I Tried Hello Fresh, And Yes, It's Worth The Hype

The food is delicious.

For many months, bloggers and Internet sensations have raved about the food delivery service "Hello Fresh." When a coupon came in the mail, I knew I had to try it out.

Before we begin, my views are my own and I am not affiliated with Hello Fresh. I used this in late February, as a reference date.

For those that don't know, Hello Fresh is a meal delivery service that ships meals right to your door. There is a variety of different plans including a Vegetarian Box, Regular Box, and Family Size. You can choose between $7.49 a serving to $9.99 a serving plus $7 to $8 of shipping. As a college student, it is a lot for a weekly plan but for those who value fresh ingredients and convenience, then this could be good for you.

Personally, I would reserve Hello Fresh as a treat for weeks I'm busy or want to try out new recipes. I love the variety of options — anyone could be happy and choose something they love. The recipes are easy to follow and have pictures so you know what your food should look like. I wish there was a way to customize what sides you get since I got sweet potatoes and I am not a fan of them. The cooking process was fun and my boyfriend even got in on the action. It was so nice to get to cook and do something I love.

The southwest chicken and mashed potatoes with onions were amazing. I wish there were recipes that used simpler cooking materials because you have little cooking tools in college and making the mashed potatoes were difficult, but if I had a masher it would be simpler. The balsamic meatloaf was delicious and the food was truly amazing. The food is delicious and I love how they come in the right portions. They give you exactly what you need and nothing less. Overall, Hello Fresh is a really good service and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a new food subscription service.

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.
