Information for Good Day Atlanta viewers: May 9, 2024

Featured guests and segments for Good Day Atlanta on May 9:

Ike Reighard’s Must Ministry Summer Lunch Program: MUST Ministries will continue the centuries-old tradition of partnering with churches, schools, businesses and volunteers to feed thousands of children in metro Atlanta all summer long. MUST’s goal is to provide breakfast and lunch to at least 7,500 children for 9 weeks. An estimated half-million meals will be distributed across eight counties (Bartow, Cobb, Cherokee, Douglas, Fulton, Paulding, Pickens and Gwinnett). In addition to food, MUST will also offer activity kits for the mind, body and soul.

Flowers for Mother’s Day: Buford Floral Studio is “blooming” in a new space ahead of Mother’s Day. It’s only been a year since we spent a morning with the talented team at Buford’s Design House of Flowers – but you could say business has been truly “booming” ever since. With Mother’s Day coming up this weekend (you can’t say you weren’t reminded!), we decided to make another trip to the floral studio – and discovered that the owner , Pam Holley, had moved to a bigger space! Now located in a 7,500-square-foot building at 1605 Buford Highway, Unit D—Holley says she and her team of floral artists are busier than ever. Scroll through the boutique’s social media posts and you’ll see that they’ve been diving into prom orders – prom bouquets seem to be very popular these days – and that attention is now focused on fulfilling orders for Mother’s Day.

DIY wedding hairstyle with Kristy Reis: Summer wedding season is quickly approaching, which means we’ll need styles that are cute but also durable. Kristy shows viewers soft waves in updos, half-and-half, and a flowing pony with a bow. She will also introduce you to the “hair accessories” trend using pearls, flowers and tiaras.

Elmo, Rosita and Rocio Galarza from Sesame Workshop will discuss new resources on emotional well-being: Sesame Workshop, the global educational non-profit organization behind Sesame Street, has an organization-wide focus on the emotional well-being of young children and their families. Earlier this year, millions of people responded to Elmo’s tweet asking “how is everyone?” » This incredible response shows the severity of the mental health crisis our country is experiencing today. The new emotional wellbeing resources (launched in May) will feature most of the Sesame Street cast and will include 6 Muppet videos; 3 animated videos (5 more to launch on June 17); 4 printables with resources for parents and children; an interactive digital storybook; an article explaining how parents and guardians can advocate for a child’s emotional well-being; a list of mental health activities to help care for children; a PSA with the Ad Council for their “Love, Your Mind” campaign.

Chadwick Boyd presents a puffy asparagus and gruyere omelet: Just in time for Mother’s Day, this “puffy” omelet is a showy centerpiece without too much fuss. The trick is to separate and whisk the egg whites and yolks, then fold them together and bake them in a cast iron skillet. This omelette is filled with thin ribbons of sautéed asparagus and topped with hazelnut Gruyere for a lovely spring touch, although you can fill it with whatever you prefer. There is always a wow factor when I place it on the table in front of my family and friends. I first learned this recipe from the “Betty Crocker Cookbook” when I was a child. I have adapted it over the years.
