There's an interesting discussion at GetRichSlowly about how to find a job you love. It's a good read, and I don't want to steal their thunder, so I'll just say the two things I have to add....
You might want to make your own soap because you're allergic to some of the common ingredients in store-bought soap, or because it saves money, or just for the fun of mixing your own scents and...
I've had a lot of sinusitis and a few sinus infections over the years. Unless it's a bacterial sinus infection, there is nothing a doctor can do but advise you about over-the-counter and home...
Someone recently recommended aloe vera gel to me as a hair gel, especially for hair that tends to frizz (that'd be me!). I was skeptical because I'd tried it for that very thing years ago. But...
If you use a flat iron to straighten or smooth your hair and you've noticed it's not working like it used to, that means you need to clean it. Fortunately, this is remarkably simple, whether your...
Oh, here we go again. Just as I’ve stopped getting calls from the fake company “Account Services“, I started getting robot calls from a collection agency called National Action Financial Services. They’re a real company, but they don’t ask for anyone by name on the messages they leave. It turned out they were after the person who had my phone ...Read More

For decades, I thought brussels sprouts were gross because they had this sulfur taste I couldn’t stand. And they were mushy.
It turned out I’d just never had them cooked properly. Or, more precisely, not cooked at all. I recently tried raw brussels sprouts for the first time, and it’s become my new favorite snack. I’m not joking. And they’re totally ...Read More

I love cheese, but I can only eat so much at a time. I especially like some of the moderately pricey ones like smoked gouda (seen here). But I would rarely treat myself because whenever I buy even the smallest wedge or wheel available, it goes off before I can finish it.
