6 days to find the perfect gift
 Posted 2/8/2010 3:00:00 PM
It's the same challenge every year - finding just the right Valentine gift.
You might want to e-mail this page to your sweetie to give him some ideas - AskMen.com has put together a pretty appealing list.
And, to be fair, their list for what to get the man in your life also looks smart and well-balanced.
Of course, what I'm curious about, is how do you show your appreciation the other 364 days of the year? Feel free to share on our Facebook page.
Another reason to wear red today
Posted 2/5/2010 7:00:00 AM
It's National Go Red Day and the American Heart Association encourages everyone (men, too!) to wear red to help increase awareness of heart disease, the #1 killer of women.
Aside from reminding you of the importance of your health, Macy's is making it extra enticing to wear red.
As a national sponsor of the Go Red For Women movement, Mayc's is holding their Wear Red Sale through Sunday to raise funds and awareness for Go Red For Women.
Customers who wear red will receive all-day savings throughout the store. Customers not wearing red can purchase a Red Dress pin for $2 and receive the all-day savings. 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the pins wil be donated to Go Red For Women.
Countdown to Ellen (not me!)

The rich, funny one :)
Ellen DeGeneres makes her debut on American Idol next Tuesday.
Although we're accustomed to her humorous ramblings, she insists she's going to take the judging seriously. Will she be as tough as Simon? We'll just have to watch to see.
Healthy Super Bowl snacks
Posted 2/2/2010 3:00:00 PM
I know, it sounds like an oxymoron, but it can be done, and tastily!
Here are some tips for a more nutritious (and heart-healthier) Super Bowl Sunday:
1. Use baked chips instead of fried.
2. Serve bean dip instead of sour cream dip.
3. Substitute air-popped popcorn for nuts.
4. Replace fried mozzarella sticks with chicken skewers.
5. Make the sub sandwiches healthy with whole-wheat bread, turkey breast and lots of veggies.
6. Remember the crudite' tray - an assortment of veggies with a low-fat dip.
7. Keep the alcohol intake to a minimum.
8. Substitute diet soda, iced tea or water for regular soda or juice.
9. Get up and dance during half-time to burn some of the calories.
What's that stadium called?
Posted 2/1/2010 3:00:00 PM
While the Florida Marlins await completion of construction of their new stadium in Downtown Miami, they're gearing up for another season at the old stadium.
Formerly Dolphin Stadium.
Formerly Landshark Stadium.
Formerly Dolphin Stadium.
Formerly Pro Player Stadium (I had forgotten the whole Fruit of the Loom period).
Formerly Joe Robbie Stadium.
Guess we might as well get used to it now.
The annual Marlins FanFest is Saturday, February 13th from noon - 6 p.m. That's when single game tickets go on sale for the upcoming season.
