Have You Ever Visited a Hollywood Wax Museum @USFG

Have you ever visited one of those tourist-y Hollywood Wax Museums?  No matter where we vacation:  Orlando, San Francisco, LA, New York, Branson, there is always one of these wax museums.  For a long time I avoided them thinking they were a) kinda creepy, b) too tourist-y and c) just creepy.  

One one day shortly after the passing of the legendary M.J. (Michael Jackson), we were on vacation and I saw a large Michael towering over me.  He was all fashioned up in Billie Jean get up, you know the one with the loafers, glittery socks and the glove.  The figurine was so lifelike plus a neighboring business was blaring "Beat It".  I gave in and forked over the admission.  I admit I was really surprised by the "realness" of the figures and the attention to detail.  Not so creepy after all and well worth the price of admission.

You can't miss the Hollywood Wax Museum Entertainment Center in Branson. Yes, it's the building on Highway 76 being climbed by a giant Great Ape! If you want to get up close and personal with your favorite stars and pose for fun pics with them, the Hollywood Wax Museum is definitely the place for you. While there, you'll also get the scoop on their pets, pet peeves, and accomplishments. 

After seeing stars, you can head next door to become a star at Shoot for the Stars Mini-Golf. While putting through palm trees and paparazzi, you'll take the 18 steps to becoming one of Hollywood's elite. 



After "being discovered," you'll have the chance to discover what paranormal activity is lurking inside the Castle of Chaos, the world's first 5D adventure. You'll see, hear, feel and smell the chaos as you shoot for the highest score. Finally, you'll score big if you're The Chosen One at Hannah's Maze of Mirrors, where Princess Hannah of Savannah is awaiting rescue. You'll need to find your way through 288 potential turns among hundreds of mirrored walls and archways and some areas where you see infinite reflections in every direction.

We have visited Branson several times and this year we are looking forward to our first family with my sister and her family.  They are visiting Branson for the first time and I am looking forward to sharing some of our fave spots with them including the Hollywood Wax Museum Entertainment Center in Branson.  Here's a pic I snapped a couple of years ago as we drove past the museum.  The museum stops traffic and makes for a wonderful photo op.

Maple and Brown Sugar Air Fryer Bacon

I've been raving about my Instant Pot but now I have a new favorite... the Air Fryer.   O M G This thing is amazing!  I don't know why I was so late to the Air Fryer craze but I am so glad I am finally onboard.   I've been talking about getting one and then after my aunt posted pics of her new air fryer, that was it off to Best Buy I went.   I wasn't sure how big of a unit I would need but I figured the 2.5 liter would suffice.  I chose the Chefman Express.  It was priced on the shelves for $85 but online for $75.99 and my local store matched the price AND I had my Swagbucks Best Buy QR code so I got 500 SBs + 2 SBs for every dollar spent so that's another 170 SBs.  So, after discounts, my air fryer ended up costing me less than the sale price.  Woohoo! There were some fancy ones on the shelves with digital display but after checking the reviews I figured since I don't fry much this model would suffice. When I think of fried foods, I think

I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip. I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima

A Pit Stop at Sho Nuff Hot Tamales in Greenville, Mississippi

My cousin and I were driving along and our tummies were rumbling as we crossed the Mississippi state line on US-82.  We didn't really have any particular dish in mind for lunch but we started seeing signs saying "Hot Tamales". "Hot Tamales", my Philly cousin asked. "Yep", I replied nonchalantly.  "I remember reading something about hot tamales being a big thing here in the Delta."   We kept driving and finally decided we would have to try these famous Mississippi Delta hot tamales. Now to decide which one.  There were literally dozens of tamale spots.  We happened upon a restaurant called Sho-Nuff and decided it was the one. We parked and entered the large, delightfully decorated restaurant.  The wall was plastered with local and national awards in recognition of those hot tamales.   There was a sign touting Sho-Nuff as the winner of the local newspaper's favorite restaurant award and 3rd place winner in the annual  Delta Hot Ta
