So you've been a devout "Gilmore" fan since the first episode aired in 2000. This most likely means you are currently flipping out about the fact that "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life" airs today. Like you, I fantasize about having a cup of coffee at Luke's and exchanging obscure movie references with Lorelai and Rory.

Of course, something the Gilmore girls are known for is their ability to shovel copious amounts of junk food into their mouths (and still be incredibly skinny like... what?). To truly embrace the craziness that the Gilmore girls exude, you're going to need some junk food comfort food of your own to get through your binge watch of the new series. Here's a list of the top nine "Gilmore Approved Foods" you'll want to nosh on while watching the crazy antics of Lorelai and Rory Gilmore this weekend!

1. Pop Tarts

A pantry staple of the Gilmore house, pop tarts are a must when watching Gilmore Girls! If you don't have a box on hand, are you really a fan?

2. Pie

Lorelai and Rory are often seen chowing down on pie at Luke's Diner. A Gilmore recommendation would be a big slice of apple pie, probably with a large scoop of ice cream on top.

3. Burgers

It's been said by multiple sources that hamburgers are the closest that a Gilmore will get to a salad. Try topping one of these babies with lots of cheese, bacon, and other savory goodies to make it even better.

4. Chinese Food

While you might not be able to get questionable orange chicken from Al's Pancake World, Chinese food is always a good option! Grab some (not so sketchy) orange chicken, chow mein, and a fortune cookie before you sit down to binge watch.

5. Mallomars

Mallomars are such a big deal to the Gilmores that Rory made Lorelai a Mallomar display for her birthday one year. (Mother/Daughter goals?) These snacks are always good when you feel like you can't eat anymore, because you can and will eat a whole box of Mallomars.

6. Fries

Dubbed as "the Devil's starchy fingers" by Mrs. Kim, fries are a must if you're on this whole binge watching train for the long haul. Try a basket with a big side of your favorite condiment and a large dusting of salt.

7. Pizza

For all of the binge-watching that our beloved Rory and Lorelai did themselves, they usually had a big slice of cheesy pizza to chow down on. A box with a side of garlic twists is probably a safe bet for your Netflix needs.

8. Danishes

Luke is famous for his cherry danishes, loved by Rory and Lorelai (but mostly Lorelai) for many a year in Stars Hollow. Grab a big plate and dig in, just don't use two cell phones at once while eating one.

9. Coffee

Duh.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
