The Turbo Microfiber Mop Floor Cleaning System is a three-in-one tool that dusts, sweeps, and mops surfaces. While most would use it exclusively on their floors, I’d like to make the case for using it on a surface that’s often neglected: walls. In my dust-ridden home, I’ve noticed subtle specks and the occasional spider web on my walls and baseboards—but I had no idea just how much debris was stuck on them until I used the mop....
As I have explored Spanx (and purchased additional pieces on my own), I have come to sincerely admire so much more about this brand well beyond its jeans. I’ve found that the style, the fabrics, and the quality of Spanx pieces are unmatched. I love Spanx so much that I’m happy to pay full price, but there’s nothing quite like a sale—and the brand’s biggest sale of the year starts today and stays live through Monday, November 28....

Jenni Kayne Home has long established itself as the premier home shop for this monochromatic look. Its design offerings are full of white, cream, beige, tan, and natural wood hues that make up this “neutral aesthetic” that shoppers everywhere are embracing for every room of their home. The term has even been recognized by Google as a rising trend over the past month that’s continuing to pick up steam—and the new home collection from Jenni Kayne fits it to a T....
Lighter Ceiling = Brighter Room If you’re hoping to brighten up the room, New York-based interior designer Mikel Welch says that brushing the same color and finish on the walls and ceiling might not be the best choice. “For increased lighting in a dimly-lit room, opt for a shade lighter on the ceiling. As a general rule of thumb, I would go 20% lighter on the ceilings,” he says. However, if the room is naturally sun-drenched, you can probably get away with the same color on the walls and ceiling....
The mats are made of fiberglass mesh and food-grade silicone. They have a rubbery texture that frankly made me skeptical to put them in the oven, but the promise of a nonstick bake intrigued me enough to give it a try. And after testing them out on a variety of foods, I was sold. First up was roasted prosciutto. Normally, a delicate meat like this would stick to a baking sheet or even aluminum foil, but it practically slid off of the Silpat mat after getting crispy in the oven....
There’s bell pepper in the beef filling and crispy roasted broccolini alongside. Substitute regular broccoli for the broccolini if you can’t find it or if picky eaters will be wary. The ground round has 80% lean meat and 20% fat, a great ratio for juicy, tender beef. Serve with extra napkins—it’s a delightfully hands-on meal!
You know how there are some people that you just know what their candy is? My brother is one of those people. He’s always been a huge fan of Snickers and Reese’s Pieces. He’s definitely the person that’ll show up to the movie box full of the fun fall colored candies. I’ve always made chocolate chip M&M cookies in the past but thought it time to try out making some with Reese’s Pieces for him instead....
Prior to the makeover, Dane’s closet was tidy, but closed doors on a row of wardrobes prevented her from seeing her options without opening each door. To make getting ready feel more like a visit to a favorite clothing boutique, Dane used a series of cabinets—one with shelves for shoes, another with clothing rod and pull-out drawers—to make the closet easier to navigate. From there, some clever closet organizers, like a paper tray repurposed as an accessories catchall, keep everything neat....
If you’ve read my blog for very long, you’ll know I love layered desserts. From my Valentine’s Day layered jello cups to my Oreo dirt cake that’s filled with layers of pudding and Oreos – layered desserts are one of my specialities! So it seemed only fitting to make layered St. Patrick’s Day pudding cups that combine the mint flavor of these mint hot chocolate bombs with the festiveness of these Lucky Charms cookies in one easy dessert....
When you think of wings, you probably think of buffalo wings or BBQ wings. Or maybe even garlic parmesan wings. After you make these sticky chicken wings, they’ll be the first thing you think of when you think about wings! They’re seasoned, baked crisp to perfection, and tossed in a sweet and sticky Asian wing sauce. They’d be perfect for game day, to enjoy with your favorite Asian dish (I recommend this coconut rice), or any time you’re just craving wings....
A day later, as you’re nursing a killer sunburn, you would do anything to alleviate the pain and diminish the red hue. Though this happens to everyone, dermatologists say a single sunburn is one too many. Especially when not treated properly, you run the risk of developing sores, infections, scarring, or even worse, skin cancer. The good news is, sunburn relief is possible most of the time. Here’s your expert guide to how to get rid of sunburn fast so you can get back to your holiday ASAP....
