Penelahpe's Boys, Sandwiches, and Building Communities with MODA

My sons and I took a trip to Midtown to eat and go to MODA.
I am all about being frugal with my family and with my business. So this is what we did:

We went to the market and got fresh baked bread, fancy cheese and  deli sliced  smoked turkey for the meat eaters and Cajun crab salad for the fish eater, fruit, dessert drinks, potato chips versus the alternative of going to an eatery.  Now both trips to a market or to an eatery may cost the same,  but you have way more left overs to make more sandwiches and snacks for the bus trip home and meals for the next day.

We made our own sandwiches ......so good.  This was mine with Cajun crab dip, Three Pepper Gouda and tomatoes, lettuce and boom!!!!  The turkey sandwiches had cheddar cheese, avocado, tomato, my children are gourmet.....

..... how are they gourmet ? I allow my  children to help with the food choices, try new things  and they are more than likely  to eat all their food. 

 I just give mine guidelines that begin with healthy food choices:  a fruit, a veggie, a protein,  a bread/ starch  and a well deserved dessert.  My oldest reads the labels and know when the ingredients get complicated the product may not be a healthy choice.  

On to the Museum:

MODA:  Museum of Design Atlanta.
Offers free children memberships until they are 18yrs.

 

Their current exhibits promote thinking about creating better communities and what that looks like to us.

Terry  Jr. constructed a wall describing what he would like to see in his community: produce, commute, reuse, access, bike, dwell, to name a few.

Aasim constructed his vision: advocate, affect, connect, grow, live, contribute.....

MODA also has a platform to express what one would want  immediately in their communities: foods, transportation, green space etc. This platform is connected to the redesigning of the Turner Field Space.  

All visitors have an opportunity to construct their vision and  this information will be turned over to Georgia/ Atlanta  legislators.  

A museum that gives you a voice and trust a good meal was needed to process all this awesome information.

Peace

Please go visit and have a picnic too!!!!
