Inside Nutritionist Kimberly Snyder's Fridge

Behind Closed Doors: Nutritionist Kimberly Snyder's Fridge

She Gives Us a Tour (and Lots of Tips)

It’s nothing to laugh about: Doritos addictions are real. One whiff of nacho cheesiness and, suddenly, you’re at four (snack) packs a day.

Time for an intervention. In today’s video, nutritionist Kimberly Snyder gives us something to aspire to by showing us what’s in her home fridge — and why. Since she specializes in beautifying foods, each item she stocks (from kale to almonds) has qualities that improve hair and/or skin.

Plus, she reveals her recipes for a Greek-inspired millet salad and her favorite protein smoothie, as well as instructions for what she calls “energy in a spoon.”

We’re thanking our lucky stars for Snyder, who works with too many celebs to name, because the how-tos and advice in her book, The Beauty Detox Solution, have done more for our skin than pricey face creams.

She’s way cooler than Cool Ranch.

The Beauty Detox Solution is available online at amazon.com, $11. For more nutrition tips, recipes, and information on Snyder, go to kimberlysnyder.net.

SuChin Pak's 5 Questions: Kimberly Snyder

The nutritionist talks to us about food

Juices or shakes? Carbs or Atkins? Stevia or agave? When it comes to healthy eating, sometimes it’s just easier to say, “Pass the Oreos.”

In today’s 5 Questions with SuChin Pak, nutritionist Kimberly Snyder answers our burning foodie FAQs, from her feelings on juice cleanses to the items she would add and subtract from everyone’s diets.

We took advantage of Snyder’s know-how (her latest book, The Beauty Detox Foods, came out yesterday) and snagged a hair-thickening Caesar salad recipe and a roundup of foods that combat cellulite, too.

It’s evident the health guru practices what she preaches: She’s flawless in person.

We’re lucky she sandwiched us in.

The Beauty Detox Foods is available at amazon.com, $11. For more about Snyder, go to kimberlysnyder.net and check out her five beauty must-haves.

In the Kitchen: Rhubarb Fool with Ginger Sabayon

Chef Karen Hatfield's easy recipe

We like to fashion our lives after the characters on Downton Abbey (minus getting jilted at the altar, going to war, death during childbirth, and that weird Mr. Pamuk scenario).

The first step: baking a rhubarb fool (a dessert resembling a trifle) like a Brit. In today’s video, chef Karen Hatfield (from L.A.’s The Sycamore Kitchen and Hatfield’s) shows us how to make a version with ginger sabayon.

Not only is it bloody simple, you can substitute any kind of berry if rhubarb isn’t your thing.

Just send Daisy to pick some up.

For more information on Hatfield’s restaurants, go to hatfieldsrestaurant.com or thesycamorekitchen.com. Still hungry? Check out Daniel Boulud’s burger, Sam Talbot’s fish tacos, and Eddie Huang’s pork bao.

Inside Story: Lindsay Segal's Chicago Apartment

The co-founder of Luxury Garage Sale gives us a tour

Taylor Swift makes snow globes. Ryan Gosling knits.

We love when well-heeled people embrace their idiosyncrasies.

So we can’t get enough of Lindsay Segal, co-owner of Luxury Garage Sale (a Chicago-based upscale consignment service) and avid collector of robots, vintage plates, porcelain animals, and costume jewelry. In today’s Inside Story, she gives us a peek into her light-filled West Loop apartment.

It’s no surprise she’s accrued so many treasures — combing antique stores and estate sales is literally her job. The fact that most of her jewelry costs less than $100 is a testament to her keen eye for design.

This Segal’s a rare bird.

To shop Luxury Garage Sale, go to luxurygaragesale.com. For more Inside Stories, check out designer Lela Rose’s dream loft, actress/writer Mindy Kaling’s closet, and designer Heidi Merrick’s Silver Lake bungalow.

SuChin Pak's 5 Questions: Coco Rocha

Her first kiss, thoughts on modeling, and "The Face"

Since it’s almost V-Day, we have a confession: We’ve had a crush on model Coco Rocha ever since she did an Irish jig down the catwalk at John Paul Gaultier in 2007.

Now that the 24-year-old is a mentor (alongside Naomi Campbell and Karolina Kurkova) on Oxygen’s new model competition show, The Face, we thought it time to act. She’s the subject of our first-ever Five Questions with SuChin Pak video series.

From her first kiss (the answer to which will shock you) to what she’d be doing if she weren’t modeling, Rocha gets deep for our chief correspondent. And, yes, she’s as pretty and porcelain looking in person as on TV.

Our feelings only grow stronger.

The Face premieres tomorrow night at 9 p.m. EST. For more information, go to the-face.oxygen.com. Want more Pak? Here are her current obsessions.

Our woman about town, SuChin Pak, likes things. Lots of things. And in this new series, she’s showcasing three of them each week. They could range from a YouTube video on foot massage (that’s right) to her favorite outfit at that moment. Check back every Tuesday for a new video.

Eddie Huang Makes Bao (and Conversation)

You can't really do what the Baohaus chef does at home

Usually, when we film an In the Kitchen video, the purpose is to teach viewers to re-create a recipe.

But during our shoot with Eddie Huang, chef at Baohaus in Manhattan, five minutes into making his pork bao he said, “Honestly, people can’t do this. If you want to do that, try Momofuku.”

Which sums up what drew us to Huang in the first place: His memoir, Fresh Off the Boat, out now. Huang, whose parents are Taiwanese, grew up in Orlando, moved to NYC, and became a lawyer, a hustler, a stand-up, and a restaurateur.

The book’s appeal is Huang’s honest, funny description of his experience growing up Asian-American, and finding both solace and strife in his Chinese heritage. We promise it’s like nothing you’ve ever read.

Like his baos, he’s inimitable.

Fresh Off the Boat is available at amazon.com, $14.

Inside Story: Heather Crosby's Fridge

The plant-based chef shows us what she eats

Your fridge is kind of like a graveyard: smelly and riddled with ghosts of meals past.

Resuscitate it (and your well-being) with today’s video: a peek into plant-based expert Heather Crosby’s fridge.

When not creating healthy recipes for her website, YumUniverse, Crosby can be found planting, sprouting, and engaging in otherwise enviable activities.

What she stores in the old icebox? Plenty of kale and homemade almond milk, to start.

It’s incentive enough to change your habits.

So you can R.I.P.

Inside Story: Danielle DuBoise and Whitney Tingle's Vitamin Cabinet

The Sakara Life founders show us their supplements

You drink green juices and eat kale salads. And then pizza, beer, and Ben & Jerry’s take you out in one fell swoop.

For those days when you don’t eat like a glowing goddess, you need a little extra nutrition. In this Inside Story, we explore the vitamin cabinet of Whitney Tingle and Danielle DuBoise, founders of Sakara Life organic meal delivery service in New York.

Though the ladies maintain vitamins are best absorbed from food, they still recommend a magnesium supplement to calm you down, a natural anti-inflammatory, and a “life-changing” probiotic. Plus, they share a mouthwash they’re newly obsessed with.

Because nobody’s perfect.

Inside Story: Gabriela Perezutti's Home

The Candela designer gives us a glimpse into her world

There’s no place like home for the holidays. Unless it’s someone else’s massive Manhattan townhouse, replete with a huge Christmas tree and 4-year-old twins singing “Jingle Bells.” (Yeah, we’ll take that.)

It belongs to Candela designer Gabriela Perezutti. In today’s Inside Story, she gives us a tour of the space she shares with husband Austin Hearst and daughters Olivia and Mia.

The house is currently decorated for the season, but evidence of Perezutti’s upbringing on a cattle ranch in Uruguay remains. We especially love the black and white photos of her mom on horseback.

They make us happy in a million ways.

10 Last-Minute Halloween Costumes

Disguises you can make using stuff around the house

Before we bring you today’s regularly scheduled content, we want to mention our thoughts are with all those affected by Hurricane Sandy. To make a financial donation to help with disaster relief, go to redcross.org.

The appeal of dressing up as Honey Boo Boo tomorrow night is obvious (but you’d have to eat Cheetos the entire time to be realistic).

To get the necessary props, you’d need to elbow through the nightmarish Halloween store crowds and spend a Benjamin on wigs and boas.

Instead we’ve assembled ten costumes you can make with stuff around the house — from Fifty Shades of Grey and Ermahgerd Gersberms to something we’re calling “Gingham Style.”

None of them requires you to chug go-go juice (sorry).

But you’ll still be the queeeeeeeen.

Check out our videos from Halloweens past to see how to dress up like Shark Week or a Kraft Single (yeah, that’s right).

Uggie teaches us what we need to know

There are celebs, and there are celebs.

In today’s video, we meet up with our favorite member of the latter: Uggie, a.k.a. star of The Artist, who takes time out of his busy A-lister schedule to show us how to do everything.

From spicing up your marriage to avoiding your landlord, he’s been there, done that. For further proof, check out his eponymous new autobiography (that’s right), Uggie.

And to answer your questions: Is he humble despite his millions? Yes. Is he shorter in person? Maybe just a little. Is he really a toddler dressed in a canine costume?

We didn’t get that kind of access.

Uggie is available at amazon.com, $10. For more gratuitous animal footage, check out our videos on turning your dog into a painter and giving a canine massage.

On the Couch: Rachel Brown Performs at DailyCandy

The singer/songwriter plays "Bumblebee" off her debut album

The last thing we taught ourselves was the “Gangnam Style” dance. Someone thought it was the MC Hammer (so you can imagine how good it was).

New Yorker Rachel Brown, on the other hand, taught herself to sing and play guitar during her junior year at Harvard. Now three years later, Wyclef regularly joins her onstage and she’s opened for John Legend.

For today’s video, we invited her to our office to perform the cheerful “Bumblebee,” accompanied by a six-person band (before you ask, that crazy thing is called a kora).

The hype is justified. Notice she’s even picked up the ukulele.

Can’t touch that.

Brown’s debut album, Building Castles, is available at itunes.com. To see more performances, check out our sit-downs with Christina Courtin, Karen Elson, Freelance Whales, and Eliza Doolittle.
