And I'm not mad about it.

Why Eggs Are The New Kale

Kale used to be the "it" food—not only could you make almost anything out of it, kale is also hella good for you. It's green, so its packed with antioxidants and other good things as well as being rich in fiber. It also has tons of vitamins, like Vitamin C, A, K, and B6. Kale is good in salads, as chips, sautéed, and massaged. Even Beyonce loves kale.

But kale should watch its back. Avocado stole the spotlight for awhile (with good reason), but it's clear that the new hip way to eat anything is to put an egg on it.

Not only are eggs delicious, they are also arguably just as healthy as the former food king and green leaf, kale. Eggs are high in protein and Vitamin D, B2, B6, and B12, and provide selenium. Eggs yolks have gotten a bad rap for their cholesterol, but as long as you stick to one egg a day, you are in the clear.

Eggs are are all over foodies Instagram's and there is even a yolk porn hashtag.

Eggs are very versatile—they can be eaten with any meal, at any time of day.

Eggs can be for breakfast.

Eggs can go on toast.

They can go on noodles.

Or soup.

Put an egg on a pizza, trust me, you won't be disappointed.

Up your Taco Tuesday game with brunch style tacos with eggs.

You can put an egg on top of almost any vegetable and make it great.

You can even put an egg on top of kale.


You really can't go wrong. So head out to your local farmers market or food co-op, get yourself a dozen eggs, and get crackin'.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
