When people think Buffalo, they think wings. Other places might try, but they just cannot compete with Buffalo's wings. They taste so good! But they always make me feel terrible. It never fails. I always feel awful after I eat them. So why do I keep it up?

There are certain things that you shouldn't do when you're drinking. Obviously driving is on that list. I think calling ex-girlfriends should be out. Texting should be out all together. Social networking, too, can be a bad idea when you're drinking.  Which is why the Budweiser Buddy Cup could be a very bad idea.

The holidays are over and the snow has already begun to melt (although I know there will be more to come).  Yet I still have not taken down my Christmas decorations.  I know it seems late but this year it's because we are waiting for some family members to see them still.  But how late is too late?

It’s wintertime.  People get colds.  I have had one since Thursday.  I thought I was doing people a favor over the weekend by refusing to shake hands for fear of getting them sick too.  But you should have seen the looks I got!

I'm a Bills fan.  I have been for all of my life.  Needless to say, I understand frustration.  However, I also understand sportsmanship.  In my opinion there are things that fans should and should not do when they go to a game.  Cheering when a player gets injured is one of those things that a fan should never do

I go through this every year.  Fall is very obviously here yet I hesitate to take the air conditioning out of the windows just in case we get another warm day.  So when is the perfect time to take the air out?

I have noticed lately that there are some things people do that are really driving me crazy.  It's just a pet peeve.  People are allowed to do it, but every time I see it I want to pull every piece of hair out of my head.

A couple days ago I put together a list of my 5 favorite things to find in my lunchbox as a kid.  There were also a couple things that I was always hoping were not in there when I flipped the lid open.  One of those things was a sandwich that my dad used to make.  We didn't think that much of it when we were growing up, but looking back at it now, it could have been one of the strangest sandwich c

Some folks think it's OK to breast feed in public. Whatever happened to having proper manners? I think that at times, people seem to have lost their manners. My friend JoAnn weighs in the topic of manners and gives us her thoughts on a few different topics including breast feeding in public...

When I was a kid, we went to school for two reasons.  The first reason was just that it was what you did.  Kids went to school because that’s what kids did.  The other reason was if Dad found out we weren’t there, we’d be in BIG trouble.  But now, kids are being enticed with gifts for their attendance.

When I was a kid, I was scared to death of the dentist.  If it wasn't the dentist, it was the orthodontist. I just hated going. I'm not sure if it was the tightening of my braces, the extractions, the fillings or just the sound of the drill that I hated the most...but I hated it!

We've all had that moment. The one where it's time to say goodbye and you have to decide what the appropriate gesture is. Do you wave, give a firm handshake, or go for the awkward hug? I prefer the wave.  With this being National Hug Week , I thought I'd explore what makes hugs so awkward.
