Much has been said about our first lady’s fashion sense, but right now I’m in the throes of major arm-envy—hers are sculpted, strong, and not overly bulky. Nicely toned biceps and triceps are what I like to call the “show-off” muscles, because you see results so quickly, which is highly motivating.

Pass The Butter, Please .

This is interesting . .

Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten turkeys. When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put all the money into the research wanted a payback so they put their heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back. It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of butter. How do you like it? They have come out with some clever new flavorings.
