I mentioned last night that Skittles is adding a new flavor to a bag of candy near you - mustard. They've teamed up with French's to make these available for National Mustard Day August 5th. My question as Scott Wynn would say is "Do we need this?"

My thought is a big NO! This just sounds absolutely disgusting. I do not like mustard. If it ends up on a hot dog or hamburger by mistake that I've ordered, fine I can eat it. But I will NEVER order anything with mustard on it. So why on Earth would I want a piece in my bag of Skittles that tastes like mustard?

If you enjoy mustard and are actually looking forward to trying the new flavor...more power to you! Enjoy it! Me however, I think I'll sit this one out. Here is the article about it from People Magazine.

One of my favorite things to do is to go to the theater. Not for a movie...but a play. I like a good broadway musical, and there is almost always a play that Great Lakes Theater puts on every year that I want to see. This year, that play is "Dracula: The Bloody Truth". The synopsis is that it's told from Van Helsing's point of view and is the story of Dracula. Except, this is supposed to be a funny version.

Over the course of the show, only three actors play 40 characters! I've seen a play like this before and it gets quite comical watching them change characters. I've seen Dracula made into a ballet (that was boring for an 11 year old), now I'm looking forward to seeing how Dracula can be made into a comedy.

I think I have mentioned it here before. Many moons ago, I kinda fell onto my living room coffee table. After said day it was quite wobbly. Still managed to do its function but was just not as sturdy as it once had been. I have been meaning to replace it for some time now...and over the weekend I FINALLY did!

I went shopping at Abbey Ann's on Cuyahoga Falls Ave in Akron to see what they had. JACKPOT!!!! I found the table in the picture :). It is actually so much like what I had and other tables, that it fits perfectly! It has two leaves that can be put up or down (I have one of them up in the picture) and I am so happy with my purchase! Which btw, one of my couches and my love seat came from that same Abbey Ann's location! Originally I thought I was just going to trash the old table (upper right corner of the picture). My mom suggested that I put it out on my back porch, so we took it out there and...BINGO! PERFECT - found a new home for it too.

Always fun to go thrift shopping to look and see what you can find...and at a bargain too!

My oldest brother and his family are in town from Southern California and we are all getting together at my mom's this Sunday. My other older brother will be there as well, and hopefully my sister and her daughters can make it too.

If we are all there, it'll be the first time we've all been together since December. We are planning to do some swimming (my brother's littles are 6 and younger), so they'll love that. We will also have dinner and have to talk business about our vacation home :(. Still, it'll be nice to see everyone! You have a great weekend as well!!

I HAVE to wish my fur buddy Buttercup a belated Happy Gotcha Day! I say belated because it was actually on Tuesday (the 18th). I thought about it last week, then got busy with other things and totally forgot until yesterday...shame on me!!!

He is a very vocal cat. He tells me everything that is on his mind. EVERYTHING! Yet, somehow this one slipped his mind....I think because he turned 5 or 6 this year, he's trying to downplay his age now ;) LOL.

In closing, Happy belated Gotcha Day to my furball Buttercup - part of my family since 07/18/19 <3

This is HUGE!!! Starting tomorrow and lasting for the next month, WQMX is giving away $1,000 every Thursday! When you hear the sounder, that is your cue to call to be the correct caller and win some Summer Spending Money!

You will not know exactly how much of the $1,000 you have won until you're the correct caller and we tell you how much you won. Think about it...some extra spending money to do whatever you want with as we start to close out Summer.

The winning with Summer Spending Money starts tomorrow on WQMX....GOOD LUCK!

Cedar Point seems to be nearly ready to announce what exactly they are doing with the now-former Top Thrill Dragster. Supposedly they are going to keep a racing theme with the ride. Of course much work has gone into changes being made - and the park looks like it's ready to make everything public!

The announcement from Cedar Point officials may be coming two weeks from today (August 1st)! Stay tuned! Read the article from the Akron Beacon Journal here.

I spent A LOT of Sunday outside. First, my mom and I went to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo. I still have not seen the young Gorilla, although we did see the young Orangutan, young Bison, a younger Reindeer, and some young Trumpeter Swans! I tried to get pictures but none really turned out good enough to post.

It was a warm and humid day at the zoo.So much so, you really couldn't tell much of a difference between outside and inside the Rainforest! lol. It was a good day at the zoo though.

Then after dinner, I got MORE steps in because I had to cut my grass. It was looking quite long and needed to look more well-kept. So I got that done and now I can say I am able to just sit back and gaze at my yard.

Hope you had a wonderful weekend and enjoy the week!

Starting this Monday 07/17, I am moving to 7PM-Midnight and I want to go over a couple things so you know what will be happening nightly with me on WQMX.

Every night shortly after 8:00 I will have the Not-so Impossible question for your chance to win my nightly prize.

Then we will still have the New @ 9 at 9:00. I will feature a new song, then we will play Keep it or Kick it (to the curb). This will be your chance to call or text me your votes as to whether you like the song or not. I will tally your votes and announce the results at the end of the hour. Since we value your opinions on the music so much at WQMX, this will be another great way to let us know what you think of the music.

This and so much more coming your way starting Monday at 7PM with me on WQMX! 

Hollywood is coming back to Cleveland! An action movie that will appear on Hulu is going to film here in Northeast Ohio this Fall. They need to cast 30 peopl PLUS extras! If you've ever wanted to say you're in a movie, you may want to check this out. 

Wouldn't it be awesome to tell friends, family, and strangers "Oh yeah...I'm in that movie"?? Who knows...you may get discovered and you could becom the next A-List movie star! Go for it!
