When I first moved to Amarillo there weren't a lot of places to get a good pizza. I am from Chicago so I know good pizza. I live all kinds. They don't have to be the Chicago style deep dish but a good pizza is important.

We found out early in the new year that we had our first restaurant casualty here in Amarillo. We lost Fuddrucker's over on I40 and Soncy. Some people were surprised. A lot more really weren't.

I know it seems we go through this every year. I mean it's no surprise that it snows here in the Texas Panhandle. I know we don't get as much snow as other parts of the country. It seems though that the snow brings out the worst in our drivers.

I have made several stops in Tulia. Mainly for work related issues. I will tell you if you haven't stopped at the El Camino while you are there or driving through you are missing out.

When you are a new mom we all know there are many sleepless nights. Your baby has a weird schedule. So you have a weird schedule. Oh and how many times do you find yourself peeking in the crib? You want to make sure they are still breathing.

Have you taken a Covid test? Have you needed one recently? If so you may have noticed that they are a little hard to come by. So if you can come by one I suggest you do just that.

It seems like every time you turn around someone else has come down with Covid. I feel like you are in the minority if you haven't. It doesn't even matter if you are vaccinated or not. Everyone is getting it.

When I read about this new sandwich at Arby's I knew I had to try it. They have a Diablo Brisket Sandwich and a Diablo Chicken Sandwich. I knew I had to try them.

It's been several years since I have actually thought about this. Being able to solve this mystery over the Christmas break made me happier than I could even express. There are things your kid says that you don't know where it came from. Has this happened to you?

The news came out recently that Baxter Black is not doing well. I saw the messages via Facebook recently. The more I looked into it the better the story seemed to get.

It has been a really long couple of year. We dealt with a pandemic. We learned how to live through that. The one thing I can't learn to live with is when someplace takes away my favorite meal.

Think back to win you were growing up. The awkwardness, the changes in your bodies. There were all kinds of changes. It was tough. These changes are tough for both boys and girls.
