Won't somebody please help the children

Soooooo, this is where I ask for help dear friends. Not for the children, but for myself (yes, I know that this is backwards, but that's kind of fitting considering the mememememememe source, right?)

Heading to Atlanta for the Labor Day weekend. This is a busy travel time aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand it's Atlanta. Thinking there's going to be some traffic issues. Any driving suggestions (other than straight into a brick wall) would be appreciated.

Another, totally unrelated, bit of help - what is your favorite winter fruit/veg dish? Looking for something beyond spinach salad and apple slices.
Really enjoying the produce we have right now so much - it would be great to feel this good all year long! Last year I tried freezing a bunch of blueberries - fine, but not the same when defrosted months later (surprise, surprise).

In any case, get a bit sick of all the heavy potato/bean/squash casseroles that come later on. So, trying to think up some meals in advance that will not just sit like lead in the gut. 

Okay, thanks in advance. I need all the help I can get. Especially when Sally Struthers sues my sorry arse.
