Picture it: Aromatic, warm broth filled with savory veggies. Your spoon dips into a fluffy dumping. Yummm, right? We’re all for the idea of clean eating in the New Year, but if we’re being completely honest, cozy, comforting dinners are all we want to eat when the weather is cold. And Martha Stewart has us all covered with her Chicken and Dumping Soup for those chilly, bundle-up-by-the-fire nights — because, let’s face it, soup season is still going strong and will be for a while....

Melissa McCarthy is taking a walk down memory lane in Stars Hollow, and we’re feeling just as nostalgic as she is. In celebration of Gilmore Girls’ 22nd anniversary, McCarthy shared a sweet tribute to her former co-stars and lifelong GG fans on her Instagram.

There’s nothing worse than realizing you missed someone’s birthday or anniversary or knowing it’s tomorrow and you don’t have any cards on hand. Next thing you know, you’re rushing to the store to grab a card, and they don’t have any you like or are sold out. Always be prepared by having a stash of cards at home for every occasion and keep them tidy with greeting card organizers. It can be easy to stuff cards in random drawers or folders, but that can be a recipe for disaster....

Gone are the days when kids had to raise their hands, rise from their desks and walk to sharpen their pencils in the corner of the classroom.

Ever-worried celebrity moms: They’re just like us! Angelina Jolie was every mid-pandemic divorced co-parent, aka she was definitely me, upon ex-husband Brad Pitt’s recent return from a trip abroad: She required that he quarantine for 14 days before seeing his kids again. And honestly, who could blame her? Air travel in 2020 is some pretty scary stuff. US Weekly reported Tuesday that after Pitt vacationed in the south of France this summer with his new girlfriend, German model Nicole Poturalski, “Angelina insisted Brad quarantine for 14 days after he returned from France” before he reunited with his and Jolie’s kids — Knox, Vivienne, Shiloh, Zahara, Pax, and Maddox....

Bindi Irwin shared her pregnancy news this past summer, and she’s kept fans updated with sweet baby bump pics throughout much of her pregnancy journey — but she has kept certain things a secret. Although she and her husband, Chandler Powell, announced their baby’s gender, they have yet to announce their daughter’s name. That hasn’t stopped fans from guessing the baby name, though, and we think they may be on to something....

Myriads of protesters are hitting the streets to support the Black Lives Matter movement and to demand justice for Black Americans who have been killed — and continue to be killed — by police officers. A couple weeks ago, January Jones and her 8-year-old son joined a neighborhood protest, which gave us hope that more white celebrity parents will hit the streets with their kids.

Our favorite thing about cooking in the summer is that the produce is so ripe, so flavorful, and so fresh, that you don’t have to use a lot of fancy cooking techniques to make a delicious meal. One of the masters of this style of cooking is Giada De Laurentiis, probably because she gets so much of her culinary inspiration from Italy, which often puts seasonal foods front-and-center with tasty results....

I’m from New England, which means that fall is my favorite season. I love apple picking, visiting pumpkin patches, watching the leaves change color, and breaking out the sweaters when nights start to get chilly. But I now live in Los Angeles, where temps can reach the 100s even through October. What the heck is a fall-loving gal to do?
