Have You Ever Eaten at the Best Ice Cream Parlor in Kentucky?

3 days ago | wkdq.com | Travis Sams

A popular ice cream parlor with two locations in Kentucky has recently been named the best in the state. Ice cream is the perfect snack for summertime. Whether it be a soft serve in a cone, a milkshake, a parfait, or a sundae, you really can't go wrong with ice cream this time of year. Personally, I am a basic guy when it comes to ice cream. Just give me vanilla or birthday cake flavor, and I am happy. Just writing this makes me want a birthday cake batter milkshake.

This Father's Day, we are celebrating dad...bods!Father's Day is coming up on Sunday, June 15th. In honor of all the dads out here in the Tri-State, we want to honor Dad and his bod. As a dad, I am proud to say that I rock the dad bod. It's 2025, dad bods are the look. It's not a specific body type, but rather a term that describes a body that is not overly muscular but may have a "beer belly" or "spare tire". Or, if your dad bod is like mine, you might look like a man sitting on a chicken.
