I don’t know about you, but I love creating food and drinks that fit a specific theme, holiday, or color scheme! And the Fourth of July checks all three boxes!
I go all out for pretty much any occasion (like that one time I went to a tiki bar wearing a Hawaiian print shirt and a lei only to be repeatedly mistaken for a server). Whether you are observing the Fourth this year or not, you can still enjoy a delicious cocktail…or 5 🙂
While it’s often associated with Mexican culture, the Margarita may actually be a descendant of three prominent cocktails in America during the 19th and 20th centuries.
I remember it so vividly.
It was the most perfect sunny day. I was on my way to go meet up with some friends at the park. Even though it was a relatively short drive, I still wanted to jam out to some feel-good tunes.

Everybody on the planet knows about the leather motorcycle jacket. It’s easily one of the most iconic fashion items and it has been for over a century. (You read that right: a century!) But just why and how the leather motorcycle jacket has remained popular may surprise you.

When you think of a piñata, you may envision Mexico, the birthplace of the piñata. But Mexico may not actually be the birthplace of the piñata. And the original piñata? It wasn’t made of paper. It was made of clay.
Is your pantry looking a little empty? Are you finding it impossible to order more groceries? I can help you stretch the contents of your fridge and pantry…Depression-era style.
The word cherry conjures up various images for people: their favorite flavor of pie, the heroic protagonist in a Robert Rodriguez film, the most coveted of all the Starburst candy flavors, or a favorite reggae song. In one way or another, everyone loves cherry.

Morning Outfit Syndrome (M.O.S. for short) is no joke. In the United States, M.O.S. is currently the leading cause of Shittydayitis. Symptoms of Morning Outfit Syndrome include, but are not limited to: screaming at the mirror, scrolling endlessly through Pinterest or Instagram for inspiration, and being late to work after crying in the bathroom for an hour.
Do you or a loved one suffer from moderate to severe M.O.S.? Or, do you suffer from P.O.S.? Read on for the cure.
While most people have had a brownie, it seems like few people have ever had the brownie’s less popular albino cousin, the blondie. Little does anyone know, though, that the blondie and brownie are caught up in a strange case of stolen identity. The blondie was backstabbed by the brownie in it’s infancy. What do I mean?
