What Is Flaxseed? Before it’s dried and harvested for its seeds (aka linseed in some places), flax blooms as a blue-flowered perennial plant. Historically, flax plant crops were grown in the U.S. for their fibrous stalks, which could be turned into material for clothing. Today, the seeds are used as a versatile (and affordable) way to add fatty acids, fiber, and iron to your diet.

Her design studio started with a human interest incentive—a way to raise money for causes she cared about in the midst of COVID-19—and has grown into a business complete with custom-made pieces, from squiggle key chains and shelves to cloud-printed stools.

A Quick History of Lip Plumpers OG lip plumpers surfaced in the mid-2000s, and by 2010 were a full-blown beauty category. Back then, these products typically worked via mildly irritating “vasodilator” ingredients such as peppermint, cinnamon, ginger, and capsaicin, notes Blair Hayes, board-certified aesthetics physician assistant. Some even used bee venom, which were believed to trigger an inflammatory response. Everyone had a tube of tingly lip plumper in their purse, and there was a weird sort of pleasure in the zing of each application....

A pro tip: The bottom, glum-faced pumpkin quite literally plays the heavy in this tower; we weighted it down by adding heavy rocks and sand to its interior for extra stability. To carve: Hollow out four pumpkins in various shapes, colors, and sizes, scraping the inside walls thinnest on the sides you’re planning to carve. (No thicker than 1" works best.) Print out the stencil patterns and tape them to the pumpkins’ surfaces....

The idea was simple: Get water away from the places it tends to collect by carving out an easy path for it. However, unlike a ditch, this drainage path is totally underground. What is a French Drain? A French drain is a trench that houses a perforated pipe buried beneath layers of gravel....
