The other day, I had a good laugh when my sister sent me a dancing video about finding an onion ring mixed in with your fries at Burger King. I needed it too, I have been so stressed out trying to keep a business afloat and the non-stop political commercials terrorizing me, it was nice to enjoy something lighthearted. While I only eat at Burger King once every few years, I remember being younger and the joy of finding a tiny onion ring or two that had somehow made it into the fry carton. While I was driving from Three Forks to Helena to pick up...

On an evening where the highlight should have been watching Montana native Sean O’Malley fight at UFC 306, it instead turned into an all-out battle between myself and a pork butt. Unfortunately, the pork won, and I’m still paying for it. While we watch a lot of sports at our house, the UFC pay-per-views are always a highlight. It’s an even bigger deal when one of our favorite fighters is on the main card, like at the recent event at the Sphere in Las Vegas. We always try to plan out something great to eat to go along with the fights, and about...
