An Ode To Mac and Cheese

Hooray for cheesy noodles!

An Ode To Mac and Cheese
Honeyville Farms

Ah, yes. Cheesy noodles. Who would have thought that putting a wonderful, creamy cheese on noodles would be so good? This is an ode to my favorite food: mac and cheese.

Mac and cheese is delicious. However, homemade mac and cheese beat any other kind of mac and cheese. Here is how obsessed I am with mac and cheese...

I used to order mac and cheese off the kids' menu whenever we went out to eat when I was a little kid. I would read through the whole kids' menu. Chicken tenders? Amazing, but no. Cheeseburger and fries? Tasty, but no. Corn dog? Nah. Grilled cheese? A wonderful creation, but still no. Mac and cheese? Finally, yes.

One time when I had my tonsils out and could eat barely anything, mac and cheese was there (and thankfully my mom, too, because she made homemade mac and cheese for me). When you cannot eat anything, you can always eat mac and cheese. My grocery list always consists of mac and cheese. I

stare at it in the aisle and tell myself not to get so much. Should I get a few boxes or the pack that comes with 5? The pack with five, of course. I always end up getting those microwavable bowls, too because they're easy to make for when you have little to no time.

I'm obsessed.

Mac and cheese is also great with bacon in it. Mac and cheese is also great with bread crumbs on top of it. Kraft mac and cheese is great, too. Shells and cheese are great, as well. Mac and cheese is just simply great in general.

If you don't like mac and cheese, I honestly don't understand how/why. You're missing out. Actually, I'm going to go make some mac and cheese right now. (Fun fact: I actually did go make a box of Kraft mac and cheese after I wrote this, and I ate the entire thing.) I hoped you liked this ode to mac and cheese. It sure deserves it.

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.
