How to Get a Successful Driver’s License Photo:

Once you are old enough to get your driver’s license photo taken, the preparation is essential. Take a look at these tips to take the best photo ever!


Do not wear white, it tends to make people look sickly under the lighting at the DMV.

Avoid wearing t- shirts with slogans, plain shirts with soft colors such as blue, green, and pink tend to be the best.

If you are getting your photo taken during allergy season or if you have a cold, use eye drops and make sure your eyes wide open.

Keep your hair neat and normal, today is not the day to try out a fancy hair do or new hair color.

Ladies, know how to wear your makeup. Too much eye shadow tends to make your eyes disappear and too little makes you look like a zombie. Practice makes perfect!

Like we said before, practice makes perfect! It may seem silly to practice smiling in the mirror but it can only benefit you in the end.

Be on time for your appointment and stay patient. DMV’s are notoriously slow, but the wait will be worth a great picture!

What Does the Color of Your Ride Say About You?

Red: Outgoing and High Energy
There’s something about the color red is impossible to ignore.  If your car is sporting this paint job, you are likely quick-witted, bold, and dynamic.  You think on your feet and tend to make snap decisions that somehow always work out.  If you like to be center stage with all eyes on you, red is the perfect shade for you.

Black: Classic and Elegant
Black is truly a timeless color. Not only is it simple and versatile, it is an unmistakable symbol of power. If you are the owner of a black Cadillac, you probably have very classy taste in clothing and appreciate the finer things in life.  You have an impressive talent for knowing the appropriate time to speak your mind.

Blue: Trustworthy, Calm, and Patient
Much like the ocean on a bright sunny day, blue car owners tend to be cool and calm.  If your ride dons this color, you are a humanitarian.  People describe you as trustworthy, sensitive, and caring. When you make friends, they are lifelong connections.

White: Direct, Organized, and Clean
Generally, if you drive a white vehicle you probably insist upon keeping your office space, home, and vehicle in pristine condition. White isn’t able to camouflage very much when it comes to mud and dust, so you definitely know the value of caring for your things.  Some might describe you as being high-maintenance.  We’d describe you as selective. :)

No-Bake Mother's Day Breakfast Idea

Let's face it; Some of us aren't quite as good in the kitchen as mom. This Mother's Day, surprise her with an easy no-bake breakfast! A Bagel Bite Flower is the perfect morning meal. Keep reading to learn how to make this idea come to life.

What you'll need:

-Mascarpone cheese

-Vanilla extract

-Honey

-Plain bagel

-Sliced strawberries

-Pineapple chunk

Directions:

1. Stir the mascarpone cheese, vanilla extract, and honey together.
2. Rinse and slice the strawberries.
3. Open the bagel and spread the mascarpone cheese mix on the inside of both halves of the bagel.
4. Lay the strawberries on one side to create strawberry flowers pedals.
5. Close the bagel and a pineapple into the center of the bagel.

You can create your own flower holder by purchasing some sort of base (you can get creative with this), foam, a tall cake pop or candy stick, tissue paper or gift wrap filler, and a permanent marker.

1. Fill your base with a craft foam that can be found in the floral section of any craft department or store.
2. Cover the foam with tissue paper or gift wrap filler.
3. Insert the cake pop stick into the foam so it's sticking out from the base.
4. Insert the uncovered portion of the stick into the bagel and be certain to skew into the pineapple center. This helps to hold everything together.
5. Add a message or decor to the base with marker to personalize it for mom.
6. Serve mom her Bagel Bite Flower!
