21 Air Fryer Holiday Recipes That Are Too Good Not To Try
Get the party started with some air-fried treats. …
If you don’t already have an air fryer, make sure somebody gifts you one this holiday season. It’s a necessary addition to your kitchen, and will save you so much time and energy while cooking up a storm. And if you already have one lying around, it’s time to start rounding up some air fryer holiday recipes to make for your next get-together—whether it be an intimate gathering or a huge family reunion. The good news? The options for entrees, sides, snacks and desserts (!) made in the air-fryer are endless, and each one is tastier than the next.
Here’s the thing about air fryer recipes: The food gets super crispy (like you’ve deep-fried it) but the machine uses hot air instead of hot oil. Not only does this make all your favorite fried recipes healthier, but it also requires less clean-up than deep frying. And frankly, who wants to deal with kitchen clean-up when there are guests on their way over for a holiday bash? Not me.

Bobbi Althoff Claps Back, Shuts Down Rumors of Sleeping with Interview Guests
Bobbi Althoff is currently one of the biggest names in the podcast and media space. Her rapid rise to fame has been a bit polarizing, with some people not appreciating how quickly she has ascended the ranks. Despite this, Althoff remains a heavily discussed figure on social media, especially for her interviews with rappers. However, her success has unfortunately come with a wave of misogynistic accusations.
A common criticism Althoff faces is the baseless claim that she “slept her way to the top,” particularly after her interview with Drake. Even Ryan Garcia perpetuated this erroneous rumor. Previously, Althoff had not addressed these trolls, but on Wednesday, she decided to put a hater in their place. According to TMZ, Althoff took to her Instagram to call out the false accusations.
In her Instagram story, Althoff made it clear that she does not sleep around and has never slept with any of her interview guests. She expressed frustration over the constant accusations whenever she posts about interviewing a man. Additionally, she addressed rumors about her personal life, stating that social media only shows what she allows it to. With this, Althoff aimed to silence the rumors once and for all.
What do you think of Bobbi Althoff’s response? Do you believe this will put an end to such comments, or will the ignorance persist? Share your thoughts in the comments below. For more updates on your favorite artists and their upcoming projects, stay tuned to Honk Magazine.

Lori Harvey Rocks Leopard Bikini and Cowgirl Hat, Ignites Social Media Frenzy
Lori Harvey may be keeping her dating endeavors under wraps these days, but fortunately for fans, the same doesn’t apply to her beach-ready bod. Recently, the 27-year-old model took to her Instagram Story to share a fun clip of herself vibing to Tyla with a couple of friends. She stunned in a tiny leopard print bikini, which she paired with a straw hat and some eye-catching gold jewelry.
Hollywood Unlocked shared the fun clip on Instagram earlier today, and as expected, their comments section is now flooded with fans sharing their takes. While most are simply thirsting over Harvey’s summery look and snatched figure, others can’t wait to hear more about her love life, particularly after her recent Parisian rendezvous with Luka Sabbat.
She and the Grownish actor were spotted enjoying lunch at a local hotspot last month, and of course, dating rumors were soon to follow. Harvey didn’t waste any time shutting them down, however, making it clear that the two of them are nothing more than friends. “Aht! Aht! Me and Luka have been friends for years, let’s not start this narrative,” she wrote at the time. It appears as though these days, she’s enjoying her time as a single gal, at least in the public eye. Fans can’t blame her for it either, though they are anxious as ever to see who she’ll pop out with following her split from Damson Idris.
Either way, she looks to be living her best life and making the most of her summer, and her supporters are certainly here for it. What do you think of Lori Harvey living her best life in a leopard print bikini? What about fans badgering her for more details about her love life? Share your thoughts in the comments section down below, and keep an eye on Honk Magazine for more updates.
