Blame it on the rain
Features

Here’s the thing: I don’t want rain to go away, and I don’t want it to come again another day. I can play just fine when it’s raining, in fact.
Weighty achievement
From fattest to fittest, OKC is a million pounds lighter, thanks in part to one man’s shedding of 200 of them.

When Oklahoma City landed on just about every “fattest” list imaginable, Mayor Mick Cornett did not sit idly by. He launched a million-pound challenge in 2007. Since then, the mayor has lost 38 pounds himself.

Music

If you’re listening to your favorite music, you’re likely in your happy place, too. It’s important to stay loyal to your roots.
Have an inkling
Features
Jenn Scott
Few things are more important in the world of style than the creation of your own personal look. A lot of thought goes into it.

Currently trending in the wine world is pairing your favorite vino with your favorite jams. Not the stuff you put on bread — the stuff you play loudly on your speakers.
Top it off
Features
Jenn Scott
The last bit of winter isn’t doing a very good job of being wintery. Sure, it might be a little rainy, but the recent 60- and 70-degree weather is enough to ignite excitement for the spring season of tailgating, followed by a summer of pool parties.
Pet project
Features
Jenn Scott
If you’ve ever seen the old Disney movie “The Ugly Dachshund,” which features a family of four doxies and a Great Dane, you understand my plight. If you haven’t seen it, view it in case you’re deciding whether to add an ornery, German-bred and alleged hunting dog, aka “weenie dog,” to the family.
The heat is on
Features
Jenn Scott
I recently tried my first hot yoga class at Yoga at Tiffany’s (9610 N May; 708-0564), and I think I’m hooked. Never in a million years had I thought I’d try it.

Super party
Features
Jenn Scott
Despite several efforts to generate some amount of care, I really have absolutely no interest in organized sports. That being said, I can always get behind a good party … even one centered around a pigskin. For an anti-sports type like myself, the Super Bowl is prime bonding and partying time.
Va-va-voom
A new juice joint brings tassels and fan dances to Bricktown.
Features
Jenn Scott
The ragtime piano number bounces off the ceiling and gets caught in the plush curtains before it has a chance to echo. All the while your old fashioned warms its way into your belly. The music cues, curtains open and a cheeky dancer onstage begins to shimmy.
