The Foods You Should Eat While Reading These Classic Novels

Food is a big part of everyone's lives. You need to eat at least three meals a day just to survive. It can change your mood from a single bite. Personally, I love eating while I'm reading a good book; it just adds to the experience of being sucked into a great story. Here are the perfect snacks to eat while reading some classic novels, to really add that special something to the afternoon with your favorite book.

Pride and Prejudice

Afternoon tea is the perfect accompaniment to this classic Austen novel. The tea and finger sandwiches are perfectly British, formal, and will make you feel like you're at the high society ball getting dissed by Mr. Darcy.


1984

A big bowl of plain, unflavored oatmeal should set you in the mood to be controlled by a totalitarian government.

Moby Dick


What else, but some fried fish?

The Great Gatsby


Deviled eggs were a very popular dish in the 1920s. There's just something about eating these tasty bites that makes you feel as rich and classy as Gatsby.

Jane Eyre

If you've never read this great story, I won't spoil anything for you. However, some sticks and marshmallows might turn out useful for you at some points in the book.

The Catcher in the Rye

Every distraught teenage boy loves some greasy, unhealthy fast food. Cheese fries will take you on Holden's wild night, from delicious goodness to 2 a.m. regret.

Alice's Adventures in Wonderland


A swirly rainbow yule log cake has the perfect whimsical essence to accompany Alice into a trip down the rabbit hole.

To Kill a Mockingbird


Twinkies were first released in the 1930s, and they were cheap and easy to pick up from any small store. Tag along with Scout's adventures while munching on what could be one of her go-to snacks.

Frankenstein

The trendy black ice cream is just like Frankenstein's monster as created by Mary Shelley. It's a bit scary looking on the outside, but sweet and good on the inside.

The Little Prince

Rainbow funfetti cookies have that sense of childhood wonderment and joy that the Little Prince encapsulates. Scarf them down with a glass of milk as you find your way to B-612.

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.
