The morning crew, in part, patrons of SugarBella's restaurant breakfast team, said goodbye to their top of Jamestown Hill location at the end of September as it was the last day for the restaurant to be open. They will scatter and look for a new location to meet and eat and get updates on the news of the day. From left are: Mike Watson, Dick Scholl, Billy Pickett, "Bella", Richard Phelps, Larry Legg, Joe Lynn Barbee, John Ballou, and Darrell Harris. A couple missed the photo, but were there is spirit, including Ronnie Holt. If anyone knows of another breakfast meeting location that serves homemade biscuits, gravy, bacon, sausage, eggs and hot coffee, please click ‘contact’ below and share the news - we’ll report. Meanwhile, new Columbia Magazine’s newest “What’s Cooking” sponsor, Highway 206 Foodmart, (formerly Patty’s Liberty Road location) opens at 5:30amCT and is cooking breakfast and lunch six days a week.

Meet Riyanuddin Syed! Riyanuddin comes from India, and found that the most difficult part of moving to the U.S. was leaving his family behind. In spite of this, Riyanuddin found that getting his Master of Science and Technology Management at Lindsey Wilson was worth the change.
"LWC provides student centric courses," Riyanuddin says, also noting that the degree offers "a wide range of subjects that I can gain knowledge in-depth" which will help boost his career.
A favorite tradition from his home is Eid-ul-Fitr (Ramadan Mubarak), at which Riyanuddin loves to interact with others and "eat a variety of cuisines." A fun fact about Riyanuddin is that he doesn't take pictures on his phone, opting to live in the moment and to "keep every memory in [his] heart." We're so glad to have Riyanuddin as a part of our Blue Raider family! Comments | Permalink Have you seen Butters?

Shannon writes, "Butters the cat decided to join us for church on Sunday and hitched a ride in the engine of my daughter's car. She made her getaway in the parking lot of 3Trees Church in the Pinewood Shopping Center. We've made multiple trips to look for her and have alerted the local businesses in the shopping center. If anyone happens upon Butters in Pinewood or the nearby residential areas, please call Bruce at Adair Co. Kwik Lube (270-380-1300) so we can wrangle her up and get her back home. She is slightly larger than in the photo." Comments | Permalink Older Photos
