When the city editor at The Daily Record, Jarred Opatz, went on vacation, I put in a lot of hours trying to fill his shoes. The job seemingly never ends, and I had a lot of overtime when he was gone. So, with Jarred back, I decided to take Friday off, and Wendi was able to get the day off, too. I wanted to go to Raising Cane's in Columbus (a place that specializes in hand-breaded, deep-fried chicken tenders), but Wendi preferred staying close to home. So, we compromised: We stayed close to … [Read more...]
Holcomb’s Popcorn, Nuts & Ice Cream Now in Wooster
On the Saturday of my birthday week, my husband, Bobby, introduced me to a new ice cream place in Wooster. This was not an official birthday celebration event, as both he and I were done celebrating. He was done on Thursday night; I was done on Saturday morning. However, whenever ice cream is involved, I really don't need a reason to get it. I think ice cream is one of the main food groups, at least it is in my house and chocolate is another! Holcomb's Classics Gourmet Popcorn and Nuts, … [Read more...]
Side Trips Provide Sites to See Within Our Sights
When my husband, Bobby, and I took our trip to Pennsylvania, we had in mind some things to do. While I am usually the trip planner, this time Bobby did the planning.

The trip to Pennsylvania was no different. While we were waiting for our tour guide, Mark Brugh, in Sharpsburg, Maryland, we walked … [Read more...]
Great Ice Cream from A to Z’s
I lived in Medina County growing up. I moved back to the area, well close enough, by moving to Wayne County several years ago. However, I have never gone through Hinckley, Ohio at least not to my knowledge. That is until last Saturday, January 28, 2017. My husband, Bobby and I traveled to Walton Hills to Bedford Reservation with our dog, Owney. Both Bobby and Owney wrote about our adventures there, but I get the chance to write about our visit to Z's Cream and Bean. After a chance to walk … [Read more...]
Animation for Any Generation
I have a confession to make. I have no problem going to an animated film (aka cartoon) without taking a child being with me. When Beauty and the Beast came out in the early 1990's I saw it at least 1/2 a dozen times by myself. I never feel compelled to justify going by dragging a kid along. I am not sure my husband Bobby feels the same way. However, I will say there is an added dimension when you go to a film geared towards children with children in tow. Bobby and I did just that a couple … [Read more...]
