🍔 Roy Rogers Fall Menu in Frederick, MD

I’ve always thought of Roy Rogers as more than just a quick meal, and this new fall menu makes me love it even more.

I tried the Tumbleweed Burger and the Chicken Sandwich, and honestly, both hit the spot. The smoky barbecue sauce and crispy onion straws are such a good combo.

And yes, I upgraded to the Outlaw Combo because I can never say no to Holster Fries.

🏡 MaryLou’s Real Estate Tip of the Month👇

Whether you're buying, selling, or just nosy about the market like the rest of us, check out MaryLou’s latest tip & hit reply if you have a real estate question. I’ll make sure she sees it!👇

The mystery of the Zillow Zestimate: Zillow’s Zestimate can feel like a crystal ball for your home value, but in reality, it’s just an algorithm crunching numbers —it doesn’t see your brand-new kitchen, the extra care you’ve put into your landscaping, or the charm of your neighborhood. 

For you, this can be confusing when the Zestimate doesn’t match what homes are actually selling for nearby. That’s where I can make all the difference: I bring local expertise, up-to-the-minute market knowledge, and an understanding of a home’s unique features to give you a true picture. I look through the lens as a buyers’ agent and appraiser to determine and pinpoint the value. Algorithms can estimate, but I educate.
