Baskin Robbins on 34th Street has a kosher ice cream cake :) My office got one for me so that my kosher coworkers could partake.

I went to a yoga class (yoga vida down at 666 broadway). I was home sick from work but by 430 I was getting antsy from laying around.

When she goes back to school, I highly recommend not going to an online, for-profit "institution". I work in the online advertising industry and those schools are the worst. They specifically target military because they know you have money from the government to spend. When you get out, you have a worthless degree. State schools and community colleges offer a much higher quality education at a fraction of the price.

Does anyone cut their own hair to save money? by nookularboyin Frugal

I cut my husband's hair - it's not a buzz or anything, I have actually learned how to style it! The scissors and comb (which I only bought about a year after I started doing it) make a big difference - much easier with scissors meant for cutting hair than regular ones.

I think I got both for under $15, which is less than 1 haircut would cost him. And he likes mine better because when he goes to a real salon they always screw it up.

I'm the frugal one; he doesn't care (though he's much more frugal than he used to be). But in this case he likes the frugal way better anyway.

I'm getting married. Advice, give me all of it. by fivefoottwoin TwoXChromosomes

Never go to sleep mad at each other! If you are in a fight and have to go to bed, make up and say you can deal with it in the morning. Huggle (hug+cuddle) before you go to sleep.

ETA: Married 1 year (anniversary in 3 weeks); together for 6.

I added some yoga links! And edited the formatting to make the questions stand out. (Feel free to get rid of my formatting if you don't like it!)

Who is your celebrity fitness inspiration? by [deleted]in xxfitness

Zuzana! (If she counts.) I also adore Jillian Michaels - not exactly her body, but her spirit and her drive. Hilary Swank has a great body. I remember watching her at the Oscars (or something like them) when I was in middle school thinking how amazing she looked.

P.S. Recovered anorexic here as well :)

It IS a woman or a man's responsibility to be clean and maintain good hygiene. But yes, women should not have to wear hot clothing and makeup or do their hair every day.

I didn't know about it but I'm going to do it today, and break it up throughout the day. I just did 15 before work.

Have you seen BodyRock.tv? She has killer workouts and they are short (but they are intense enough that short is fine).

No idea. Probably not. It was on super clearance at REI which is the main reason I got it; it was pure luck that it turned out to be so awesome.

I like yogadownload.com, but there are tons of other free resources online for yoga. ExerciseTV has some good ones, and Yoga to the People has podcasts; Dave Farmar and Yogi Wade also have good podcasts. I actually wrote a list of free resources here - free yoga!

Been using this scrub for years! I think since early high school so probably... almost 10 years :) I love it. (My husband actually uses it too and he has been using it since before I met him - guess we were made for each other.)

I love doing this! I get a professional mani/pedi about 1-2/month and in between I do my own maintenance.

She's my favorite! I also like Jennifer Galardi.

ETA: Jennifer is more cardio-focused. Try also Angie Stewart on ExerciseTV.
