    Past Words of the Day


    A popular--and relatively new--nickname for the city of Houston, which refers to “chopped and screwed,” an authentically Houston style of music.

    A nickname for St. Louis, originating in the Native American burial mounds that were once common to the city.

    A trip to the liquor store.

    Sunny P is a local nickname for Sun Prairie. I guess it's a takeoff of the orange juice like drink, Sunny D.

    Strong black coffee served in very small cups and infused with a hefty dose of sugar; a real pick-me-up, not for the faint-hearted.

    A reference to the relatively laid-back pace of the city.

    A popular breakfast food in New England; a pancake made with cornmeal, generally served with butter and/or maple syrup. And to the gluten-free...a good cause for celebration (and a visit to Rhode Island)!

    A historic mansion that is now used to host visitors and events, and to offer bourbon tastings and house a bourbon cooking school.
