There's nothing wrong with dressing up in a costume to have a little Halloween fun if that's what you're into. But if you're like a lot of folks, you'd rather avoid the tricks, and go for the treats, and pay homage to the ghosts and ghouls holiday by just drinking a little witches brew.

Ingredients

Your Rx Kit

Nothing is worse than being sick, but being sick your first time away from home can be particularly rough. Grab a container with a lid and fill it with these must-have items. Keep it nearby in your dorm, and you'll be ready to hit the books (or the parties) again in no time.

Hot Mamma!

For most moms, it's inevitable. Little Johnny and Janna are born, and any sense of style they had goes out the window. They become consumed with all things baby—food, formula, nap schedules. All of that rightly so. But this doesn't mean you have to turn in fab for frump, mommy.

For the Gents

Whether buying for your husband, son, father, boyfriend or boss—these gift ideas are sure to bring a smile to his face this holiday season.

Developing a Wellness Habit

They say it takes 21 days to develop a habit, and that's been my wellness goal since returning from vacation -- I want to develop the habit of getting to the gym everyday and doing at least 30 minutes of exercise, whatever it is. So far I'm mostly spending time on the elliptical (that's where the TV is, after all) but even that feels like a nice accomplishment -- 3-4 miles of workout that doesn't get me so sore that I'm not up for going back the next day.

Viktory Lives Here

Geography dominates the hip-hop genre. Rappers are as identified with their hometowns as they are with their sound. Cities that ruled the airwaves defined most eras of hip-hop: New York in the mid-'90s, New Orleans in the late-'90s and Atlanta's crunk-centric mid-'00s. Mississippi, though full of rich musical history, was never a hip-hop lover's first stop.
