It's National Chicken Wing Day! To celebrate, Haley and I are doing the @First We Feast Hot Ones Challenge. It's a bit different though because I am trying each of the sauces and giving my opinion on which wine I would pair with them. Haley also flips the tables on me and makes me do a little interview. I hope you enjoy our spicy journey!
