About Me

You know you're going to give your kid a complex if you call them "The Mean Bean" instead of; sweetiepie, sugar face, bear, etc. My nickname stuck- even when I got nicer. AND my affinity for all things BEAN happens to be tremendous; Coffee beans (my coffee feign), Cocoa beans, Vanilla beans, chickpeas (yes, it's a bean), black beans....and so on. As for the "mean" part, depends on which ex-boyfriend you ask. I think I'm super sugary. And no, I will not be writing any guides about beans. Unless I get a special request.

There's a morbid obsession that people have with celebrities who die. It is strange, but we're already obsessed with what kind of toiler paper they're buying and who they're shagging that it's no wonder we'd be curious of how they died. Bizarre, sad, strange, mysterious, "natural causes" what are the strangest celeb deaths you can think of???

Traveling is one of my very favorite things to do and because of the recession airlines and travel companies are knocking down their prices like crazy and you can take exotic vacations for nearly half of the price! Or you can explore more of the history and excitement of aviation! If you've got a few bucks to spare, check out some of these awesome deals, museums, etc. and take flight! Au Revoir!

There isn't much that I love more that wine. I love the history behind the wine and the entire experience; from opening the bottle to consuming it. Which is precisely why I love GRAPE STOMPING!!!! You can have some good family fun, get your feet dirty, and then consume (non-stomped) wine at the end of the "strenuous" activity. Check out some of the local grape stomping events near you, or plan a min-vacation!

These women are insane. Plain and simple, that is why they are OH SO entertaining to watch. The question is; who are these women??? What do they do? Where does their money come from?? Why do they have a TV show? Why, oh WHY do they think they are so, so, special? The show chronicles the lives of these women but doesn't really give any background to how, where, and most importantly WHY. So, here's a little insight to The Real Housewives of New York City....that is, if you really care.

I would be lying if I said I was some camping expert- I'm not. My idea of camping is staying in a rustic cabin in the mountains, shower and toilet included. Peeing in bushes? Not exactly my idea of fun. That being said, this weekend I was coerced (and promised there would be s'mores and wine included) into camping for three days....it ended up being one of the best times I've ever had. The key is making sure you've got all the essentials, you know what to expect and you've got a few bottles o...

It's summer time and when summer kicks in we tend to be a little bit more conscious of our bodies- we're eating less hearty meals and saving the calories for winter hibernation. With that we're also wearing smaller clothing, which means-MORE SKIN. Now, making sure the skin that shows- looks good isn't always easy and often....we find ourselves with A MUFFIN TOP. No one wants that. So whether you're eating a muffin top, or you have one- let this be inspiration to work towards getting rid of ...

In honor of Fourth of July only afew days away, I couldn't help myself- I HAD to create a hot dog guide. Sure, hot dog's didn't give America freedom, but we have been celebrating and "freely" eating them during times of leisure for years. The hot dog is the epitomy of American culture; hot dogs, baseball games, and pop culture. Pretty much sums it up. Fire up the grill, crack a beer and pick your toppings!

When I came across a title online that said, "tattooed pigs" I instantly though, "NO WAY..." but apparently, this is how many tatoo artists practice. Though FRUIT may be a much more moral way of practicing your art form, the tattooed pigs sure are interesting.....
