I’ve talked about it before, maybe when I shared the best butterbeer recipe, or maybe when I shared some of our favorite Harry Potter games – but my family, we love Harry Potter! I first tried pumpkin juice at Harry Potter World at Universal Orlando (and then again at Universal Studios Hollywood) but since we’re not there as often as I’d like, I had to to try and recreate it at home!...

Buying A House 4 Signs You Re Ready

To distinguish between wanting to buy a home and actually being ready to do so, we turned to Shelby McDaniels, executive director of corporate home lending at JPMorgan Chase. McDaniels’ tips can help you decide if now is the time to buy a house, or if you’re better off renewing your lease and renting for another year.

Buying A House Needing Renovations Could Be Smart

According to a 2019 survey from real estate site Realtor.com, almost 60 percent of people who hoped to buy a home that spring season considered purchasing a less expensive home that maybe needed some renovating, essentially sacrificing a few items on their home wish lists in order to buy a home. For the survey, Realtor.com asked more than 1,000 people who planned to purchase a home within the next year about their home-buying plans and whether they’d consider a home needing renovation....

Dead Butt Syndrome Is A Thing Here Are All The Signs And How To Prevent It

What Is Dead Butt Syndrome? Gluteal amnesia is exactly what it sounds like: Your glutes forget their purpose. (That is: keeping us upright and propelling us forward when we walk.) The gluteal muscle becomes neurologically inhibited and doesn’t activate when it should," says Jeff Fishel, MS, DC, a chiropractor in Arcola, Illinois. That may not sound like a big deal until you consider how this might work against you. “If the glute muscles are weak, other parts of the body may take additional stress, which can potentially result in injury,” says W....

Easy Budget Landscape Ideas To Add Personality And Style To Your Yard

Many people think using fabrics outdoors is a no-no, but that’s not the case. Look for inexpensive materials on clearance or remnants, or you can recycle sheets and consider the fabrics semi-disposable. Leave them in the rain and then let the sun dry them again. They’ll last just a year or two, but then you’ll be free to start with a fresh look. The other alternative is to invest in rugged, exterior-quality fabrics found at most fabric shops....

Easy Buffalo Chicken Roll Ups

One of the most popular themes each year is a game day party, and one of my all-time favorite game day party foods is buffalo chicken dip. It’s a party staple at our house. But for parties, this buffalo chicken dip recipe has one main problem – when it cools down, it’s kind of hard to dip. Reheating it is easy but still. I still make it all the time, but I like to make other things with buffalo chicken dip flavors as well!...

Easy Caprese Salad Skewers With Balsamic Glaze

My husband is a caprese salad junkie, if that’s a thing. Any time there’s a caprese salad (or an insalata caprese as it’s actually called) on a menu, he orders it.

There’s a reason this combination is such a popular choice during summer months where you can find fresh grape tomatoes and basil growing like crazy....

Easy Chocolate Spider Web Pretzels For Halloween

Let me just start by saying that I don’t like spiders, like at all. And I like walking through spiderwebs even less. But I do like spider treats like these spider cookies and today’s pretzel spider webs! And the spider web cookies at Disneyland were one of my favorite Disneyland Halloween food items! It’s probably because I’m a boy mom and we end up playing in a lot of dirt and hanging out with a lot of spiders, not on purpose but it just happens when you’re chasing boys around....

Everything You Need To Know About Gochujang Sauce

What does gochujang taste like? So, what does gochujang taste like? To compare it with two popular sauces that almost always comes up in the same breath, gochujang is like the love child of sriracha and miso—spicy like the former, pungent like the latter—with a hint of sweetness. You could probably guess this from the color and flavor, but chilies (specifically, a type of dried chile powder called gochugaru) are one of the main ingredients, along with salt, glutinous rice (aka sticky rice), and fermented soybeans....
