Mrs. Winner's has gone out of business completely! Every branch in Atlanta has closed down, too. Nuuuuuu.

Thanks, Shereen! I like exploring abandoned buildings too, as long as I can see what I might be stepping on or what might be coming for me!

This is a great post. I always hate to see things close down, but I'm fascinated with the empty buildings. We have warehouses and office buildings close to our house and I'm dying to go inside.

Katie - I didn't discover Mrs Winner's until 3 or 4 years ago, and then I was ashamed I had missed out on such goodness for so long, and now always will.

Victoria - I know! It's creepy to see so many deserted storefronts. Land is STILL being cleared for new strip malls, for some reason. Gross.

Ah, Mrs Winner's... childhood memories. We used to get so excited about their cinnamon rolls.
