This Spring Break, my roommates and I decided we are going to take a trip to visit Kentucky (where one of my roommates is from). I have never been to Kentucky before and I can not wait to see where my roommate grew up. Here are some things that we have discussed doing and are looking forward to!

1. Go Visit Rabbit Hash 

I know this sounds crazy, but there is a town whose mayor is...A DOG! An elected dog as a mayor sounds insane! We want to go visit this small town and see if this "myth"our roommate has been telling us about the "dog mayor" is true! Maybe we will even get a picture with him. This town is located in Boone County, Kentucky and only has a population of about three hundred people! I had more in my graduating class!

2. Try goetta. 

Goetta is a delicacy in Kentucky and is a German-American sausage that people tend to eat for breakfast. My roommate's grandparents mentioned this to me when they came to visit so I can not wait to finally try it! This breakfast sausage is a combination of meats as well as oats and is similar to Scrapple (something I grew up eating and LOVE)!

3. Go four wheeling. 

Although I do not know if we will get to do this, I know that four wheeling is an extremely popular activity to do in Kentucky when it is not too cold out! Based on the time of year, I do not think we will get to but if we get the chance to I know I will be so excited. I have always wanted to go four wheeling!!

4. Try a snowball from Schneider's.  

I have had snowballs in Maryland many times and they never disappoint. Apparently at Schneider's, they have the best snowballs ever! Snowballs are a combination of Italian ice and ice cream in one and it is like heaven in your mouth! I have always enjoyed snowballs and am always willing to try again and from different places!

5. Go to Skyline. 

Skyline is the place to find the best chili! Skyline chili is well-known in Kentucky and is constantly being recreated by people who have eaten there. It is a combination of cheese, chili, and spaghetti. If that doesn't sound mouth-watering, then I do not know what does. I know I will be full for days after eating it, but I will be completely content with that!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.
