Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThe Hunger Games film is coming out in 3 days and we're crazy excited over here at ChickAdvisor.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThis We Love Friday, we're about to offer a solution to a problem that's too long plagued us all: soggy cereal. This item is called the Obol, the Never-Soggy Cereal Bowl, it's US$19.99 and in my opinion, worth every penny.
Why yes, you are seeing that bowl correctly. It has two compartments, one for the cereal and one for your milk. Only, and...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basMy Mom used to make these when I was a kid.

The recipe is from a neighbour but I've tweaked it a bit to avoid using artificial food colouring, which as you know, is the devil.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup Soft...

Ingredients:
1 3.5 oz package of instant vanilla pudding mix (or you can make your own, you Martha...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basWith Halloween coming to an end, it may seem like all we have left is the cold month of November until the Christmas season hits. That isn't the case anymore! Movember is the new November- the month of growing out our 'staches to raise funds and awareness for mens' health.
Not only is this a great cause but it's a ton of fun too! Think of how cool you'd look with a Tom...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI'm no domestic goddess by any means, but I do love a good arts and crafts session. While searching for some Halloween décor ideas, I came across this very easy, quick, simple craft- so simple and easy that even I, clumsy as I am could recreate it- a great alternative for those who are 'pumpkin-carving challenged'. It's a great craft because it's so time efficient...
