8 Reasons Ice Cream Should Be Your Main Food Group

Ice cream is arguably the best food group ever. I'm definitely not kidding, this is a very serious topic. As serious as some topics are, the great thing about ice cream is that it is so fun and genuinely brings joy to life! When people say it's the little things, they are definitely talking about ice cream and the impact it can have on someone, I'm sure of it. If ice cream doesn't consume your life in a positive way, then you definitely aren't eating enough of it!

1. There are a zillion different kinds

How cool is it that you can get almost any flavor you could imagine in the form of ice cream. You can even have ice cream if you are lactose intolerant-- that still amazes me. Now if you say that you aren't an ice cream person because cake is more up your alley, then even better: ICE CREAM CAKE!

2. You can eat it literally anywhere

@lilycooper would probably argue that you should eat it in the shower, you can eat it in bed (my personal favorite), outside in the sun, or eat it in phoenix when you're dying of heat exhaustion. Personally, eating it in bed is my favorite, but outside an ice cream shop is just fine too, or enjoying it from your hammock in the fresh air!

3. Makes any sunny day better

PSA: Ice cream will not taste great if you let the birds get to it. Protect your ice cream people.

Not only does ice cream make for a great treat in the sun, but it will cool you down on a hot day and I'm pretty sure every girl has to take a picture with their ice cream cone when the sun comes out. Or if you live in WA you are still eating ice cream in the rain because that's basically every day.

4. It solves every problem

Honestly, ice cream solves every problem especially when you eat it when you're with your best friends. If you are ever having a bad day, grab a tub and chow down-- I promise it'll take away the bad feelings and make you feel all gooey and lovey on the inside!

5. Awesome first date idea

Okay it doesn't have to be just your first date, but ice cream is always a great idea for a date night! It is the best way to enjoy a night out and a great time to talk when you're in the best mood-- because of the ice cream of course!

6. Great dinner replacement

Or breakfast too! Who even needs dinner anymore when there's ice cream in the freezer. Okay, moms out there might not enjoy this but hey, I'm sure they've done it too! Then no one even needs to make dinner you just have to decide cup or cone and you are set!

7. It makes everyone happy

Who doesn't feel the happiest with a big bowl of ice cream that tastes like pure joy?! You can use ice cream as a pick me up when you're down or you can have an extra fantastic day and celebrate with your favorite scoops for a memorable day!

8. Simple solution to boredom

When in doubt ice cream is always the answer! Never fret, when a friend can't be there, ice cream can! Or if you and your friend are bored, ice cream is still there. No seriously, always an option.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
