FRECKLES' PICK - WINNER
Today Is Free Cone Day At Haagen Dazs
Looking for a reason to smile today? Itâs Free Cone Day at HĂ€agen-Dazs shops! So stop in and grab a scoop on the house at your local store. Itâs only a âkiddie scoopâ but who cares, itâs free and itâs ice cream â whatâs not to love!?
They let you choose your ice cream or sorbet and you can get it in a cup, sugar cone or cake cone. The free scoops are being offered from 4pm until 8pm today. And you can find your local shop with the HĂ€agen-Dazs store locator.
But Free Cone Day isnât just about making customers happy. Itâs also supposed to spread awareness about the disappearing honeybee population. So the ice cream company is encouraging us to plant native, bee-friendly wildflowers in their towns. Theyâre not giving the seeds away themselves, but theyâll be asking customers to check out native plants using The Xerces Society website. And thatâs a small price to pay for a free cone!

KRISTEN'S PICK
MORE AND MORE GUYS ARE HOOKING UP WITH COUGARS
Over the weekend, France elected a new president â 39-year-old Emmanuel Macron. And, one fun fact about this guy ⊠heâs married to a 64-year-old.
Scientists have seen this younger-man-older-woman trend gain momentum through the years, especially since more and more families have been pulling in double incomes.
Because women have more economic power, younger guys are looking for women who either make as much money as they do or more, and have similar or higher levels of education.
So while it still might look weird to many people, itâs definitely more common than ever. (New York Times)
