Anyone ever eat an avocado seed?
I keep seeing videos and articles about how eating the seed of an avocado is great for you since it's packed with nutrition. Has anyone ever tried it? The preferred method I think is blend it into a powder for smoothies. Does it have a weird taste? Or cause any stomach issues?

Self Tanner Suggestions?
So, summer is coming up and I have been busting my butt in the gym so I can wear shorts and show off my progress. The problem is, I am ghostly white. Like, sun absorbing white. Is there any light self tanner I can apply to my legs that won't turn me orange or look completely unnatural? I only want to make them a couple…
