loveFinding The One isn't easy. Just ask every single woman on the planet. Men certainly aren't immune to that struggle. In fact, one man in Texas is so desperate to find love, he's willing to pay to get exactly what he wants. He is offering a $1,500 finder's fee to anyone who can hook him up with the girl of his dreams. He even created the website SleeplessInAustin.com to detail exactly what he's looking for. Problem is, some of his requirements are a bit outdated, if not bizarre.

First and foremost, wedding photographer Larry Busby wants a "woman of great quality." So what makes a woman of great quality?

"Thin or athletic build""No one over 130-pounds""Ages 21 to 41""White, Hispanic, or of European descent""I will not date any girl that has ever had a threesome or a large number of past sexual partners. I do not want a promiscuous slut.""I will not date a Black girl. I don’t care if she looks like Halle Berry""I do not believe that Whites & Blacs should mix races sexually and have kids together.""I would NEVER, EVER, EVER date a woman if I found out she had EVER been sexually active with a Black man."

Charming, isn't he? A lot of women would consider his rules a total turn-off. He requires a thin, athletic build, but as his website shows, he's certainly no David Backham.

Though, as annoying as this guy sounds, I have to give him credit for being honest about what he wants. If he's serious about finding a wife, why lie? Why pretend he is okay with characteristics that he's not? All too often, people hold back info or aren’t upfront when they are on the dating scene. The result is that you waste both your time and that of the other person. So while his requirements may seem silly or outdated to some, this way, both people know going in whether this has a chance of really working out.

What do you think of this guy's dating requirements?

kimchiLet me start by saying kimchi is for the brave. You've probably heard of it by now. Most people know kimchi as spicy, Korean-style fermented cabbage. But actually, kimchi can be made with all kinds of vegetables, like radish, cucumber, or even pumpkin. Now that kimchi has hit the mainstream, you'll see it topping everything from ramen to hot dogs. It adds a pungent heat to whatever you're eating. But did you also know it's mad healthy, too? You may not want to face another cold season without kimchi.

Kimchi is loaded with vitamins A, B, and C. But the real powerhouse is its healthy bacteria, called lactobacilli. Some studies show that the bacteria can help prevent yeast infections, ladies. It's also supposed to be good for your digestion. And many say that it's excellent for your immune system, thanks to both the bacteria and the chili. It's powerful stuff.

You can make kimchi yourself, but I'll warn you: It's famous for stinking up a kitchen. I'm sure there's a way to prepare and store it so your whole house doesn't smell like funky cabbage, but I've never been brave enough to try. Maybe you are? If so, here's how to make "easy" kimchi at home.

Now ... what to do with the stuff? Here are 11 things you can make with kimchi:

Hot dog. I'm serious, I top my dogs with kimchi all the time. It's great.Burger. As long as you're open to kimchi on hot dogs, you should try it on hamburgers.Ramen. The ultimate cold-fighting duo! Once you've already prepared your ramen, top with kimchi.Tacos. Extremely trendy right now. We also like kimchi quesadillas.Ruben sandwich. Use kimchi instead of sauerkraut, you rebel, you.Stir fry. Top a mild stir fry with kimchi to give it an extra kick.Eggs. Fried, omelette, or scrambled, kimchi is great on eggs.Summer rolls. Here's a recipe for kimchi summer rolls.Pancakes and waffles. I hear kimchi is a popular pancake topping in Hawaii. Maybe skip the maple syrup?Stew. There are SO MANY kimchi stew recipes out there. Here's a kimchi stew recipe from the Momofuku cookbook.Pizza. Yeah, people are doing that. I'm not sure they should (what's next, kimchi cronuts?), but maybe if you add it as a topping after baking, it works, who knows.
