LA Dunn spent years blogging about “mommylife” and “wifelife.” She celebrated the joys, ranted about the frustrations (fair!), and wrote about everything in between. That all changed in 2017 when Dunn, the founder of Black Girls Eat, started to experience pain throughout her body. After taking tests and consulting with her doctor, she took a look at her diet and the ways in which certain foods cause inflammation (and the pain that comes along with it)....

It’s been a day since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced they’ve decided to “step back as senior members of the Royal Family,” and we have questions. You probably do, too. Really, who doesn’t? Well, Harry and Meghan had the foresight to anticipate that their groundbreaking decision to break from the monarchy would result in roughly one billion questions from fans and followers — and while they undoubtedly can’t answer every single question, they’ve effectively answered all of the really big ones on their website, SussexRoyal....

When you have kids, you have more than you need around the house, which means you have more than you can organize. Unfortunately many of your baby and kid essentials are bulky, so you can only do so much when storing them away, such as strollers.

Confession: I’m a 42-year-old mom, and I use the Nintendo Switch that my husband and I bought “for the kids” every single day. In fact, I’m not exaggerating when I say that it was one of the best investments we’ve ever made for our family as a whole. We bought our Nintendo Switch when it was first released in 2017; at the time, my kids were 12, 9, 8, and 5....

What is Kwanzaa? Is it an alternative to Christmas? An ancient African harvest celebration? Created by activist Dr. Maulana Karenga in 1966, when the civil rights movement was in full swing, Kwanzaa has its origins in the first harvest celebrations of ancient Africa. The name of the celebration period comes from the Swahili phrase matunda ya kwanza, which means “first fruits.” In the midst of the Black Freedom Movement, Kwanzaa was established to strengthen the African-American community and reaffirm a sense of pride and rootedness in African culture....

Back-to-school shopping is always stressful for both parents and kids, but something both parties can get excited about is locker accessories. Middle school and high school kids are excited about lockers, because it’s their space — and we all know how much they like their space. Lockers are for both storage and socializing before and after class. Locker accessories are also much cooler, dare I say chic, than they were when the previous generations were in high school....

When you meet a newborn baby, it’s common courtesy to bring food or gifts. It’s been that way since caveman times (probably) because parents are exhausted, babies are cute, and it’s just polite. If you’ve never had a baby, you may not realize exactly how draining those first few weeks and months are, but seasoned parents have no excuse not to extend a little grace. Apparently, one grandma on Reddit didn’t get the memo, and she actually was upset that her son’s house wasn’t clean when she came over to meet his newborn twins....
