When the weather is warm, not much makes me happier than firing up our outdoor pizza oven with a cold craft IPA in hand.

Chia seeds have been our go-to for a few years now, whether we’re making a healthy pudding for breakfast or dessert, adding them to our kombucha for a nutritional boost or using them as an egg substitute in our vegan baking. But there’s another seed out there that could be chia’s long-lost twin: the basil

Editors’ note: In the aftermath of the Oct. 1, 2017 shooting massacre that claimed the lives of 58 people, several psychology and counseling scholars at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas sprang into action to offer trauma counseling to victims and witnesses of the deadliest mass shooting in recent U.S. history.

PinYou probably recognize award-winning chef Aarón Sanchez from his costarring roles on Chopped and Chopped Jr., his showstopping tie with Masaharu Morimoto on Iron Chef America or his latest role alongside Gordon Ramsay, Joe Bastianich and Christina Tosi on MasterChef.

Actor Olivia Wilde confirmed to Jimmy Kimmel on Monday night that the rumors are true: Her fiancé, Jason Sudeikis, was born without a sense of smell — or taste.  “Apparently, it took quite a while for him to realize it,” Wilde said to Kimmel. “I had weirdly heard it from our mutual friends, and it was

First birthday parties are a big deal, and that’s often especially true for celebrities. In fact, plenty of stars throw extravagant bashes for their toddler-to-be. However, Serena Williams is not one of those stars. In fact, the tennis champion recently revealed that Olympia will not celebrate her first birthday or any birthday for that matter

In the past, we’ve lost our cool when we saw former President Barack Obama dining out with certified hottie Justin Trudeau (his other title? Prime minister of Canada), but nothing quite tugs the heartstrings like learning that Obama and former vice president-turned-ultra-BFF Joe Biden recently had lunch together. I hope they were wearing their friendship
