Top 5 Holiday Sweets You Can't Resist
It's Always Autumn

With Christmas right around the corner, every dessert I see seems to be even more enticing than the last. It’s hard to stay away from all of the peppermint, double fudge, gingerbread-y goodness when it seems to be everywhere; so, in honor of the holidays, I wanted to list some of the most delicious Christmas delights!

1. Peanut Butter Blossoms

Peanut butter cookies alone are to die for, but that half-melted Hershey’s’ center? Such a pleasant surprise!

2. Fudge

There’s so many different kinds of fudge: double chocolate, white chocolate, candy cane, butterscotch, triple chocolate! I mean seriously, what more could you ask for than such a versatile, rich dessert?

3. Sugar Cookies

Oh, sugar cookies are such a classic; they are the epitome of Christmas. Every time I think of December I envision a family frosting some Santa sugar cookies by a warm, crackling fire. Sounds pleasant, doesn’t it?

3. Reindeer Bait

Not everyone knows what reindeer bait is, but they’ve probably seen it before called by a different name. It pretty much consists of taking an already delicious snack (Chex Mix) and making it sweet and, *gasp*, even more delicious! Plus, the addition of M&M’s and marshmallows gives the snack a delectable pop!

4. Hot Chocolate

Although not exactly a dessert, it might as well be. I mean what else would you call a hot cup of smooth, creamy chocolate? Add a couple mini marshmallows and you’ve got yourself a warm holiday treat.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

As an English Major in college, I have a lot of writing and especially creative writing pieces that I work on throughout the semester and sometimes, I'll find it hard to get the motivation to type a few pages and the thought process that goes behind it.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
