Find Your Favorite Flavor at Buffalo Wings & Rings

May 8, 2019 By Nedra McDaniel Leave a Comment

When I tell my family that I’m not cooking AND that we are going to a sports restaurant and bar, I earn MAJOR Mom points.

This time? I got BONUS Mom points! We enjoyed tasty menu favorites that are back for a limited time.

Plus, Buffalo Wings & Rings® has an awesome and simple (only two clicks) sweepstakes where you could win $5,000 cash!

If you are hungry for that prize, you better hurry: the sweepstakes ends 6/2/19.

Sports and great food are my family’s love languages so when you combine the two, we are in heaven every time we visit Buffalo Wings & Rings.

Read on to find out more about my Flavor Adventure with them!

We decided to check out Libby’s Southern Comfort in Covington for a friend’s birthday lunch. It met the criteria for our restaurant adventure because all of us had never been there before and we had heard great things.

Great Food for a Great Price at The City Goat

January 26, 2019 By Nedra McDaniel Leave a Comment

I have a rule that I try to stick to when it comes to date night, we have to go eat somewhere that we have never been.

It helps mix things up and there are so many great restaurants new and old around Cincinnati that it’s hard to keep up.

The risk is that you either try a place that you love and you want to go back again and break the date night rule or you try a restaurant and it’s just average and you wish you would have stuck with one of your favorites.

I liked the City Goat in Covington so much that I broke my date rule and ate there twice within a week.

I love getting behind the scene access during a food tour because I find food production pretty fascinating. I was recently invited to visit the Sugardale Bacon Plant in Massillon, Ohio to learn more about the company and how bacon is processed… because life is better with BACON!

Fun Things for Families to Do at the Biltmore

August 30, 2018 By Nedra McDaniel 4 Comments

A visit to see the Biltmore Estate was on my list for years and I was really excited when we were invited to experience what the Biltmore offered for families during a weekend stay.

The Biltmore also happened to be the last destination that my mom was able to visit before she died.

She absolutely LOVED her visit there and her face would light up when she would talk about it.

I knew that I wanted to experience and get a sense of why it was such a special experience for her.

Spice Up Your Meals with Queen City Sausage

August 19, 2018 By Nedra McDaniel Leave a Comment

I’m a BIG fan of spicy food. The spicier the better. I’m not a good person to ask if something is spicy because more times than not, it’s not spicy enough in my book. In fact, most times when someone has a product that they claim is spicy, I’m still left disappointed…my husband is convinced that I’ve burned off all of my taste buds over the years. When I found out about the Wicked Hot Ghost Pepper Sausage from Queen City Sausage, I was cautiously optimistic.
