Fleurenasci — Jewelry from flowers

Snowjam 2014, a day that won't soon be forgotten. For me, it started off like any typical Tuesday. I was getting ready to head out to the monthly meeting of the West Cobb Business Association. As I peered out my window, I noticed a light snow had begun to fall. I rethought my day and made the decision to stay in and skip this month's meeting. Wow, did I make the right choice because what followed in Atlanta, and especially Cobb County, was truly a nightmare. In a matter of hours the streets surrounding me were white and soon filled...

This past week has been one we won't soon forget. What started out as a normal April day, ended up as anything but normal. While there are still many unknown answers to the tragedy at the Boston Marathon, our hearts go out to the victims and their families.

I am confident those who were affected by this senseless tragedy will no doubt have a different outlook on the...
