I should clean it; it really does interrupt the beautiful waft that comes from a springy cake in the oven. I have a handful of prospective projects I am back and forth about between two email addresses that while made with good intentions to keep personal and work separately have done no such thing. There are threads regarding a potential cookbook, a recipe and article assignment about avocados, a menu card for our fundraiser dinner and open items to finish filing our taxes. Woven in between are emails about Curran's first (overdue apparently, oops) dentist appointment, follow up on invoices and the receipt for that weird oversized shirt I ordered from Nordstrom that I keep there to remind myself to return it some night after the kids are down. I never feel like doing that once the kids are down... but I also don't like going to the mall with two spirited toddlers so you may...

Body hair grows more when shaving: Pediatrician and researcher Rachel Freeman and assistant professor of pediatrics Aaron Carroll confirmed that this is just a rumor where recent studies have shown that shaving does not affect the density or rate of hair growth, in addition to it removes the outer dead part of the hair and not the inner part of the living under the skin, so they never affect the rate and type of growth, in fact shaved hair is usually coarse, which leads you to think that it is thicker. 2.

How to caress and stretch the cat according to science

Many of us will face that friendly cat that likes to be touched at some point, just to bite us or hit us lightly afterward. In this case, it may be easy to blame the cat, but what most likely happens is that we don't know how to master the cat the right way. To understand why, we first need to know more about the cat breed. The ancestors of the domestic cat (such as the African wildcat) were probably considered merely a means of pest control, but contemporary cats are often treated as one of our valuable owners or as "fur-coated children". This social shift in the relationship between humans and cats is believed to have occurred about 4,000 years ago — a little more delayed than the "man's best friend" — the domestic dog. Although this may seem like enough time for species to fully adapt to growing social demands, this is unlikely to be the case with your son-in-one. Domestic cats also show a relatively modest genetic deviation from their ancestors, which me...
