I have a confession to make – I’m not much of a morning person. It’s not that I like to sleep late, (typically I can’t stay in bed later than 8 a.m. and most days I’m up by 7) but I definitely am a creature of the sun, and if it isn’t up then neither should I be. At least that’s my rationale...

• You look like you’re going to pop!
• I’ve lost my [activity] buddy!

These seemed like good examples but I have to imagine there are much more. So tell us. Adventuresome women, what should you not say to a pregnant lady?

The National Parks Conservation Association created a post on Buzzfeed that caught out attention: 17 Posters That Will Inspire You To See America. We were inspired.

Some of these posters, created in 1938 to 1941 for the National Park Service, are on display in the Department of the Interior through the Spring of 2015. If you’re in Washington, D.C., check it out here.

2. It’s a much cheaper way to get organic meat than Whole Foods.

3. All of your friends think that you’re a real-life Katniss, which reminds them why it’s in their best interest to stay on your good side.

4. It opens a whole new realm of possible comebacks to “make me a sandwich.”
