Check out Namaste Indian Street Food, a family-owned restaurant in Evans built from Chef Manoj Parameswaran’s 20+ years in the kitchen and inspired by his Indian heritage.

From favorite classics like Thali, Somasas and Butter Chicken to specialty dishes such as their Kottayam Sloppy Joes, there are so many amazing flavorful options to try! 😋

And if you’re looking for something sweet, we highly recommend the Gulab Jamun or beating the summer heat with a Mango Lassi.

Are you feeling the "Sunday Scaries?" 🤔

Building a consistent Sunday routine can be a game-changer for your week ahead. It helps reduce stress, boost productivity, and enhance self-care.

But here's the thing: you don't need to overhaul your entire routine in one day. Start small and commit to making progress, not perfection.

Pick even just one of these things to help you reset today:
✨ Brain Dump: Write down everything on your mind to clear your head.
✨ Catch Up: Respond to pending messages or calls.
✨ Weekly Review: Reflect on last week's accomplishments + congratulate yourself!
✨ Self-Care: Take a brisk walk, spend 10 minutes stretching, or enjoy a hot bath.
✨ De-clutter + Clean: Knock out dishes, put away all laundry (bonus: fresh sheets on your bed!), or tidy up on area that's been bugging you.

Remember:
👉 Balance Structure and Relaxation: Leave room for spontaneity! Forcing rigid routines can burn you out too. Give yourself room to just be.
👉 Customize Your Routine: Tailor it to what works best for you.

By taking small steps today, you'll set yourself up for success this week. Share your favorite Sunday reset activities with us using !

Happy Sunday, Augusta! 🌞
