As a nation huddles amongst their families in their living rooms tonight, heads in their anxious hands, waiting for Walter Winchell or Ryan Seacrest’s twitter to notify us of the condition of recently hospitalized Nicole Richie, we take pause to reflect on the sobering fragility of ... WAIT, WHAT? EGGO SHORTAGE? Yahoo Finance reports that Kellogg announced that it is rationing the Eggo line of goods “due to flooding and equipment problems” at two bakeries. Now you may be thinking how big just are these two bakeries if their overflowing commodes could simply halt production on the rubber stamps Kelloggs shills as waffles. And you would be right. (And adorably indignant.)

What's up with celebrity designers hawking pajamas this season? Just a few weeks ago, Kate Moss released word that her holiday collection for Topshop would include lingerie and PJs for the first time (perhaps partly as a result of her boyfriend, The Kills' Jamie Hince, always stealing hers and wearing them out). Included in the collection is a kimono-style short robe, which was among the first items to sell out, a bed jacket and teddy among other items fit for sleep.

Fresh off of giving birth to second child Sparrow, Nicole Richie is breathing life into a new designing endeavor: her first-ever clothing line (save for a capsule collection of maternity wear premiered earlier this year). The celebrity-turned-designer already has an accessories line and a clothing collection for expectant mothers -- House of Harlow 1960 and Nicole for a Pea in the Pod, respectively -- under her belt. But, now comes the launch of Winter Kate, a new line of women's wear with bed jackets as a staple and everything infused with a Richie-approved bohemian sensibility.

When my BFFL broke up with her man in college, she first played the whole I'm fine game by posting inspirational Facebook updates. When she was past fine, she had to show she was really, really fine -- or as some might enunciate: fooo-iiiiiine. This was strategically done by taking those half-naked shots in the bathroom mirror, paired with other half-naked photos of her glowing at a club surrounded by other half-naked girls and maybe a few of her ex's pals just to be sure the ex would see them when the friends were inevitably tagged. Lo, the convenience of modern technology. So, what is a celebrity to do when the whole world is your Facebook, and you've just been dumped for the second time by your beau? Well, if you're Lindsay Lohan, you simultaneously prove you're fine, and you're fooo-iiiiiine by posting a super-hot topless shot in the bathroom mirror to your Twitter ... for Perez, me, and all the world to see.
