Drink
Spirits sales are down by 1.1% — with one exception. Tequila sales are up by 2.9%. As good an excuse as any for National Margarita Day today (and our favorite happy hour spots).
Eat
Are you heading to Chick-fil-A this weekend? You’re not alone. The restaurant is the top-rated fast food chain in Texas. Just don’t forget to show our local chicken spots some love, too — we recommend Rocky’s Hot Chicken Shack.
Pet
French Bulldogs are the most popular breed of dog in America, according to Visual Capitalist. Whether you’re a Frenchie fan or a Labrador lover, the Greenville Humane Society has plenty of adoptable pets worth your affection — including Java, a one-and-a-half-year-old Terrier + American Staffordshire that loves snuggles and kisses.

The lipstick that’s more like a phenomenon: Clinique’s Almost Lipstick in Black Honey. The sheer, glossy lipstick is designed to flatter everyone (and it’s only Clinique’s best-selling lipstick shade of all time).
I was lucky enough to see Prince at The Well (then the Bi-Lo Center) when he performed there in 2011. It’s the best concert I’ve ever seen. I love seeing how many incredible artists are coming to our city, and hope you are too.
