Frida's, Football Season and More

I noticed today that a Mexican restaurant named Frida's opening the space formerly occupied Zinnie's on Madison Avenue in Midtown. It's good to see something new opening there. The addition of Frida's to the corner of Madison and Belvedere could make for an interesting in evening...Mexican food followed by after dinner beverages at the Lamplighter and/or Old Zinnie's.

Football season is right around the corner. SEC Media Days were held this week and the NFL is close to wrapping up its work stoppage. Practice should be starting at all football levels in the next week or so. Look for Memphis-area college football info (schedules, etc) soon.


In another random note, it appears that MTV is bringing Beavis and Butthead back to the air with new episodes this October. Here is a quick preview of one of the new episodes. Apparently not much has changed.

Long Time

Its been a long time since there has been a new post on Memphis Lagniappe. Reason? Its summer time, travel, etc. The Grizzlies lost in the NBA playoffs, a successful BBQ Fest was held at Tiger Lane, Memorial Day and the 4th of July have passed and I'm refreshed and ready to go.

So, what's new? Its hot. Not just a little warm, but it is miserably hot outside. I hope you and your friends are staying cold inside or maybe playing in a pool. Remember the sun block kids.

Moral of the story, more frequent posts coming soon.
