Some afternoon delight? Indulging in a quickie... blog post that is. I recently came across this post on buzzfeed that made me literally LOL. 30 signs you're almost 30 remains relevant through your thirties. Not much I can disagree with on this list. Well played, buzzfeed. Well played.

Shamelessly borrowing the dairy association's tagline because it is WAAAAY more appropriate for yoga. For real. Yoga, is done, in some way, shape or form by all. Everything needs a good stretch now and again. Yoga just takes it to a whole other level. But I digress. And I actually enjoy a cold glass of milk every now and again (not milk hating by any means).
