Fake It to Make It

by LauraFebruary 2, 2010 Entertaining

Got Hangover?

by CodyDecember 30, 2009 Food and Booze

We’ve all over-indulged and woken up the next morning feeling less than spritely. Chances are some of you will be feeling that way Friday morning. (Especially if you decide to go through the entire list of our champagne cocktails).

POP! Champagne Cocktails for New Year’s Eve

by CodyDecember 29, 2009 Entertaining

New Year’s Eve just isn’t New Year’s Eve without that *POP* of the cork. All year ’round, whenever I crack open a bottle of bubbly, I say (usually to myself) “Happy New Year!”

Sandy’s Potato Latke Recipe

by CodyDecember 15, 2009 Entertaining

Always a fan of fried potatoes with salt, I love latkes, but due to the fact that they contain eggs, I rarely get to enjoy them. OMFGstyle contributor Ann Cohen, in the true Hanukkah spirit, generously shared her mom’s potato [...]

Chai on Life

by CodyDecember 10, 2009 Food and Booze

Nothing like a good pot of chai to warm you and your guests up on a chilly winter evening. This might not be the real way to make authentic chai—I wouldn’t know—but it certainly tastes better than anything you can [...]

It’s the Freakin Vegan, Part II: How to Feed Your Token Vegan Dinner Guest

by LianaNovember 12, 2009 Entertaining

So, let’s say you consider yourself a fancy food person (I hate the word “foodie” – reminds me of a “plushie”), and let’s say you have a fashionably adventurous palate. You’re throwing a dinner party and there’s a vegan among [...]
