I am a nature lover and self-proclaimed foodie wrapped in one package. In my previous life, I was an Accountant, but numbers were boring and writing is the only thing that fuels my soul. So, I write because it's my freedom...it brings me joy. When I'm not writing dope articles for OnlyInYourState, I am writing and editing articles for my online blog on Medium.com. Or, when I get the chance, I am off on a trip with my family chasing waterfalls, or simply exploring the great outdoors. My mantra is to always find the best part of every day and bask in it.
If you look up the definition of off the beaten path, you might find a picture of Advada’s Diner. This hidden gem is in a renovated quail barn, tucked inside the farming community of Carlisle. And it’s so old fashioned that you will need to bring cash, a check book, or you can opt to use the ATM inside. Also, the food is so delicious that this eatery doesn’t need a website or official Facebook page. Word of mouth, loyal patrons, as well as the mouthwatering food, are enough marketing for this small-town restaurant.
