Who Pays?!
I am newly engaged and starting to plan a wedding (holy crap I had NO idea how much work went into it). I was looking for advice on bridesmaids dresses. Who pays for them typically?

Food for camping
I'm going camping over the weekend and am looking for healthy (or at least semi healthy) ideas for breakfast. I can't come up with anything that isn't granola bars or something similar which is what I normally eat while I'm camping. Does anyone have any ideas or recipes that are easy to cook over a campfire? I plan on…

That seemed reasonable to me. When I came on here to log my exercise it said I had burned almost double that - 721. Why is there such…

Dinner Time
After a 10 hour shift at work and 2 hours spent sitting in my Nutrition class I didn't have time to make much of a healthy dinner. I didn't feel like a salad or a TV dinner tonight so I cooked one of those Bird's Eye Viola meals that all you do is dump in a skillet and heat up. I still had some extra cals that I saved up…
