Last week, I made toasted pumpkin seeds for the first time ever, following a two-step boil-and-bake method. They were so crispy and savory, I couldn't believe I'd never done it before, and was already dreaming of making them again. How about you?

If I'm going to work out, I like to do things properly and dress for the occasion. This means when I join a gym, I also indulge in a new wardrobe of practical (yet stylish) clothing. This got me thinking, do you have a favourite sportswear brand?

As I've been discussing The X Factor with you on Twitter over the past few weeks, I've noticed there's two things that always get people talking.

Exciting — we saw Angelina Jolie filming it, but now the first trailer for Salt has been released! She plays Evelyn Salt, a CIA officer who is accused by a defector of being a Russian spy, and has to go on the run and try to clear her name. The film's not out until summer 2010, but I'd love to know if you think you'll see it, or skip it!

Perms get such a bad rap just because grandmas love them and they were a staple ingredient of '80s hair. Despite the fact that I know how useful they can be, and how many different kinds of perms there are, I might almost be hesitant to tell people if I got one, just for fear that they'd start laughing before I could explain.

After reviewing the new reference book A Field Guide to Candy, I found myself looking back on all the fun candies we've made, from candied orange peel to peanut brittle to peppermint bark. It left me wondering if you ever tried to make your own candy.

I don't know whether to feel sorry for or insanely jealous of Bee Schafer. The daughter of Anna Wintour has a tough act to follow, but at the same time it can't hurt to have a Mother with an impressive wardrobe to dip in to every now and then! The Mother and daughter were photographed at the Landscape Show hosted by Dodie Kazanjian last week looking quite the stylish duo.
