I've seen this recipe too many times to count, so I (finally) tried it this past weekend. If you're on Pinterest, you know which one I'm talking about. This one:
3/4 cup almond milk
15 ice cubes
1/2 tsp Vanilla
1-2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/3 of a frozen banana
Verdict? GARBAGE! Tastes like dirty ice chunks. Stay away. FAR AWAY.

“The best/cheapest time to book domestic air travel is on any Tuesday at 3pm Eastern. I heard that awhile ago and have been trying it out the past few trips I’ve taken and it’s dead right.”

“Always keep a bottle of champagne in your kitchen for a special occasion - this is one of the most adult things you can do, in my opinion. Don’t keep it in the fridge, but in a cabinet. And an hour before you need it, just chill it in the fridge.”

“If you don’t want to spend money on dessert after dinner, go to a few different frozen yogurt shops and ask for a sample at each one. This is crazy stingy, but super effective. (This works especially well if you eat dinner in the Union Square area. Fro yo is RAMPANT there.)”
(I do realize this could also be categorized under any of my gross personal confession posts. I'm aware.)

2. Twitter Tip: You can create lists for people whose tweets you don’t want to miss. Am I the only person who didn't know this already?
3. A beautician just told me that the best (least painful) time to pluck your eyebrows is right after you get out of a hot shower. I just tried this, and she's completely right.
