Too hot to eat

It happened as people were leaving the annual fireworks show at Freedom Park.

Are you as tired of winter as I am? There's a good sign spring is coming, and it has nothing to do with a groundhog.

No matter how much you may be trying to deny it, it's fall. Pools are closed, beaches are empty and your favorite ice cream places are closed- or are they?

Could I give you the top ten best restaurants in Schenectady? Sure, but that doesn't necessarily mean they're places you can afford. Instead, being that it is my hometown, let me give you a list that's not only delicious but also cost effective!

Right around this time last year, Vinnie asked about which shows you thought should be on "Triple D." Well, it's a year later, Food Network still hasn't been here so maybe they need a little push. Here are some of my ideas, what do you think?

Many Scotia residents and people from all over the Capital Region were disappointed when Jumpin' Jacks had to cancel their fireworks on June 30th because of impending storms. They did give a reschedule date of July 22nd, but that has just been cancelled too.

Snow is coming to the Capital Region tomorrow so though it may not feel like Spring, it is, which means Summer is right there behind it. You know what gives me hope for warmer weather? Ice cream and one of my favorites opens today.

We are blessed to have so many good burger joints in the Capital Region. Which one took home the honor of being the best?

This is it, this is everything for a whole lot of people in the Capital Region, Jumpin' Jack's in Scotia opens today. The best part is it is supposed to be a beautiful warm spring day. I have to think if I wasn't working on the air this morning I would be getting in the car right now and getting into a line that is already forming for the open at 11:00 am.

Even though it's freezing outside, there are certain things that help us think of warm weather in the Capital Region. One of the many includes the legendary Jumpin' Jacks.

The great American Drive In hamburg and hot dog stand is a dying breed in America, just like the Drive In theater. Luckily, we are bucking that trend locally and still have a legendary Drive In to get some fast and good food at.
