Use a Smart Speaker to Track Nights With Your Newborn

Use a Smart Speaker to Track Nights With Your Newborn

What I hated about being woken up by my newborn in the middle of the night—aside from, you know, being woken up by my newborn in the middle of the night—was learning what time it was.

How to Support Someone You Love Through Infertility

About 10 percent of women have difficulty getting pregnant or staying pregnant, so chances are good that someone you love is facing or will face infertility.

You Don't Need Two Lids to Cut Cherry Tomatoes

You Don't Need Two Lids to Cut Cherry Tomatoes

Using two lids to slice cherry tomatoes in half is a classic hack. The lips of the lids stabilize the tomatoes, letting you run your knife through the little guys with ease. But I’m here to tell you that you don’t need two lids. You never did. You just need a cutting board and your hand.

You're Probably Overcooking Your Garlic

You're Probably Overcooking Your Garlic

Once upon a time, it became common practice to add onions and garlic to a hot pan at the same time. I think it had something to do with “letting flavors mingle,” but I’m not sure. Though they are both alliums, the two cook at dramatically different rates, and adding them together results in bitter, acrid bits of…

False login pages are a common method of phishing login credentials from users.

Why You Should Add Ground Pork to Lean Ground Beef

Why You Should Add Ground Pork to Lean Ground Beef

Besides stubbing my toe, nothing enrages me quite like accidentally buying a low-fat version of a product I love. I still haven’t forgiven myself for the Low-Fat Sour Cream Incident of 2016, and I don’t know that I ever will. A similar rage almost overtook me recently when I grabbed a package of extra lean ground beef…

You Should Create a Family Motto

You Should Create a Family Motto

When we were foster parents to a nine-year-old boy a couple of years ago, my husband and I implemented a family motto. It was one that was suggested to a group of us during a foster parenting training session, a mantra that is often used when parenting kids with trauma: “No hurts, stick together, have fun.”

Make Salad Prep Easier With Kitchen Shears

Make Salad Prep Easier With Kitchen Shears

Salads, in my opinion, should be a fork-only operation. Once the salad is prepared—preferably in a large mixing bowl—one should be able to stab and shovel the greens and various toppings into one’s mouth, without use of a knife. Actually, I barely use a knife during the salad-making process—scissors are my salad prep…

Why You Should Wait to Show Your Kids Videos of Themselves

When I was a kid, I performed in various community musicals. As a painfully shy child, I somehow felt comfortable on the stage. The costumes, the pre-show jitters, the post-show satisfaction—I loved it all. That is, until my dad would pop in a VHS tape of my performances the moment we had guests in our home.

Does Exercising in Makeup Cause Acne?

Does Exercising in Makeup Cause Acne?

I don’t wear makeup to work out, but I also don’t judge—partly because the heaviest makeup I’ve ever seen at the gym was on a regular who was super-jacked. Whatever she was doing, it was working for her! But I’ve often heard whispers about those people who work out in makeup. Isn’t it ruining their skin??
