Glad to have gone to Orlando FL with the family for vacation. It was a great stay. Make sure to check them out.
