There are many ways to roast a chicken, and many of them are good. There are so many, in fact, that I rarely roast a chicken the same way twice, though I think that’s all about to change, as I am now obsessed with smearing whole chickens with the strained, cream cheese-like yogurt known as “labneh.”

Mason bees are pretty damn awesome: They’re docile, easy to raise and are amazing pollinators of spring flowering fruit and nut trees. These bees don’t use hives the way honey bees do, instead preferring to place their eggs in narrow holes, plugged up with mud (hence the name “mason”).

If your Firefox browser add-ons have suddenly stopped working, are now “unsupported” without any warning, or you can’t install any new ones, don’t worry: Mozilla is aware of these bugs and is working on fixing the issue. Resist the urge to adopt any clever workarounds right now, which might mess up any solutions…

I’ve spent most of my life looking up at pull-up bars, wishing I could ascend to their height. Sometimes I would train hard, and I would get one (1) pull-up. But then I’d slack off for a hot minute, and I’d be back down to zero. I’m a cis woman, not particularly gifted with upper-body muscle. But last year I decided I…

Robocalls are getting worse—that should be a familiar headline, if not a familiar feeling, for anyone who owns a smartphone. Mine have gotten a little better, but I have plenty of friends who aren’t so lucky—and are getting sick of call after call of random insurance scams, “special court notices,” or whatever the…

It’s May, which means summer is just within reach and your winter coats can finally be laid to rest. But before you head to the beach for your first bonfire of the season, here’s one important recommendation if you want to avoid inhaling toxic chemicals: Don’t burn any driftwood you might find on the beach.

Not too long ago, I went to an herbalist, who made me a tincture that will supposedly help with some stomach issues I’ve been having (I don’t want to get into it, and that’s not what this story is about anyway, so don’t you people get into it in the comments either!). The tincture not only tastes utterly disgusting,…

If you have kids, you know that kids get bored. I solidly believe that it’s good for kids to be bored sometimes, but there are also moments when you want to shake things up a bit and you’re feeling low on inspiration. When it’s been raining for three straight days and the words “I don’t know, read a book,” come out of…

If you’re a U.S.-based freelancer, working with international clients can be a good way to expand your portfolio and earn extra money—but it can also come with some unexpected costs.

If you make a habit of reading the labels on bottles of a store-bought salad dressing—including the fancy ones—you are unlikely to find olive oil on most ingredient lists. This is partly a matter of cost, but it’s also a matter of taste.

If you feel obligated to invite a bunch of people to your wedding while secretly hoping the majority of them send their regrets, the destination wedding is the way to go.

Since taking office, President Trump has made 10,000 false or misleading statements, according to a report by the Washington Post.

My 6-year-old and I have been enjoying a children’s book series called “You Read to Me, I’ll Read to You.” These books are formatted for two people to take turns reading different parts, like a script. We sit side-by-side, playing different characters and doing all the silly voices (I’m expecting a nod from the…

iOS: The part I hate most about any kind of weight-loss plan is the whole “I have to pull out my phone and type in everything I eat to keep me honest” aspect. Because as much as I pretend I can do mental math when it comes to the food I eat, I tend to forget a handful of raisins here, a protein bar there, a miniature…

There’s bullshit health advice everywhere, but you’d hope that when you follow someone on Insta who looks legit—lots of followers, blue checkmark, solid-looking advice on a blog—you’d get the good stuff. Unfortunately, there’s still a lot of crap out there.

You could have set your watch by it: As soon as Netflix struck gold with Orange Is the New Black, someone had the bright idea that to make a reality show about a women’s prison. Jailbirds (Friday) looks like what would happen if the geniuses with that bright idea were the creators of Jersey Shore, which is to say that…

Slim velvet hangers, as we’ve covered, are one of the five types of hangers you need in your life.

Scroll the comment section on virtually any site on the web and you’re bound to encounter at least a few toxic comments. Maybe more than a few, depending on the site you’re looking at and the topic of the post people are commenting on.

If your Cinco de Mayo celebrations have you tossing back a few aged tequila shots today, consider ditching the line and salt with those shots for a grapefruit with a dusting of cinnamon instead.
