Here, I’ve got you covered with a light-yet-satisfying main dish, sweet and savory snack, and a protein-packed spin on s’mores. Roll up your sleeping bag - we’re going glamping!

In case you missed it, Barbie now comes in tall, petite, and curvy.  Cue the internet explosion of praise for embracing a wider variety of body types.

You NEED This Shadow Trio

Nicole Rodriguez

Beauty

If you're in your thirties, there's a strong chance your first makeup encounter was with Wet 'N' Wild, and not an actual beauty counter.  Investing your hard-earned babysitting money in cheap lip gloss, Studio Line hairspray, and of course, Gobstoppers and Bubbletape, was a rite of passage.

Gym Pants You Can Actually Afford

Fact: we're living in the age of back-alley butt injections and $200 workout pants to show them off in.  Save yourself some cash by investing in the wisdom of Bret Contreras, and with these picks for bottom-boosting bottoms that won't break the bank.

Sesame-Ginger Turkey Meatballs

Nicole Rodriguez

Mmmmmm.  Meatballs.  They should really be their own food group.  The standard parmesan and parsley variety is always a crowd pleaser, but why not try an Asian spin on the red-sauce standby?  Utilizing a milder ground meat, garlic, ginger, scallion, and sesame, these are a great way to savor the flavor of Chinese take-out, minus the excessive sodium.

Letting Go - Not Letting Yourself Go

Nicole Rodriguez
February 1, 2016
Mom Stuff

As a mother, I view myself a bit like my old rug.  That’s not meant to be a sad, pathetic metaphor for being passive or stepped-on.  But there are parallels between my physical self and the rug, ones that reflect the fine line between letting go and letting oneself go.

My name is Nicole, and I am addicted to peels.  Whew.  Glad I got that off my chest.  So where does an addict get her fix?  I score on the cheap, at the seemingly little-known website, Makeup Artist's Choice.

The Couple That DOESN'T Work Out Together

While Instagram might tell another story - think photos of buff, young, couples in skimpy gym wear - working out in tandem with your partner isn't necessarily the best thing for your relationship.  Here are three reasons why it's totally cool to fly solo at the gym.

Gussied-Up Cottage Cheese Pancakes

Nicole Rodriguez

Food

I love a good three-ingredient recipe.  But sometimes the end result of these triads is a waste of their individual parts.  Case in point: the cottage cheese pancake.  This gussied-up, protein-packed version tastes like a weekend treat and hits the table in minutes thanks to the blender.

On My Way To A Happy Life

Most of the books in my daughter's library are time-tested classics.  Corduroy, Where The Wild Things Are, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, and of course, Goodnight Moon are some of her (and my!) favorites.  If it was written after 1975, I'm not too interested.

Mizon Snail Recovery Gel Cream

It's all the rage now, but I've been obsessing over Asian skincare products for years.  Flying solo in Seoul, Hong Kong, and Singapore yielded some of my favorite beauty finds, but I'm truly spoiled by my proximity to Korea Town and Flushing, Queens - both a K-Beauty junkie's dream.
