"Forrest Gump" is easily one of my favorite movies. It spawned a restaurant franchise, Bubba Gump, and has very valuable lessons. Here is a list of my favorite moments from the movie.

1. When Bubba tells Forrest about all the types of shrimp.

2. "Life is like a box of chocolates."

3. Forrest's journey when he keeps running.

4. When Forrest and Jenny reunite after not seeing each other for a long time.

5. When Forrest just wanted to run and nothing else.

6. When Forrest discovered his love of ping pong.

7. When Forrest found out he had a son.

8. Forrest and Jenny's childhood friendship.

9. When Forrest realized his purpose in the Vietnam War, which ended up making him a hero.

A Tribute To The Lonely Hispanic

In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, I’d like to share a few thoughts about being Hispanic in a country where it’s hard to be Hispanic.

A Tribute To The Lonely Hispanic
Veronika Maldonado

Just a little background information; my dad was born in Mexico, came to the U.S. as a newborn and became a citizen when he was 25 years old. My mom was born and raised in the U.S. as were my grandparents and great grandparents, but my great-great grandparents did migrate here from Mexico. I am proud to classify myself as Hispanic but there are times when I feel like I’m living a double life and I don’t fit into either one.

An Atlanta Weekend

A New Yorker's quick weekend in Atlanta.

An Atlanta Weekend

On a weekend visit to Atlanta, I had to adjust to people being personable and congenial to me. Although I had lived in the South before, I had to get reacquainted with southern hospitality due to visiting from Brooklyn. Atlanta Uber drivers are very down to earth, offer snacks, and provide great genuine conversations. The opposite is the lay of the land from Brooklyn Uber drivers. The southern hospitality is provided not only from the Uber drivers, but restaurant servers, cashiers, or random people giving suggestions. Brooklyn is a dope and unique place to live, but short on the warmth more often than not.

20 Traditional Hispanic Recipes To Feast On In Honor Of Hispanic Heritage Month
@hispanickitchen

Like many of my wanderlust-ridden friends and family, I'll travel anywhere for the promise of good food. I once went to Thailand in pursuit of traditional massaman curry and Spain for authentic patatas bravas — neither of which let me down.

What usually ends up being the biggest letdown is coming home to miss the traditional, local cuisine. It may not have quite the same ambiance, but trying to cook authentic dishes at home can increase appreciation for the craft and culture behind them.
