💦 Meet Ludacris: The Splash Pad Superstar

When he’s not showing off his cannonball skills, Luda’s happy to flop in the grass, roll in the shade, and convince strangers to become instant besties. Social butterfly? Check. Professional silly goose? Double check.

Adopt Ludacris and you’ll also score a FREE 5 week Bark to Basics training scholarship (because even party animals need a little structure). He’ll master loose leash walks, door manners, and obedience, aka he’ll learn how to sit before chasing the hose water.

At 7 years young, Luda’s the perfect mix of playful energy and chill cuddle buddy. He’s available for foster or fee waived adoption, so basically, you’ve run out of excuses.

📢 Come meet this splash king today!

We’ve got rats strutting the runway, cowboy boots staging a stylish coup, and at least three weddings to dress for before Sunday brunch.

• Rats at Fashion Week?! Apparently, rodents are literally having a moment in Copenhagen. Plot twist: they serve runway better than we do in heels.

• “And Just Like That”… it’s over. Again. Time to retire the cosmos and questionable dating decisions (or not).

• Cowboy boots aren’t going anywhere. In fact, they might be following you. Pair 'em with a sundress or just wear them to Trader Joe’s—you’ll still look iconic.

• Perfectionism is canceled. If your to-do list has its own to-do list, this one's for you. Chill. No one notices the napkin folds.

• Wedding season’s here. Whether you're a guest, bridesmaid, or showing up for the open bar, we've got some fashion advice to keep you from blending in with the tablecloths.

🍝 Takeout Who? America’s Back in the Kitchen (And No One’s Mad About It)

Turns out, cooking at home is the new hot date and not just because you’re ghosting DoorDash. According to a HelloFresh report, 93% of adults plan to cook just as much, if not more, this year. Why? Well… therapy’s expensive, groceries are slightly less so, and posting your pasta night on Instagram is practically self-care.

But don’t get it twisted, this ain’t your dad’s meatloaf.
We’re talking AI-generated shopping lists, gourmet-ish Taco Tuesdays, and stress relief that doesn’t involve a wine subscription (okay… maybe one glass). Over 70% say cooking chills them out more than doomscrolling ever could.

Of course, not everything’s picture perfect. Picky eaters, $9 eggs, and that air fryer collecting dust like it’s a time capsule? Still happening. But even though 64% of us have wanted to quit dinner forever, we keep showing up with a  meal kit in one hand and a TikTok recipe in the other.

Bottom line? Cooking isn’t just survival, it’s how we’re bonding, flexing, and pretending we have our lives together.

Now hand me that wooden spoon. Chef hat optional. Apron sass required.

💁‍♀️ Hot Tips to Not Melt:

• Drink water like it’s gossip, constantly.

• Errands before 9AM or risk becoming sidewalk jerky.

• Skip the oven, cook your dinner in the mailbox.

• And wear a hat. No one looks cute sunburned, sweetie.

🏙️ Local Tips for Cool Relief

• Downtown Summerlin shoppers: Beat the heat with early trips, the A/C game here is strong.

• Fitness plans postponed? Outdoor classes like Fitness on The Lawn may shift indoor or cancel. Check local updates.

• Power flickers? Charge your phone early and keep cool zones mapped out. Always check NV Energy alerts if needed.
