Watch
Ads of the ages: From "Where's the beef?" to "I've fallen – and I can't get up!," RetroStatic.com tunes in the best, worst and forgotten among '80s and '90s-era commercials. Because, face it, life is pointless if you can't rediscover the joys of a 1986 Dippity-do hairstyling gel commercial.
Shop
Feed the world: Do your holiday shopping at the Hunger Site (www.thehungersite.com) and do more than just fill someone's stocking. The store offers a wide array of handmade, fair-trade gifts (jewelry, clothes, journals, etc.) as well as an opportunity to assist the needy. Supply meals for a Rwandan family ($40 a month), buy shoes for a schoolgirl in rural Africa ($14) or even cover an Afghan teacher's annual salary ($40,000).
Cook
Dish it up: The Steamy Kitchen blog (www.steamykitchen.com) by Hong Kong-born, Nebraska-raised Jaden Hair may be geared toward "fast and fresh" Asian cooking, but it offers many other treasures, too. A recipe for Rolo pretzel turtles, for example. Or how about some aged cheddar and Guinness fondue? Or perhaps the simple permission to "eat as much sugar as you want"? Yum.
