Why Roots Will Be Your New Favorite Restaurant On Main Street
spoonuniversity.com

A few weeks ago, Main Street added a new, unique addition to its seemingly never-ending list of restaurants. Roots Natural Kitchen, which replaced Yogoberry, offers healthy rice bowl and salad options to its customers. They have already made options on their menu, which is displayed on a chalkboard above the workers' heads or you have the opportunity to create your own green masterpiece! If you haven't gone and tried it out yet, here are some of their special items that you won't want to miss out on.

Kale

For the base of a salad, you can choose between Arcadian mix, kale or spinach. I have yet to get anything but the kale because every time I have gotten it, it has been so delicious! It is always so fresh and crispy, and when it is mixed with the dressing you have selected, it never gets soggy. If you choose to get a rice bowl over a salad, your options are brown rice or Roots rice but you still have the option of adding one of these green, leafy choices.

Pesto Caesar Dressing

There are tons of dressing options when you get to the end of making your bowl/salad like lemon tahini, cilantro lime and basil balsamic. One of the dressings, however, sticks out and that is the pesto caesar dressing. This dressing is filled with flavor and is also super light and doesn't weigh you down after eating and make you feel like a bowling ball. For all you spicy lovers out there, a great part about ordering this is having the option to add Sriracha!

BBQ Tofu

The last portion of ordering at Roots is deciding whether you want chicken, mushrooms or tofu added to your concoction. They offer a unique option, which is tofu smothered in BBQ sauce. It may sound odd, but it is actually incredibly delicious if you are a fan of the tangy flavor. It comes on the already invented "The Southern" rice bowl, which is rice, kale and other yummy sides like roasted broccoli and charred corn. Don't knock it till you try it!

If you haven't stopped by Roots Natural Kitchen on Main Street yet, now's the time. I promise, it won't let you down!

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.
