Even the pickiest eater in any family loves macaroni and cheese. Whether you make it with creamy goat cheese and flavorful spices or good old-fashioned cheddar and milk, mac and cheese is a fun dinner treat that unites the family around the table. These macaroni recipes offer a variety of different takes on the beloved pasta dish.

Baked Macaroni and Cheese [Food Network]
With a consistency that’s more like a casserole than a pasta, Alton Brown's awesome baked macaroni and cheese recipe is ideal as either a hearty dinner side or a decadent main course. Sharp cheddar gives it the cheesy flavor that you love, but bay leaf and paprika add a sophisticated bit of spice to take it to the next level.

Cinema Center is perhaps, by modern standards, a bit behind the times. It only has three screens, and the auditoriums aren't necessarily outfitted with the massive cushy seats and crystal-clear sound system to which you may be accustomed. But for its regulars, these are the exact reasons why Cinema Center is so special.

The movie theater's old school vibe is all part of the charm, according to those who catch a flick here often. Despite its vintage aesthetic, the theater does screen first-run movies in its three auditoriums, so you'll be able to catch the latest blockbuster at a much more affordable price than a big megaplex. Plus, the concessions stand has all the classic snacks necessary to get you through the movie, from popcorn to Reese's Pieces. Wash down your sweet and salty feast with a Pepsi or bottled water while you enjoy the show.

Did you know that there are many affordable stores that sell furniture and decorations made specifically for apartment dwellers? Here are two websites to shop for apartment-friendly decor items!

Ikea
Ikea is everyone’s favorite one-stop apartment shop, beloved for its hip, modern aesthetic and impressively low prices. Here you’ll find everything from the perfect trundle bed to an artistic temporary light fixture that won’t jeopardize your security deposit, as well as all of the rugs, photo frames, and plants in between. Ikea also carries a wide variety of space-saving solutions for small spaces, which will help you to organize your space and keep it free of clutter.

West Elm
If your budget is slightly higher, West Elm is an equally stylish website with a bit higher quality selection of apartment decor items. Midcentury modern-inspired sofas and end tables are comfortable and compact enough for an oddly shaped apartment living room, while the wide selection of elaborate bedding, curtains, and rugs add a splash of color and texture to a cookie cutter living space. West Elm also offers a wide assortment of kitchen wares that can maximize space any kitchen.
