Lists

Pink has never been my favorite color. I was more of a blue or green, maybe sometimes purple kind-of girl but according to a lot of products out there, everything I own must be pink.

As I was skimming through some articles, one made me stop: "Here's the Best State for Older Americans - And the Worst." I knew New York wouldn't be listed as the best. But, listen I'm not one to put us down, by any means! I'm just aware of the troubles that could be considered living here. I also didn't think we'd be the worst either, which we're not. But, where did we fall?

A new survey lists the sandwich that is considered the best of each state or what sandwich the state is known for. Honestly, I've never in my life had this sandwich, nor will I because it just sounds gross.

I love that it seems like almost every day there's a brand new song to crank up. Some are just making me smile, others are making me dream of warmer weather, and some make me just want to sing along.

There seem to be so many stores and restaurants closing around here lately. I mean, what gives?! It's not like we don't go out, right? I go out all of the time. So what has gone wrong with some of these places? For them, it's too late. But, honestly, maybe they just weren't what we wanted. There are plenty of businesses, whether chains or locals from other areas

Do you agree with our picks?

I'm sure if I said to you, "What do you think of when I said 'Upstate New York,'" you'd have something that pops right in your head. We all have something that we think of when we think of our hometown, but it seems like it's different for everyone.

Living in Upstate New York, while some might want to call it "Small-bany" others love calling it home. We're surrounded by such a beautiful area and so close to so many cool places to explore! We've also had some pretty cool stuff happen

It seems ridiculous to think it's illegal in New York state to do something like warming up your car in your own drive way on a cold day, but it is. After we posted about that a couple of weeks ago, it got me thinking, "hmmm, what other dumb laws do we have in New York?" Turns out, there are a bunch!

Unless you live in Hawaii or Arizona, you probably think winter is miserable. But how miserable are New York winters compared to other states?

Kicking off the new year with a bang! Of all the towns and cities and villages within our lovely New York state

My name is Marissa and I've admitted prior that I am a binge-aholic. This is not a joking matter and is completely serious. I'm not saying it's a problem. In fact, while it may deter my personal growth in social settings, it has allowed me to expand in my knowledge of pop culture so when I am in social setting, I'm great at pop culture trivia.
