5 Holiday Foods I'm Gonna Need Y'all To Try Because, Just Sayin', The Taste Will Change Your Life

In This Article:

If you're not sure what to make on Christmas morning, or for a holiday party, or just for a fun snack, look no longer. The following foods are some of my favorites in taste and along with the memories attached.

1. Buffalo Chicken Dip

I may have burnt my mouth so bad I went to the dentist because I ate this right out of the oven, but we're going to forget about that.

2. Fudge

For as long as I can remember, my grandma and her sister made fudge for Christmas. Sometimes I made it my meal, and I have no shame about that.

3. Breakfast Casserole

Christmas morning does not exist without a good breakfast casserole filled with sausage, egg and a little bit of cheese.

4. Materials for a Gingerbread House

Every year, my uncle Jimmy and I make a gingerbread house out of graham crackers, candy and icing. I'm not talking a 1800s cabin. I'm talking a double story house with a garage and driveway and chimney.

5. Mac 'n Cheese, obviously

Ever since I was little, I put peas and carrots and tuna in mine. Is that weird?

If you plan on inviting me to your party, or if you're in my family, I hope you consider making or buying one or more of these foods. I will love you forever and you'll be my best friend.

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.
