    Buffalo Joes

    Last night I was wanting Buffalo Chicken something…I had a couple pounds of chicken in the fridge, so I decided to use all of that for some Buffalo Chicken.

    Dr. Pepper Museum:Waco, TX

    On one of our Texas adventures, we were headed from Fort Worth down to Houston, but took a few detours along the way. One of our stops was at the Dr. Pepper Museum in Waco, TX. The museum is housed in the 1906 bottling building, which was turned into the museum in 1989. Now if you’re comparing this to the World of Coke, Dr. Pepper’s got nothing on Coke!

Spray your waffle iron with non-stick spray on top and bottom and pour about half of the mixture in. Let it cook until it beeps. You’ll probably get about 2 waffles if you have a Belgium waffle maker like…

    Happy 2015! How can that be? With every new year, I try to look at it as fresh new beginning. Whether I make new years resolutions or not, I think it never hurts to reevaluate your life and to think about ways to improve it. Since I recently decided to rejuvenate my blog life and move to this new URL, I decided it would be a great year to start off with some New Year’s Resolutions. If you decide to write some, remember you should only have 3-7 goals. Having too many will overwhelm you and will make it hard…
