This Kentucky Buffet Lets You Feast On Unlimited Crab Legs, Sushi And Hibachi For One Price

What woolly worms, persimmon seeds predict for winter in Kentucky | Exclusive

Forget the weather app for a minute. Louisville's woolly worms have something to say. So do the squirrels, persimmon seeds and those lumpy, yellow-green hedge apples littering the parks. And considering The Courier Journal’s annual Folklore Forecast has called six of the past 10 winters correctly, we’re inclined to hear them out. Their message this fall? You may get a break on shoveling. Before you put the snow boots in storage, however, remember: A mild winter can still deliver a nasty surprise. We’re reading caterpillar stripes here, not negotiating with Mother Nature. For more than a decade, we’ve headed outdoors each fall to see what weather lore has to say about the winter weather season ahead. Instead of computer models and satellite images, we consult the signs that generations of backyard forecasters have used to decide whether to stack more firewood. Sometimes, those signs have been pretty persuasive. In 2023, the mostly rust-colored woolly worms we found suggested a mild winter. The winter of 2023-24 largely obliged. The following fall, an abundance of unusually large hedge apples warned of rougher weather ahead. Cold and ice followed. You may like: Why do apples change color as they ripen on trees? That's

The Origin Of Texas Roadhouse Is Not At All Where We Thought

In 1993, the first Texas Roadhouse popped up in Clarksville, Indiana. As Beyonce might say, "This ain't Texas." Entrepreneur Kent Taylor made a strategic branding move when he established a restaurant that welcomed families and served steaks, ribs, and homemade sides at affordable prices. After securing investment, Taylor set to work creating an environment different from other contemporary restaurants. With wooden details and rustic decorations, the place felt like Texas. Country music played in the background as meals were gulped down and line dancing took place. Even the restaurant's mascot, an armadillo, hails from the Lone Star State.
