Holla!
Hello Everybody!
Happy, happy me. It's Friday! Yeah! :)
Anyhoo, just letting you know that I'm really happy for a number of reasons:
1) There's a lot of you, friends, out there reaching out to the blog and writing me up to say "hey", requesting coupons and posting your comments. Awesome! That's the whole point of this, to keep the communication going. Good job everyone! Keep 'em coming.
2) Many passports for "Around Frontera In 80 Days" are coming... wow, the competition's heating up. Have you completed yours yet? I have... and filling up my second one. There's more than one happy Frontera-goer who's completed more than one... wow!
So, all is great at the Frontera camp. I'll post a new comment in a few hours to update everyone on how our generosity's showing with the Muscular Dystrophy Association and the Jerry's Kids program at all the locations, as well as with the next big thing coming in March. You cannot miss this!
So, see you here soon. Post away your thoughts and comments with the link below. Talk it up!
- Dude, Out
PS: I really do love hearing from everyone. Write me/post here/whatever's easiest for you. :)

It's Your Right. (& Duty, Too!)
Hello everybody!
Wow, happy beginning of week. Have we got a surprise for you.
Every so often, I get a chance to peek into Frontera's fan mail.
(Yes, people still write!) In this case, here's two letters from our
friends at Autrey Mill Middle School in Alpharetta, who are rather
enthusiastic about sharing their love for Frontera and what they
think could be great improvements for the restaurant. (I'm making
sure that the information gets passed along.)
Just as is the case with these letters, all e-mail correspondence
is also relayed onto our friends at Frontera, so write, write away!
Just put a big ol- smile on my face!
I'm bowled over there's big fans (such as I) out there... cool.
Keep on writin'.

Chatterbox.
Hey everyone!
There we go. Hope you're all doing well these days.
It had to happen and now it's going to work. So, yeah, the blog has been working since the summer of '05, but it was always harder for me to keep things flowing easily with so much information and stuff coming and going with Frontera.
So now, I've made a few improvements to make the blog easier to use than ever before!
What's the biggest one? You can now post comments online with a single click.
The only catch is that we want to keep this family-friendly forum, well, G-rated. So yes, anyone can comment and share their points of view, ideas, suggestions, comments, and such with the rest of the community at this blog, but I will receive all comments first and reserve the right to post only the ones that really adhere to online etiquette. That doesn't mean that only the positive comments get through, it all adds up (and yes, even constructive criticism is highly valued). But discresion (and common sense) will be applied to make the blog run favourably, so be nice and keep your comments as smart (or silly, if that's the case) as possible.
Please, please, comment away. It's all good and it's so easy to share posts, too. If you find one you like and want to share it with a friend, all you have to do is click on the little envelope icon and automatically forward that to whatever e-mail address your heart desires.
Anyhoo, it's all good and it's only good because you keep visiting and making it work well. Counting on you, dear online friends, to keep the magic alive.
Feel free to comment on this or any other previous posts. Who knows? There are a million and one things we've never discussed online, so propose a theme or topic, a poll or something you'd like to see here that I could arrange with our friends at Frontera.
Anything goes... it's all up to you now.

Cupid's Arrow's At Your Heart.
Hello World!
So, yeah, the 14th is coming up soon. Next week, in fact.
We're but a few days away and the deal is, what to do?
I've a great suggestion for keeping it 'real' on Valentine's Day. Keep it simple, sparkly and fun with Frontera's own margaritas. They come in a variety of flavors and you cannot miss out on them.
By the way, they've $1.99 Margarita Nights Thursdays at Marietta and Saturday Nights at the Buckhead location - not to be missed.
But back on track for the 14th.
Anyone got extra special plans? Post a comment right here to share what you intend on doing this upcoming Valentine's Day... who knows? We may be getting a million and one great ideas to spruce up this fine day.
Comment, comment away. Just click the box below to post your thoughts. Be readin' ya soon!

Save A Lot? Enjoy A Lot... More.
Hey there y'all!
So, check this out. We all love Frontera's coupons delivered to your mailboxes, right? Sure we do.
The thing is, from this month on, I'm going to get my hands on the latest delivery of these coupons so that this blog serves as an updater for all of us wondering if we've got the latest version of these great money-savers in our hands.
With no further due, I give you... February's coupons. The orange chili heart shape, alongside the red background is tempting enough to make you want to truly fall for "Love At First Bite".
Check your mailbox to see if they've not escaped your grasp. Most of us have already received them. However, if you haven't don't forget to write me here, so that I may pass along your coupon request to my buddies at Frontera and get those out to you, pronto!
Anyway, off to eat and save - a lot! See you at Frontera.

Jerry's Kids At Frontera: 2/17/06-3/17/06
Hello world!
Here's something really great that's about to start off at Frontera.
Last year, the restaurants teamed up with the Jerry Lewis Telethon and the legendary actor's association, Jerry's Kids, who alongside the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) held a drive at all 12 Frontera locations from February to March.
This year, they've decided to unite for this great cause. It's really easy to help, too. Green and golden 'shamrocks' will be sold from February 17-March 17, 2006 at the cashiers. Let's not forget to pick a few up as we approach to pay our bill. The contributions aren't huge either, the donations are $1 or $5, and trust me, they can do a world of good to so many kids and families that have been impacted by muscular dystrophy. Research, medicine and a brighter future can all happen thanks to everyone's help.
It's all a matter of chipping in a little for this incredible cause.
If you'd like to read a little more on the shamrocks program, please click here.
Anyway, it's something that's worth thinking and knowing about.
Let's unite for the MDA and show them what a great crowd we are at Frontera.
We can do it again!
- Dude, Out.
They're heeeeeee-eeeeeeere!
Hello everybody,
Yup. Lots goin' on at Frontera and so, here come the long-awaited updates.
First off, I'd like to thank everyone who's written in with ideas, comments and suggestions to help make the blog a little more user-friendly and a lot more fun. You'll note that the right side now has direct links to more information for the current contests and promotions at Frontera, under the "News & Links" heading.
Anyway... waddayaknow? Turns out that the first "Around Frontera In 80 Days" passports have started to make their way back to Frontera HQ. I've confirmed reports that the first ones have started to come in from some customers, like you and me, but specifically from the southern part of Atlanta. What's up, people?
Wow... I'm impressed that some people have already conquered the contest and gone to all 12 Frontera locations in such few weeks. Don't worry... there's PLENTY of time left to hit all the restaurants. (Deadline: April 8, 2006) But don't be too late, never too early to kickstart.
Let's get crackin'! I'm not yet done with all 12 and I love 'em. There's great prizes up for grabs and it sure beats sittin' at home all day long or goin' to eat some nasty fast food, right? Do the Mex-Mex taste.
Speedin' out to Frontera for an early dinner in a few.
