If you're going to carve some pumpkins this week, here's a tip . . . don't cut the stem off.     It will last much longer if you cut a hole in the bottom or back of it instead.     Unless you like the flies that swarm around rotting fruit.  Then go right ahead!     Fun fact:  Did you know that the stem of the pumpkin was attached to the vine that fed it?  (Me neither.)  So, the stem of your pumpkin contains a lot of nutrients required to keep your pumpkin healthy.     When the stem [...]

A study out of the University of Brighton looked at the ways having a DOG can positively impact your life. And even though the study focused specifically on dogs, a lot of these things can apply to pets in general . . .     1. Structure and routine. Like getting up in the morning to feed them, or going on walks that you might otherwise let slide if your dog wasn't depending on them.     2. Companionship. Having a dog by your side can ward off feelings of loneliness. And some people even use their pets as sounding boards, [...]

On Halloween, PORCH "PIRATES" only want your candy . . . as opposed to the rest of the year, when porch pirates want to STEAL YOUR STUFF.     According to new research, Americans lost an estimated $15.7 BILLION to porch pirates last year alone. That's from 241 MILLION stolen packages.     The average loss isn't huge. It's $65 per package, and 85% are under $100 . . . but that doesn't make the inconvenience any less infuriating. And in some cases the loss of MONEY as well.     The most commonly stolen packages were from Amazon (72%) . [...]

We're one week into fall.  Have you done any of this stuff yet?  Someone shared a list of five autumn safety checks you might want to do on your home sooner rather than later.     1.  Chimneys and heating systems.  Check your heating system, or have a professional look for things like gas leaks.  If you have a fireplace, nests and other blockages in your chimney can cause a fire once you start using it.     2.  Smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.  Make sure they're working, and replace the batteries or entire units if you need to.     [...]
