So what is Detroit-style pizza? What distinguishes Detroit-style pies from the flat, round classics you can find in virtually every town in America (or in any Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles episode)? A lot, actually. First, while traditional slice-joint pizza is topped with mozzarella (or burrata, if you’re eating somewhere fancy with actual silverware and Haim is playing over the stereo), Detroit-style pizza is usually made with Wisconsin brick cheese. This cheese has a stronger, more cheddar-y flavor than mozzarella and a higher fat content....

Just like a sunburned scalp can feel more troublesome than a sunburned arm, having this scalp type can feel worse than dry skin anywhere else. We’ve asked experts what causes a dry scalp and how to treat it at home. Excessive Washing Has your stylist ever scolded you for washing your hair too often? This can hurt color treatments, of course, but it can also cause dry scalp issues, according to Brendan Camp, MD, FAAD, a double board-certified dermatologist and dermatopathologist....

Tiny touches, like hanging ornaments from the stair railings and adding a festive scent with cinnamon sticks, are all you’ll need to decorate your home for the holidays. Here are our favorite under-five-minute ways to set the scene for Christmas.

I’m finally admitting that it’s pumpkin season around here. The weather is cooling down (yay!), Halloween is just around the corner, and I can’t pretend that it’s still summer anymore. This cream cheese pumpkin dip is just one of a handful of brand new pumpkin recipes I’ll be sharing this year. I’ve already shared pumpkin chocolate chip blondies and pumpkin oatmeal cookies with lots more pumpkin to come! Okay so let’s talk about this dip....

Why they help: If you spend many hours a day sitting, your glutes—the large muscles in your rear end—can become weak, while the hip flexor muscles on the front of your hips get extra tight (or, technically, short) from being in a shortened position. When you stand, those tight hip flexors may start to scream, and without powerful glutes, muscles in your back may compensate to help you walk, causing pain and imbalance....

Not Your Average S’mores Okay so we’ve all tried s’mores before. And if you haven’t, stop reading and go make yourself a s’more. I mean maybe even go all out and try setting up an entire DIY s’mores bar. For the rest of us, there is just something magical about the three traditional flavors of a s’more – graham cracker, chocolate, and marshmallow. These peanut butter s’more bars take those flavors up a notch with a graham cracker cookie crust, chocolate, marshmallow, and peanut butter cups....

Animal-related agriculture, for example, uses more than two-thirds of our farmland and is the largest source of water pollution, according to the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has estimated that 80 percent of the antibiotics distributed in this country go to animals. The U.N., the medical journal Lancet, and a host of other trusted authorities have called livestock production one of the most significant contributors to the climate crisis—and say it creates more emissions than all of the world’s transportation combined....

I recently got interested in the health benefits of fermented foods and started buying jars of kimchi at my local health food store. Tired of shelling out $10 for what is essentially cabbage, I decided to make my own. After talking to a few experts, making a few mistakes, and chopping a LOT of cabbage, I feel ready to share what I discovered. Read on to learn more about what kimchi is, and how you can make it at home....

What Are Morel Mushrooms? Completely distinguishable from any other type of gourmet fungus, morels are a class of their own, dark, spongy, and uniquely rotund and dimpled. “Morel mushrooms are a group of mushrooms in the Morchella family, sometimes called sponge mushrooms,” explains Ron Kerner, the mushroom expert behind the foraging site Indiana Mushrooms. “Morels grow from a fungus that is usually underground. These fungi have symbiotic (mycorrhizal) relationships with trees and help them absorb nutrients and water from the soil by interconnecting with the tree’s roots....

With kids being out of school so long for winter break during the holiday season, I’m always trying to come up with different Christmas activities for them to do so we’re not just sitting around. There are only so many Christmas games you can play with a family of four.

The goal of the camp each year is to help the girls have fun, make new friends in the area, and most importantly, feel the Spirit and love that their Heavenly Father has for them. Over the past few months, I’ve really been trying to figure out where I belong, what I should be doing, and how I can better bless the lives of others. My experience last week answered all of those questions for me as I was given the opportunity to touch the lives of 75+ girls and leaders through my planning, love, and friendship....
