Get ready to pretend you’re in the middle of Bravo’s Watch What Happens! LIVE because today’s post is going to wrap up all the fun, craziness and ~~cat fights~~ science stuff that went down in January!

Ok, so maybe Prayers and Apples doesn’t have as much drama as The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (seriously, what is wrong with Brandi?! leave Adrienne alone!!) but I got this little analogy stuck in my head, so let’s just roll with it!

The One Where Ross and Rachel…

(Insert studio audience applause!) Alright, it’s time to play our first game! Now, it’s not going to be as fun as the Watch What Happens! LIVE drinking games (unless you’re reading this at work and your boss is ok with you taking a shot every time you read the word “science” – in which case, you’re going to have an awesome day no matter what!), but it is still a game – and I’m trying really hard to stretch this gimmick out – so you should definitely play along!

See, even Neil Patrick Harris is getting in on the fun!

Here’s how it works:

There’s ten questions about the articles posted in January. You don’t have to enter your email, you don’t have to type your name – all you have to do is click the right answer! And if you get them all right, NeNe Leakes will fly you out to the set of The New Normal!

Ok, maybe that part’s not going to happen. (But could they possibly plug that show any more on The Real Housewives of Atlanta?!)

Basically: there’s not any big grand prize – but you can post your scores in the comment section below! (HINT HINT!)

So what are you waiting for?! It’s time to play…

Congratulations - you have completed The One Where... January '13 Edition!. You scored %%SCORE%% out of %%TOTAL%%. If Andy Cohen was here, he would say: %%RATING%%

Your answers are highlighted below.

Question 1

THE ONE WHERE... I don't know how to blog. We'll start out with an easy one: When people talk about holistic approaches to health, you hear a lot about cures that “just work.” No one really talks about the facts. Why?

A	Because the facts don't exist.
B	Because there's so many old wives tales, it's hard to keep the real stuff straight!
C	Because none of this is real and you just made this blog up for something to do. Hint: Did you seriously just pick this? LOL :)

Question 1 Explanation:

I'm really hoping you got this one right! LOL :)

Question 2

THE ONE WHERE... Exercise is annoying but it increases energy. Cumulative evidence shows that chronic exercise programs are associated with an increase in feelings of energy and a decrease in feelings of fatigue that are large enough to be clinically important. So if exercise increases energy, how are we supposed to get enough energy to exercise?

A	Start working out an hour a day, seven days a week so you can get as much energy as possible. Hint: Everything in moderation!
B	Drink a Red Bull. Hint: Really, dude?
C	Two steps forward, one step back. For every two little steps you take with exercise, you get one little boost of energy. Start with a 15min walk!
D	Exercise whenever you feel like it - don't push yourself, it'll just waste energy. Hint: If you don't push yourself at all, nothing will ever happen!

Question 2 Explanation:

Next one's a little harder...

Question 3

THE ONE WHERE... Food increases energy. Your body’s not getting anything done without magnesium. That’s why all of those lists you find when you Google, “foods that increase energy” include magnesium-rich foods. Which food has a lot of magnesium?

A	Pineapple
B	Spinach
C	Blueberries Hint: What other ingredient do I put in my favorite blueberry smoothie?

Question 3 Explanation:

Next one is about saving some money, huni!

Question 4

THE ONE WHERE... You learned how to start couponing and eating clean at the same time. Clean eating and couponing both require a lot of planning and strategizing. So, true or false: If something's on sale buy-one-get-one free, can you use two coupons (meaning: one on the free item)?

A	Yes
B	No Hint: Try the other answer ;) lol

Question 4 Explanation:

Ok, back to science stuff...

Question 5

THE ONE WHERE... Einstein talks. "Science without religion is lame. Religion without science is _______." Finish this quote from Albert Einstein.

A	lamer
B	foolish
C	blind
D	arrogant

Question 5 Explanation:

Getting a little tougher ;)

Question 6

THE ONE WHERE... I tried to cook things. This one's a freebie because the next question is a little hard. What's my secret Clean Eating Chicken Salad ingredient?

A	Water chestnuts
B	Raisins
C	Tomatoes
D	Mayonnaise Hint: What's the point of a clean eating recipe if you're going to add mayo?! lol :)

Question 6 Explanation:

Ok get ready...

A	15
B	20
C	25
D	30

Question 7 Explanation:

Question 8

THE ONE WHERE... Religion acts a buffer for high risk depression. A review of 444 quantitative research studies, spanning 50 years, found that religious/spiritual involvement lessened the incidence of depression and/or reduced depression severity in over ____ of the studies. Fill in the blank.

A	60%
B	40% Hint: It's more impressive than this!
C	70%
D	80%

Question 8 Explanation:

Almost done!

Question 9

THE ONE WHERE... We learned a lot of religion statistics. A 2012 study followed 114 adult offspring of depressed and non-depressed parents over the course of 20 years (religious feelings were assessed at the 10-year mark). Those at high risk of developing depression (due to prenatal depression), who indicated at the beginning that religion/spirituality was highly important to them, were ____ less likely to have major depression. Fill in the blank.

A	90% Hint: Really impressive, right?!
B	50% Hint: It's a lot cooler than this number!
C	80%
D	75%

Question 9 Explanation:

Here comes the last question!
