Revive the Lost Art of the Thank You Note
Paper Daisies Custom Stationary
5494 Peachtree Road | Chamblee
Turn on some music and make like Jimmy Fallon; results from a brain-scan study suggest that even months after writing a thank you note, people’s brains are still wired to feel extra thankful. The implication is that the more you practice gratitude, the more attuned you are to it and the more you can enjoy its psychological benefits, including a feeling of wellbeing and reduced depression. Performing this simple activity of gratitude will let you savor the festive spirit a little longer.
Movie Pass
All major movies and theaters
Why go to the actual movie theater anymore when there’s NetFlix, a sofa and yoga pants at your house? The answer: Movie Pass. For a mere $9.95 monthly subscription, you can watch as many movies as your cinephile hearts desire – well, up to one movie in theaters per day, every day, that is. You only need to watch two movies per month to feel like you’re getting your money’s worth and, as a bonus, you’ll actually know what you’re talking about this Oscar season. As our friend Eric (who is an extremely satisfied Movie Pass holder) says, “They’re losing money on this, and there’s no way it can last. Get while the getting’s good.”
Snow Mountain
Stone Mountain Park
Snow isn’t easy to come by in the Deep South – except at Stone Mountain Park! Snow Mountain is a true winter wonderland, full of real snow! Featuring Atlanta’s only 400-foot tubing hill and moving sidewalks to eliminate that pesky climb back to the top, Snow Mountain offers single tubes, double tubes and family-sized tubes that can accommodate up to eight guests at a time. Have older children, or a group of adults? Check out Galactic Snow Tubing: an immersive nighttime experience starting with great music, laser beams and 22 high-powered LED lights dancing all around to the beat of the music.
Medieval Times
Sugarloaf Mills
Hear us out: yes, Medieval Times can be a slightly cheesy dinner theater. But make no mistake, bold (and kinda cute) knights on beautiful Andalusian horses display incredible athleticism and thrilling swordfights. And eating with your hands is fun. Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament offers a two-hour live show complete with a bountiful four-course feast. Cheer for the knight of your section competing in games of skill, sword, falconry and an authentic jousting tournament to determine the champion.
