Postpartum bodies can be hard to get used to for some new parents. It’s easy to fall into the trap of unattainable beauty standards and, instead of embracing a post-baby body and the miracle it just performed (via C-section or natural birth), see it as somehow flawed.

Turkey may take the crown on Thanksgiving (even this year’s smaller, more manageable bird), but for us, the day wouldn’t be complete without a slice of our favorite pie. We’ve heard most of our favorite chefs’ best pie tips and tricks, but frankly, we still stumble when it comes to making a stellar homemade pie crust. To the rescue: Martha Stewart, who just shared an amazing throwback video with icon Betty White....

Kiruna, the northernmost city in Sweden, has always been a mining town. Since it was first settled in the late 1800s, it’s been a community centered, quite literally, on top of its iron ore mine. The Kiruna mine has grown to be the largest underground iron ore mine in the world and has ultimately destabilized the ground the very town sat on. Rather than shutter the mine, in 2018, the state-owned mining company LKAB paid 22....
