GOOP

Gwyneth Paltrow's GOOP has amused me since its inception. You can learn to be just like Gwyneth and "nourish the inner aspect." Under the category "MAKE," you can learn to cook like Gwyneth. She sweetens food her recipes, not with that dull, old, standby sugar. So Passé! The idea of it causes her to "cringe." Instead, Gwyneth uses agave syrup. My favorite part is the dress up Gwennie pictures titled "GET".

Here's an example:

Traveler IQ Challenge

I found a new game to play obsessively called Traveler IQ Challenge at Travel Pod, a site for Travel Blogs. I've been playing the World challenge and can reach level 12. There are other challenges for different regions and continents, as well as flags, capitals and photos. You can have fun and learn at the same time. ;)
