There’s lot of talk over at Topix about Publix. No, we’re not trying to be cute by spitting a quick rhyme. Rumor has it, Publix Super Markets, Inc. has acquired Food City, KVAT Food Stores. Feel free to go incognito in our comment section if you’ve got the low-down.

Summer is in full swing, and it is time to get the kids out of the house for some fun in the sun. With the temperatures reaching into the 90’s last week, the only fun my kids were going to be able to withstand was the type of fun that included water. Unfortunately, the husband tells me that we can’t afford to dig up that back yard and put in a pool. So what’s a mom to do?

Activity from the Knoxify headquarters will be light this week. We have to take a vacation sometime, right?
But since you’re here, check out these oldies but goodies.

A second Earth Fare is opening in Knoxville today. In the Bearden area to be exact. According to their Twitter stream they will be offering free tastings when the doors open.

Hollywood, the Old West, the country of Bolivia, and most importantly Knoxville, TN. What ties them together here is a movie and a man and if you guessed Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, then you’ve guessed the movie.
But if Paul Newman or Robert Redford come to mind, then guess again.
The Knoxville Open, which is part of the Nationwide Tour, tees off its first round of action tomorrow. Venture out West to Fox Den Country Club if you want to take in some of the action.
