fifty fattiest foods - louisiana
meredish:
Beignet -This fried dough pastry is a southern staple, and especially popular at Café de Mundo down in New Orleans. They’re served in orders of three, and topped off with powdered sugar. Can we say sugar coma, anyone?
What’s in it? - Fried dough and powdered sugar
How bad is it? - The beignets at Café de Mundo have about 11 grams of fat each!
Worth it

brklyn: 10 Things I wish I could go back and tell... →

3. Don’t skip class. Don’t skip class. Don’t skip class. Don’t skip class.
7. Don’t get a credit card. Just don’t.
Absolutely these. My 2.3 gpa that was the result of going to class 2-3 times per semester and my 5-figure credit card debt are easily my biggest regrets from college.
I just got a voicemail from a woman named…(I swear this is what she said her name was)…Royal Blue.
I really hope that’s her real name.
mysliceofcake asked: After four years of school in Texas, then moving back to Oklahoma...whenever I visit my friends in Texas, they say my Okie accent comes out after a couple of drinks. In reality, it's the drawl I picked up when I lived in Texas.
I’ve noticed that when talking to current and potential clients on the phone, I kinda slip into my ‘aww…shucks’ Texas accent.* This is totally subconscious and I think at least partially because most of the clients are from rural areas and have accents.
So should I just keep doing this or should I try to overcome my and talk normally?
*I also slip into this when I’m...

Deep-dish pizza - I mean that’s kind of obvious, right? After all, deep-dish pizza was born in Chicago in the 1940s at Pizzeria Uno. It’s a little heavy for the likes of me, but I still indulge in a single slice once or twice a year when out-of-towners come for a visit.
What’s in it? - I think…
I will pay someone $100 for a fresh Gino’s East with patty sausage right now
Bless her heart
A client just said “please excuse my language” after saying “it’s been hell”
How fucking adorable

File under things you should probably not say two weeks before you take a job paying you 200k more than your current contract.

Fuck Mike Anderson

– I received this text from my 60-year-old father over an hour after I went to sleep last night. I’m officially boring.

Ooohh, there might be hope. Just overheard boss’s wife (we share a building with her real estate office) say something to someone else about going to SXSW stuff all day. Hopefully she’s taking her husband with her.
I went to great lengths to schedule my boss in a deposition four hours away today so that I could ‘work’ from the bar and watch basketball all day.
So of course, I find out last night that it got rescheduled. Son of a bitch.

fifty fattiest foods - california
meredish:
In-N-Out Burger Double Double - Sorry to disappoint all the In-N-Out fans, but this beastly burger from the West Coast’s popular fast-food joint tops the charts as CA’s fattiest food.
What’s in it? - Two beef patties, lettuce, tomato, two slices of American cheese and spread
How bad is it? - This monstrosity of a burger contains 41 grams of fat. That’s nearly twice the fat content...

Brought my laptop to the bar so I could take a 2-hour basketball-watching working lunch. Except my laptop won’t turn on.
TeenNick goes retro with '90s programming →
fuckyeah1990s:
Looks like Nick is catching onto the 90s Movement. I’m going to contact Nick and see if they’ll hire me as a producer/creative consultant. BECAUSE I AM THE 90s. (link to article submitted by -kellye.tumblr.com)
If they aren’t showing Hey Dude and Salute Your Shorts, they’re doing it wrong.

Gotta give a shoutout to Alffs Florist here in Austin.
I ordered flowers to be delivered to my mom for her birthday at 1:37 p.m.
I got a text from my mom thanking me for the pretty flowers at 1:46 p.m.
Now granted, Alffs is in the ground floor of my mom’s building, but that’s still pretty clutch.

Why do hotels leave the radio on for new guests? Do they not know it’s creepy as hell to walk into a hotel room with music coming from somewhere around the corner that you can’t see?

Also, I better make sure we get the Disney Channel. Loved me some Lizzie McGuire!
I wish this was going to be on the CW or ABC Family instead of the Disney Channel. Tough to make an interesting show about college that’s g-rated.
HAPPY TEXAS INDEPENDENCE DAY!
We, therefore, the delegates with plenary powers of the people of Texas, in solemn convention assembled, appealing to a candid world for the necessities of our condition, do hereby resolve and declare, that our political connection with the Mexican nation has forever ended, and that the people of Texas do now constitute a free, Sovereign, and independent republic, and are fully invested with all...
