Kids are curious, which is great. But sometimes (all the time?), they have no filter, which can make for awkward situations in public. Like when they yell about a woman who has pink hair right in front of her or when they point out that man is really old. Fair enough — plus it gives us as parents the opportunity to affirm and explain that these things are great, and everyone is unique (and 50 is not old!...

I guess you could say we’re just slightly obsessed with Trader Joe’s around here. But I mean, can you blame us? From their amazing array of frozen foods to their unbelievably affordable beauty products, it’s hard not to fall in love with the grocery retailer.

Summertime is overflowing with sweet, juicy and mouthwatering seasonal produce. There are tomatoes, berries, peaches, cucumbers, and so many more delicious flavors to enjoy. But, by far the most summery fruit out there is the watermelon. And, while it’s great on its own, it’s more fun to celebrate summer with a mixture of straight-up slices, and creative watermelon dishes. The great thing is, it’s easy to work watermelon into any meal, snack, or drink....

If you haven’t heard, CBD, or cannabidiol, is the hottest new superfood ingredient getting added to all sorts of things. We’re talking beverages, body balms, ice cream, and even coffee beans. The reason? There’s some evidence that CBD can help with a slew of issues, from period pain and inflammation to anxiety and arousal. But what’s the best way to incorporate it into your daily routine? Our favorite way to get a dose of CBD leaves the heavy ice creams and infused edibles behind in favor of thirst-quenching beverages....

Detoxes have been trending for decades, from the infamous cabbage soup diet of the 80s to the current celery craze. These dietary detoxes or “cleanses” are often easily debunkable or too-close to toxic diet culture for our tastes. (Personally, I’m partial to a green juice to kick off my day. However, the idea of surviving on nothing but cabbage soup for three days makes me want to declare war on all vegetables....

America has a serious fascination with the lives of the rich and famous — and there’s a new contender in town for our latest obsession. HBO Max’s new reality show House of Ho features the super rich Ho’s, a tight-knit Vietnamese-American family living large in Houston, Texas. The show will follow the lives of patriarch Binh Ho, wife Hue Ho, and their adult children Judy and Washington Ho (a third brother Reagan likely won’t appear on the show), plus Washington’s wife Lesley, Aunt Tina, and Cousin Sammy....

You can tell a lot about a person by their preference for… Girl Scout Cookies. When it comes to character-defining foods, these sweet treats peddled by entrepreneurial girls pretty much top the list. And make no mistake; the battle to determine which cookie is best basically stretches back to the early 1900s — that’s how long ago these little confectionary delights began being sold to finance troop activities. The good news in this ever-waged war is that there really aren’t any losers....

If we learned anything over the past few years, it’s that Black History Month is both incredibly important to this country and a woefully inadequate substitute for integrating all peoples’ histories into our understanding of what the U.S. was and is. In short, by know we should all be pretty firm in the fact that we need to learn and review Black history every month of the year. But since we do have “Black History” marked on our calendars every February, it is also an excellent time to sit down with our children and speak to them about the varied contributions and accomplishments Black people have made in the U....

Just like with fashion, interior design trends come and go. We tend to look to celeb designers like Queer Eye‘s Bobby Berk to get a headstart on the new “it” trend of the interior design world. Berk, who recently partnered with Sensodyne to introduce Nourish: a sustainable toothpaste that delivers on product efficacy, says that for him personally, the hottest new design trend is sustainability. We were lucky enough to sit down with Berk recently to chat all about sustainability (including his new line of sustainably-produced rugs!...

Demi Moore and ex-husband Bruce Willis’ three beautiful daughters Rumer, Scout, and Tallulah Willis share their parents’ good looks, creative talent, and powerhouse energy. They also all happen to live fully sober lifestyles, as do parents Demi and Bruce. But eldest daughter Rumer would caution against confusing their sobriety for a uniform past of addiction, noting that she made the choice to get sober on her own in 2017. While Rumer has since reckoned with her own relationship to substances, her story remains starkly different from, say, mom Demi Moore’s, whose alcoholism and drug addiction are chronicled in detail in recent memoir Inside Out — and it’s evident that Rumer has learned at least as much about dealing with a loved one’s addiction as she has with her own....

Lily Rabe is accustomed to tackling characters who can be otherworldly in one project and incredibly grounded in another.

Knowing how to navigate a friend or family member’s cancer journey can be tricky, especially if it’s one you haven’t experienced yourself. What should you do when a loved one with cancer is feeling better after a tough surgery or treatment? Or receives a good follow-up report from their oncologist? Or celebrates a cancer-related anniversary? Surely, these milestones are worth recognizing, but how? For inspiration, we spoke with 27-year cancer survivor Saralyn Lash, who leads Relay For Life’s national community fundraising leadership team, about what she does for herself on the special anniversaries in her own journey....

June 29, 1980. That was the last time Jerry Seinfeld — the fictional, sitcom version of Jerry Seinfeld — threw up. Fictional Jerry remembered the date exactly, as it was the closest thing resembling trauma he had ever dealt with. I understand now why Jerry clung to that date: It was a date with significance for him, especially now that I cling to March 13, 2020, in much the same way....
