I don't know about you, but I spend a lot of time making up the perfect meal in my mind. It always goes like this: "I'd have my granny's turkey and dressing with cranberry sauce, and a side of my mom's green beans, and maybe my family's mac and cheese, wait, maybe a steak grilled by my husband, wait ..."You get the idea. It's a fun game to play, and one that immediately makes you hungry. And we wanted to know what your picks would be, so we asked our Facebook audience to do just this.

There were the occasional short haircuts and some moments of shedding during life’s stressful seasons, but, for the most part, my hair has always been pretty full. That is, until very recently. Life has gotten the best of me, and I have been s-t-r-e-s-s-e-d to the max, which has caused some pretty intense hair loss.

Scouted selects products independently. If you purchase something from our posts, we may earn a small commission. I have worked tirelessly to achieve the bum I have. Beyond squats, I do numerous glute exercises to maintain a perky butt. I’m talking glute bridges, lunges, deadlifts, donkey kicks—the works. As much of an asset my hiney is, I still think it could use a little more work. However, I’ve avoided any procedures (no BBL for me) because I don’t really need them, and, frankly, I’m terrified.

Monroeville, Alabama 'To Kill a Mockingbird'-inspired statue in Monroeville, Ala. (Amber Sutton) AlabamaHarper Lee and other authorsAlabamians love their literary history, and no author and book are more beloved than Harper Lee and To Kill a Mockingbird. Lee grew up and wrote her iconic novel based on her experiences in the small town of Monroeville, and the town still celebrates its favorite daughter. We also love Alabama for Fannie Flagg, Truman Capote, Rick Bragg, Mark Childress and more.

If you’re in the mood to celebrate a special night with your girlfriends this month, consider Galentine’s Day – an alternative to Valentine’s Day that has become increasingly popular in recent years.
