For New Yorkers, summer means sunny days in the park, the return of shorts, streetside mango vendors, and humidity - lots of it. I grew up in Miami, which is essentially the same as growing up inside a sauna. My adolescence was basically made up of one frizzy-haired disaster after the other. I've since learned that on humid days, the best thing to do is throw all your hair up.

So, while I love my topknot as much as the next girl, I thought I'd mix things up a bit and try out these three super chic updos. They'll keep your hair off your neck and stay sleek even in the city's 90% humidity. Bring it on, NYC.

Read carefully because your culinary repertoire is about to expand exponentially. You may think that pesto is a one-herb sort of spread, that it made a vow to basil and has been faithfully committed ever since, but we're here to tell you to forget what you know: Pesto can be made out of practically any vegetable or herb that's green and flavorful. Arugula? You bet. Mint? Check. Garlic scapes? Yes, please.
And if your mind isn't spinning already, just think: you can add whatever nuts, oils, and cheeses you'd like (or leave out the cheese for a vegan alternative). Now that you know pesto's potential, it's time to get creative. Once you've found your favorite combination, toss it with pasta, spread it on sandwiches, or use it as a dip for (even more) vegetables.

Reading Amanda Bynes' Twitter feed is like watching bad reality TV. We shouldn't look, but we can't help ourselves. In the throes of what can only be described as a meltdown, you can't help but wonder who is looking out for her, and when will she get help. This is the woman who in recent months has called both Miley Cyrus and Drake 'ugly,' and said Chris Brown assaulted Rihanna because she wasn't pretty enough - who has also been arrested for allegedly throwing a bong out her window. As she is evicted from her New York apartment and her father hopes to stage an intervention, it is interesting to look back at the child stars who have walked this tragic line before her. Between the headlines and the gossip, underneath the scandal and the outrage, there are lessons to be learned and lives to be supported. Click through for 7 child stars who went off the deep end! -By Suzanne Cowie

My husband and I are not bedtime cuddlers. In fact, we are the furthest possible thing from cuddlers-neither of us can fall asleep until we are as far away from each other, practically falling off the edge of the massive king-size bed we purchased after the birth of our third child. I sleep contently in a swath of blankets piled around me like a cocoon and occasionally reach out to my husband in the middle of the night…To smack him when he snores. Admittedly, sometimes I get a little worried that our separate shenanigans at nighttime are abnormal. Is this how other couples sleep? What does it mean that we can't stand to touch each other at night? To find out, I did a little investigating on the types of couples' sleeping positions and what they say about their relationships. Click through for 7 ways your sleeping position is affecting your relationship! -By Chaunie Brusie

- 7 hours ago | CommentsI've been conducting a contest on Mommy Shorts called The Search for the Most Epic Head of Baby Hair. There have been over 500 submissions of some of the most ridiculous heads of hair you've ever seen. Ridiculous even if they weren't ON A BABY! I took the Top 100 and named their hairstyles- everything from The Rachel to The Dinosaur to The Danny Devito. Currently, I've got 12 finalists vying to win. The finalists all have one thing in common- a HUGE HEAD OF HAIR. But there were many entries, that while not exactly EPIC, were still really funny. Even if they are not up for the win. Here are 7 of my picks for the funniest heads of hair entered into the Mommy Shorts Epic Baby Hair contest. - By Ilana Whiles
