At a glance, satin nickel and brushed nickel may seem indistinguishable. Truthfully, they’re very similar: They both showcase a timeless, silver-like sheen perfect for kitchen and bathroom finishes, including faucets, light fixtures, and cabinet handles. In fact, interior designer Bambi A’Lynn Bratton points out that some home decor retailers even market them under combined names that can be confusing, blending the terms “satin” and “brushed.”

If "cowboy spaghetti" makes you think more about spaghetti western movies than tonight's dinner, you wouldn't be alone. But like the movies, this is a recipe you won't soon forget. Cowboy spaghetti is like a much more smoky and savory spaghetti. This is really intended to be a fridge and pantry clean-out type of dish—throw in whatever produce you have (peppers, onions, celery) and canned goods (tomatoes, beans, and veggies). You can't go wrong.

It's Time To Give Cowboy Spaghetti A Twirl

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are two of the biggest celebrities in modern times. While much of the happenings between the two involved their marriage and divorce, there are bigger things for them to focus on. Most notably their children.

When you're working your way through a sinkful of dirty dishes for the third or fourth time in a day, it’s understandably tempting to scrape plates and everything else into the kitchen sink. After all, the sink is right there. Despite their tempting convenience, if you want your sink to last a lifetime—or at least avoid having the plumber on speed dial—it is best to keep drains for soap, water, and smaller food scraps.

Think twice before you wiggle into that new pair of jeans. I have a confession: Despite my practically compulsive need to use hand sanitizer after pumping gas, I often wear new clothes without washing them—especially if I have a fun outing planned the day the new duds land on my doorstep. Of course, I have my limits (linens, activewear, and the like all take a spin through the laundry before use), but generally, I’m not too precious about the preliminary wash cycle. If you, too, are in my camp and would like to continue to dwell here, you should probably stop reading now. We asked experts to weigh in, and they unanimously agreed: Washing before wearing is the move. Here’s the good, bad, and ugly of why you should be launder new clothes before you wear them.

Our 2024 Southern Living Idea House in Kiawah River makes a friendly first impression. A tabby sidewalk deposits neighbors and visitors from the street onto the front porch, where they’re greeted by blossom-filled planters and glowing gas lanterns. Of course, you expect the front of a house to put its best face forward, but at the Idea House, our side door (the entry point from the garage and driveway) makes for an especially cheery welcome too. That’s all thanks to the friends’ entrance—the feature that belongs in every Southern home.

Weeknight dinners aren’t my strong suit. As much as I’d love to be a faithful Sunday night meal prepper or the kind of person who can look in their fridge and whip up something fresh and fabulous from various odds and ends, I’m not. I usually get home from a long day at work, followed by a seemingly even longer workout, and immediately start looking for ways not to cook. Would a bowl of cereal hold me over? How about a girl dinner with that leftover nub of cheese? I’m also not above a can of soup or frozen pizza.
