Happy New Year!

What a perfect day to start the year off right with a great quote!

I chose this one because I think it’s important to start the year off with some positive thinking!

Every day is the best day for me because I get lots of pets and snuggles!

Ho Ho Ho!

Christmas will be here in just a few days and I’m sure you have all got some delicious dinners planned, but in Japan, KFC is the place to be for Christmas!

It all started in the 1970s when KFC launched an advertisement for a “Kentucky for Christmas” meal and even though Christmas is not a national holiday in Japan, the advertising campaign was very successful. Now each year around Christmas time, families all over Japan get together for a bucket of chicken!

If you ask me, that sounds like a great holiday feast!

  • Bonus fun fact: We know someone who was in a KFC commercial back in 1985!

Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays!

Hey there,

Did you know that the first beneficiary was signed up for Medicare in 1965? Yes!  It was President Harry Truman!

With Medicare AEP going on right now, I thought this would be the perfect time to talk about Medicare.

  • What is Medicare?
    • Medicare is Federal Health Insurance.
  • Who Qualifies for Medicare?
    • People 65 or older, some younger people with disabilities, and people with End-Stage Renal Disease.
  • What is the difference between Medicare & Medicaid?
    • Basically, Medicare is Federal Health Insurance and Medicaid is a joint Federal and State Program that gives health coverage to some people with limited income and resources.

We hope this helps, and if you have any questions feel free to give us a call!

Hello,

Guess who’s backkkkk? Miss me?

My brothers and I were on a little vacation for the last couple of months, but don’t worry, we are back and will continue to spread our inspirational quotes, knowledge, and jokes each month!

I thought this was the perfect quote to express how you all must have felt while I was gone.

Hey there! Colt here,

Not only is July National Hot Dog Month, but today is National Hot Dog Day, so I am here to share some fun facts about Hot Dogs!

 

  • Americans consume over 20 billion hot dogs per year! That’s a lot of hot dogs!
    • About 150 million of those hot dogs are eaten every Fourth of July. 
    • The average American eats 70 hot dogs in a year!
  • The coney dog, a Michigan favorite, has been around since as early as 1914. 
    • 2 of the many Coney Island restaurants in Michigan include Detroit restaurants, American Coney Island & Lafayette Coney Island which were originally opened by 2 brothers.
    • Many people throughout the years have enjoyed trying both restaurants to determine which had the better coney dog. 
  • The hot dog was originally called the “Dachshund Sausage” due to its uncanny resemblance to the beloved dog breed. 

I’ll bet you never thought you needed to know this much about hot dogs, but now you can wow your friends with all your new hot dog knowledge!
