    Intro To Cooking: Grandma’s Dessert Snack Mix

    Thanksgiving to New Year’s (and the few days after when you’re lying around attempting to kick the hangover) is pretty much the universal stuff-your-face time period. It’s suddenly acceptable to drink gallons of Starbucks holiday drinks and eat desserts like there’s no tomorrow.

    From CollegeFashion: How To Wear Trendy Winter Tights

    As the weather continues to grow colder, wearing our favorite spring and summer skirts and dresses becomes increasingly difficult if not impossible. If you’re a girly-girl, or just one to embrace a year-round feminine look, you’ve probably been trying to adapt to the changing seasons without losing any of your style.

  • Going Abroad? Tips for Traveling Through Europe

    Going Abroad? Tips for Traveling Through Europe

    Spending the summer abroad can be a lot of fun, but being abroad for awhile can start to take its toll on you when traveling around a foreign country. While I had the best time studying at Kingston University in London this summer, I also broadened my cultural horizons and learned a few things about traveling and surviving in a foreign country.

    The Doctor Is In: Be Your Best Self in 2010

    2010 is here. What do you hope to achieve this year? What intentions will you set? For many of us, we resolve to change our health- to lose weight, to quit smoking, to eat healthy, to cut back on booze, to join a gym. We get motivated. We make positive steps forward after the indulgences of the holidays. And then – bam! – a few weeks later, it’s all over and we feel crappier than ever.

    Saturday Read: I Am The Messenger, by Markus Zusak

    I hope your New Year’s Eve was both as eventful and wonderful as mine. And I hope that you’ve made a very important resolution: to read more! Admit it, you have some time before you hit the hay or with your morning coffee or while taking the bus around campus to pick up a novel and dig right into it.

    CC Beauty Live: Packing Heat in 2010

    I’m a fan of packing heat. From my blow dryer that is. Sadly, I have burned through three blow dryers in the past year. Much like Tiger Woods, 2009 was not good year for them. And then Christmas happened. I asked for one thing and one thing only: the Bespoke Labs T3 Evolution blow dryer.

  • The Best Products of 2009

    The Best Products of 2009

    I am a huge sucker for, well, lack of a better word, stuff. I’m not A&E “Hoarders” bad, but I love to shop and I love fun, innovative products, even if they don’t really benefit me in any way. Neti Pot anyone?

    Cure That NYE Hangover With The 2009 Music Mashup

    Right now you’re probably curled up in bed nursing a bottle of blue Powerade. We’re right there with you, sister. As much as we hoped that giant order of Pad Thai post-bar last night would prevent the worst hangover of 2010 (…yet), the garbage can next to the bed proves otherwise.

  • WTF Friday Goes Wild

    WTF Friday Goes Wild

    At first glance I thought this was your typical case of a hungry baby gettin’ some milk. But the look on that other guy’s face tells a much more scandalous story. WTF is really going on here, we’ll never know.

    The CC Weekly Weigh In: Resolutioning

    Happy New Year! Can you believe it’s 2010? Where did the year go? Where did the decade go? Hell, where did my sequin jacket go? And why did I think that chasing a Jager Bomb with a bottle of Andre was a good idea? Oh lord.
