15 Things We Should Be Eating More Of
Nutrition Realm

All of us struggle with eating healthy, as America has one of the largest obesity epidemics worldwide. With so many greasy food options, how can we help ourselves? Chick-Fil-A treats me better than my own family sometimes, as does a good chicken biscuit and frosted coffee in the morning or in the car. Here are a few things that actually taste good that make us not feel like we have just crawled out of greasy hell.


1. Chicken

Yes, I wish it was fried chicken too, but with the right toppings, you may find yourself preferring a grilled chicken sandwich instead.


2. Sweet Potatoes

It's like diet candy, minus the chemical flavor.


3. Dark Chocolate

No, not pure cacao. Dark chocolate is a perfect substitution for milk or white chocolate.


4. Plain Greek Yogurt

Tastes exactly like sour cream on your tacos, no wonder it's not so good paired with fruit and granola.


5. Green Beans

Arguably, the best beans.


6. Shrimp

The best news EVER.


7. Cauliflower

If you have yet to have mashed cauliflower, you have not truly lived.


8. Chia Seeds

They don't taste like anything, sprinkle some on your toast or in your yogurt and boom, instant health.


9. Black Coffee

We all know what this does...


10. Oranges

You are lying if you say you hate oranges.


11. Grapefruit

Half a grapefruit with a little sugar is THE perfect way to wake up.


12. Avocados


13. Eggs

Preferably hard boiled, but a fried egg never killed anyone.


14. Tomatoes

Did someone say, salsa???


15. WATER

The actual cure-all.

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
