But wouldn’t it be nice if you didn’t have to travel to indulge in some watermelon jerky and peanut butter blondies? To make Trader Joe’s more accessible to all, the national grocery store chain is constantly adding new locations, with many openings for 2022 already in the works. Trader Joe’s isn’t in all 50 states just yet—the chain is currently in 42 states, plus the District of Columbia—but it’s surely on its way to national domination....

In this version, orange zest brightens their walnut filling, which is sweetened with a touch of honey. Folding the puff pastry dough is fun, and, after a quick stay in the freezer, you’ll cut the folded dough into slices, and the signature palmier shape magically appears. You’ll love watching them puff and take on color in the oven. We prefer serving these with coffee or tea for breakfast, or as an after-dinner treat....

As children, many of our parents or caregivers immediately reached for citrus fruits or juice when considering vitamin C-rich foods, and they were right to do so (oranges, for instance, are a great source of vitamin C). That being said, our knowledge about the benefits of vitamin C, as well as the foods it’s found in, has greatly expanded in recent years. The best part about this wider array of immune-boosting options—other than how happy they make our taste buds (sorry, OJ)—is that many of them, including potatoes, provide many other nutrients and benefits when we eat them....

I discovered the Hey Dewy Wireless Humidifier from a friend that experienced similar symptoms and swore by the device. I have very little self-control when purchasing mini-versions of anything, so I was immediately drawn to the petite gadget that would hopefully ease my troubles. I’m happy to report that it’s still my go-to a year later. Hey Dewy’s countertop tool is a compact, cool mist humidifier that adds moisture to your air, which can improve allergies and congestion, soothe sinus issues, and combat dry skin....
It’s been a few months now and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. My floors are made of sealed hardwood, and I’ve struggled to find the right appliances and cleaning products to keep them spotless. I was intrigued by the fact that the device is a mop and vacuum cleaner all in one, uses disposable pads, and is cordless. The pads are easily locked into place on the bottom of the vacmop, and each pad contains a filter that holds vacuum debris....

Since taking a shower and meditating are both calming, mood-lifting parts of the day, why not use shower hour to get clean and practice mindfulness? With this logic in mind, Shauna Shapiro, PhD, a clinical psychologist, recommends combining these two calming self-care habits. “Four decades of research demonstrate the beneficial effects of meditation practice,” says Shapiro. “From strengthening your immune system, to lengthening telomeres, to improving your sleep.” That’s right, it’s time to start thinking of the shower as luxurious personal time to find your calm before (or after) taking on the day....
