FitSugar — Fri, 31 Aug 2007 13:30:00 PDT

For most of us, Labor Day weekend means a lot of fun and a lot of barbecue. Unfortunately a lot of barbecue could mean a lot of unhealthy eating so check out the links below for making this Labor Day weekend as healthy as you want.

First and foremost, here are some tips on grilling safe for a healthy bbq.

Spice (and lighten) up the burger with this recipe for South Beach Diet Chimichurri Burgers -- My mouth's already watering. Oh, and since you're being healthy, you might as well put it on a whole grain bun.

You know I've broken down your favorite condiments.

...Add a side of grilled veggies and you're good to go.

Not doing the grilling? Here are some tips on cutting calories if you're attending a barbecue.

Of course you'll want some fun ways to get everyone moving. (I'm not going to lie, the link also contains some nice pics of Matthew McConaughey too).

Jodie Foster's House For Sale

Shelterpop — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 04:00:05 PDT

Start your week off right -- with a cup of coffee and a virtual tour of our celebrity home of the day. Today: Jodie Foster lets us in.

Actress Jodie Foster just put her Beverly Hills house on the market. Sitting on just under an acre of land, the house has seven bedrooms and eight bathrooms. The cost? $9.975 million. The home was built in 1949, but from what we see, it has held up just fine.

Thanks to our friends at Realtor.com, we have some photos from around the exterior of Foster's Cape Cod-style home.

The brick steps and terracotta pots are flanked by lush greenery -- that even sneaks onto the stairs themselves. It all leads you to the front patio. Don't the climbing vines and flowers make the house look so welcoming and full? And who knew the asymmetrical florals could pack such an impact?

This home is a little large to be called a cottage, but that's the feel we get from these photos. Looking through the bushes, we want to skip -- yes, skip -- down the stone path. It's like we just discovered a secret garden. The vines growing up the back of the house are just as lush and kept as the front.

And like every true celebrity home, Foster's house has a stunning pool. The perfect setting for large barbecues or private afternoons, this is a great space to relax and have a good time.
