Kayla recommends Johnny’s Hall of Fame Bar and Grill
Last Friday a friend and I went out for dinner to Johnny’s Hall of Fame Bar and Grill downtown on Court Ave. It was the first time I had ever been there and let me tell you I LOVED IT! It’s a very casual and relaxed environment so you don't have to worry about getting all dressed up. You can just wear a comfortable t-shirt and jeans. You will seat yourself at the bar, a table, a booth, or on the patio. They have big screen TVs all around the restaurant with sports playing and games in the back like pool and different arcade games. The prices are very reasonable and you can either order food off the menu like we did or you can go back by the games and get food from the buffet. From what I saw people carrying they have different things like popcorn, nachos, and pizza.
I ended up getting their French dip sandwich with onions and French fries. It was huge and delicious! So with the atmosphere, good pricing, and great food I would definitely recommend this restaurant and plan on going back very soon.

Baked Asparagus Wraps
These asparagus wraps are extremely simple to make and taste phenomenal. I was introduced to these by a friend following a gluten-free diet. The recipe can be made even healthier by wrapping multiple spears in each piece of meat. I have made them for multiple events and they always got rave reviews for their fresh colorful look and great taste. When I first shared with my nieces and nephews that I’d made them I heard feedback of “yuck” and “gross.” I convinced them to try the spears at our Easter lunch and they all requested seconds and thirds.
Ingredients
1 bundle of fresh asparagus
1 tub whipped cream cheese
½ pound of smoked ham, turkey, or prosciutto
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Rinse asparagus and break spears at their tender points
3. Spread a small amount of whipped cream cheese on the edge of a spear
4. Wrap spear in meat and place on baking sheet
5. Once spears are arranged on sheet lightly sprinkle with pepper
6. Bake for 15 minutes
7. Serve as an appetizer or main course
Condition of the Month – Tension Headaches
Tension headaches are one of the most common forms of headache. They can occur at any age, but are most common in adults and adolescents. If a headache occurs two or more times weekly for several months or longer, the condition is considered chronic. Tension headaches result from the contraction of neck and scalp muscles. One cause of this muscle contraction is a response to stress, depression or anxiety. Any activity that causes the head to be held in one position for a long time without moving can cause a headache. Such activities include typing or use of computers, fine work with the hands, and use of a microscope. Sleeping in a cold room or sleeping with the neck in an abnormal position can also trigger this type of headache. Other causes include spinal misalignment, eye strain, fatigue, alcohol use, excessive smoking, excessive caffeine use, sinus infection, nasal congestion, overexertion, colds, and influenza. Tension headaches are not associated with structural lesions in the brain.Through a combination of chiropractic care, Active Release Techniques problem-focused muscle work, and postural exercises we are able to resolve or greatly improve most tension and migraine headache conditions. To see if our care may be able to help you call 515.309.1217 to schedule a new patient visit or complimentary consultation.
