Do you ever sit at home and just snack on whatever you find in the fridge. Instead of pouring a bowl of potato chips, you grab the whole back and sit down and watch tv? An hour or two goes by, the show you were watching ended, then all of a sudden you realize you finished the whole bag of potato chips by yourself. This is the definition of bad snacking or snacking gone wrong.
Working in the city (NYC) I tend to come across many tourists, and as much as the city loves tourists, the locals don’t appreciate them as much especially during rush hours. Below are 5 tips to help tourists be less touristic in a big city like NYC:
I am! What is your definition of Social Shopping?! My definition is using social networks while shopping and sharing great finds and asking for recommendations with your friends online. I’m a huge SocialShopaholic in a sense, I share everything with my social networks, from food, manicures, pedicures, to clothes and shoes I get, to books and other electronics, I seek for assistance from my trusted sources, Facebook, Twitter and of course my blog or other people’s blogs.
Whether you’re buying a new car or maintaining one that’s beyond warranty, you could be facing a hefty price tag to drive the automobile of your dreams (or even one that barely meets your minimum requirements). If you find that you are unable or unwilling to foot the bill for your vehicular needs, but you simply can’t get by without a coach, then you should know that there are plenty of ways to cut your costs.
The holiday season is getting closer, and in a month or so you will be exchanging gifts with your loved ones. What if this year you gave your whole family the gift of a week or two in a Tuscan villa?
Tuscany is usually conceived as a summer destination, but there is nothing more underrated than a beautiful winter holiday in this wonderful region of Italy, especially if spent in one of its many splendid Tuscan villas. These accommodations have all been restored to offer you a stay with modern comforts.
At this time of year, there’s probably nothing you want to do less than work out. As the cold weather sets in and the stress of the holiday season takes over, you are probably more motivated to climb under the covers and fall into a food coma for the next couple of months like a hibernating bear than to throw on your gym clothes and hit the treadmill. But this is exactly the season when you should try to stick to an exercise routine.
Due to the status of the current economy, many people are now finding themselves living paycheck to paycheck and are losing their motivation to start or build up their savings.
However, saving doesn’t have to be a hard task if you take simple steps to start and stay on track with the process. Here are some tips to get you started and keep you motivated to reach your savings goal.
Sometimes seeing movies with your kids can turn into a total snooze-fest. Let’s face it: most entertainment aimed at kids is simplistic, sappy, and full of moral lessons that we, as adults, just don’t buy into anymore. It should come as no surprise considering that children are still gaining knowledge and developing comprehension skills that we have enjoyed for years.
The fact that most people have weight loss at the top of their list of New Year’s resolutions is not too surprising considering how much food we wolf down between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day. With feasts galore, family gatherings full of snacking, parties packed with plates of hors d’oeuvres and high-calorie cocktails, and a slew of treats that you need a shovel to wade through, it can be pretty easy to gain a few pounds.
Start with a plan. You really can’t get your entrepreneurial masterpiece off the ground if you don’t have a solid business plan in place to start with. In fact, you’ll need to do a lot of research before you even pen the plan. Consider your niche, analyze the market, and try to determine a strategy to fit in before you ever put together a prospectus to show potential investors.
Going to the shops without any list or even knowledge of what you have and haven’t got in the cupboards can be a disaster. You buy more than you need, and you buy things you might want at the time, but probably won’t later on. Your bill is astronomical and you might still not have the one thing you really needed.
As Thanksgiving once again draws near, so do the decadent desserts and succulent dishes that accompany the holiday. From the delicious turkey to the massive mounds of mashed potatoes, the Thanksgiving feast is a time-honored tradition for households across the country.
Whether you’re buying the latest noise-making toys for your nieces and nephews (that’s right, the holidays are the perfect time to have a little fun at the expense of your siblings!), a bushel of electronics for your friends, or some new perfume that the ladies are raving about, you are likely to end your holiday shopping spree with PTSSD (Post Traumatic Sticker Shock Disorder).
On Sunday, November 7, 2010, over 44, 000 runners registered for the ING NYC Marathon and amongst them was my friend Karen Lui and I’m proud of her. After her race I had to ask her a few questions that we might all want to know the answers to, I love her answers, even more motivation to start or to continue running. If you have any questions to ask Karen please leave a comment, but she seems to covered every question we might have:

In September, Essie notified us with their hot new fall collection, with amazing colors such as Merino Wool, In Stitches and Sew Psyched to name a few.
One of the main reasons that people don’t go back to school is Time. What’s the other one? Money.
You can’t always make more of either of those in your life, but you can change the way you spend them so it seems as though you have more. If you want to have more money for school, you have to spend less in other areas. Even though this is common sense, it can also seem difficult.
They call it your golden years for a reason: because you’re in the money! At least, you will be if you spent a lifetime contributing to social security, a 401K, and other lucrative investments. In truth, it is a golden opportunity to finally get around to all the things you wanted to do (but didn’t have time for). You now enjoy the freedom to travel, volunteer, or simply sleep in for a change.
