I was born and raised a Dallas Cowboys fan. I probably came home in a Dallas Cowboys onesie. I really never bothered to ask that question of my parents but my father was such a fanatic, it may have actually been the case. The same with my two older brothers, in our house growing up, if you were not a Cowboys fan, you may have been disowned or kicked out. Lucky for those 2, they never had to find o

What is that going to be to the south of Osaka in Midland off of Tradewinds Boulevard? I am in that area quite frequently and I kept wondering? One day I thought duh, who better to ask than someone at Osaka? So I called and still got no answers. Savage. You talk about a closely guarded secret! The person that I spoke to on the phone just kept saying 'I don't know, I don't know.'

Are you a straw person? I have to to have a straw with every drink. Water, tea, soda. Even my coffee at work, I use the stirrer as a straw. At restaurants they typically give you straws with whatever you order to drink but at home it is entirely up to you to have them or not.

Not all fries are created equal. It is up to you how you like your fries. Extra salty, steak, thin, crispy, crinkle, no salt, ketchup, no ketchup? I will go for crinkle any day but sometimes I like to change it up. Thank goodness for the many options we have here in the 432 to satisfy my french fry taste buds.

Even though it doesn't fully feel like winter here in West Texas, the truth is, it is. Today for example, I woke up to 30 degrees but it will be 70 by this afternoon. (And I wonder why I have the sniffles*cough*cough) Anyhoo, warm enough to throw on some shorts but way too cold to say, go for a swim! But I have the solution for you...

Wow, it is crazy that since the pandemic, we have gotten used to the fact that there are shortages on various grocery items. We went through the toilet paper shortage, Lysol, disinfectant wipe, canned good and more recently for me, a regular OG Fritos shortage. (I've seen them slowly make their way back on the shelves by the way).

Wow, talk about behind the times! I completely missed the memo that one of my favorite soda flavors of all time Big Red, is now a flavor of beer. I will always have my memories of a fried burrito, Doritos and a Big Red. If you have not tried this combination, don't walk, run to try it for yourself, you'll thank me later.

I heard a rumor recently that I must know if it is true. I was having a chat with some other mom friend's and one of them said she 'heard' that because of the new Omicron variant of COVID and resurgence in cases here locally, it may only be a matter of time before our kids homeschool once again. I got 2020 flashbacks and I do not like it one bit.

It's a new year and that means there are some great after-Christmas sales going on right now. But those will come to an end at some point and we will still be left looking for some good deals. I don't know about you but I'm always down for a sale...semi-annual sale over here, clearance or after-season deals there. Let me help ya out for 2022. Here are the best times of the year to buy these 5 item

So I recently spoke to a friend who was visiting from another state. Her family moved here last year and she was finally able to come visit their new home state. I filled her in on the places in MIdland/Odessa that she should not leave without checking out. Not to mention the cities in Texas that are a must while she's here. But aside from all of that she had one very important question she wanted
