Make a mean almond milk with coconut water
Yes, buying almond milk at the store is oh-so-convenient… but it’s not nearly as yummy or good for you!And if you want it to be REALLY tasty make it with coconut water instead of plain water (if coconut water isn’t your thing, you can always use plain water and this still tastes good).

Fuck, guys. I love wine. I’m the self confessed wino of the Empire. You know what I also love? Sharks, Star Wars, inappropriate jokes, and kitchen stuff shaped like animals. I have combined my love of all those things to bring you this round-up of awesome wine bottle stoppers. (Psst: these make REALLY good gifts, so get your bookmarking fingers ready.)

How do I make K-Cup storage look cool?
Like many other workplaces across the country, the Keurig obsession has hit our office — they have these nifty little containers for making coffee, tea, or just about any other hot drink you can imagine, and saves lots of time. But how on earth do you display them in a non-boring way?
Take powdered supplements in shot glasses
There I was, bitching to my personal trainer friend about how my knees hurt, but I hate taking my glucosamine chondroitin pills because they’re SO BIG. But I wouldn’t drink the powdered stuff because I can’t down the whole glass at once. That’s when she dropped this genius on me…
