    Put Down The Hot Dog and Feast on Some Man-Candy

    Memorial Day: little children running around carrying an American flag on a stick; picnic baskets; spiked lemonade; Grandma Millie making blueberry pie; old fashioned Coke bottles; dogs wearing red, white and blue sweater vests; remembering the men and women who have served our country…and….Hot dudes. With their shirts off. On the beach.

  • 5 Reasons You’ll Want to Die This Memorial Day

    5 Reasons You’ll Want to Die This Memorial Day

    With the exception of Arbor Day, there is no “wait, what is this holiday about” holiday more dangerous than Memorial Day. Sure Columbus Day has its controversial discussions about killing Native Americans and St. Patrick’s day has its suspicious green beer, but neither come close to the madness that is this 3-day weekend.

  • Body Blog: Research Says Skip That Turkey Sandwich

    Body Blog: Research Says Skip That Turkey Sandwich

    I make spectacularly healthy (or so I thought!) turkey sandwiches for lunch every day. Fresh bread, tomatoes, cheese, lettuce, turkey…. they are beautiful and healthy works of art. I’m constantly thinking of new ways to spice ‘em up. Sliced avocado? Swapping out provolone for some swiss? Perhaps a few slices of green apple?

    The Weekly Ten: No Plans Memorial Day? No Problemo!

    Ahh who doesn’t love a holiday where you get a three-day weekend? Is there anything better than waking up on a Monday and realizing you have absolutely nothing to do? Unless, of course, you’re one of the many who are trekking down to the beach, Florida, or anywhere awesome.

    Tomorrow is Memorial Day and you know what that means: beer, hot dogs, and your dad making inappropriate weiner jokes by the grill. But you know what else it means? Summer. is. here. and it’s time to bust out those summer whites that make you look super chic and extra tan.

    The Morning After: A Very Bromantic Evening

    Lesson learned: No good ever comes of hooking up close friends. Especially when you’re right in the middle of their bromance sandwich.

  • Intro to Cooking: The Ultimate Nacho Dip!

    Intro to Cooking: The Ultimate Nacho Dip!

    Remember that episode of Seinfeld where George and Jerry are sitting in the coffee shop talking about salsa, because Jerry thinks its popularity is due to the fact that “people like to say ‘salsaaa’”? Well, not only is it fun to say, but salsa is one of the more nutritious condiments around. It is very low in calories, with virtually no fat, and contains a wealth of nutrients like vitamins A, E, C and K, potassium, copper, and manganese.

    CC Beauty Live: Summer Eyes

    Finally, it’s time for bright eye makeup to liven up your evenings! In the summer, it instantly becomes more acceptable to wear colors other than black or gray at night. I don’t know why, but so it is (OMG, too. much. Pretty Wild).

  • One Month Challenge: Man-Free May, Week 4

    One Month Challenge: Man-Free May, Week 4

    Alright everyone. I owe you an apology. Last week’s article made no sense. Is she done? What happened? Did she mess up? Why is she crying? Just be? What does that mean?? This is really not very man-free!

  • True Story: I’m Spending My Summer In The Country

    True Story: I’m Spending My Summer In The Country

    The summer before my freshman year of college, I packed my bags into the back of my car and drove to the big city. Cue the music, feel the rain on your skin, no one else can feel it for you… My blonde hair was whipping in the wind, my shades on. I was starting a whole new life, and although Raleigh, NC is nothing like LA and my life is far from an episode of The Hills, it was really exciting.

    Saturday Read: The Book Thief, by Markus Zusak

    It’s no secret: I’m a fan of Markus Zusak. Ever since I read and reviewed “I Am the Messenger” back in January, I’ve been itching to dig into “The Book Thief.” I have heard wonderful things about this one from all my fellow bookstore employees and trust me, this review will not be an exception.
