As Chick-fil-A continues on its mission to perfect the drive-through experience, things are looking up. We're being quite serious here, because the fast-food chain opened its first Elevated Drive-Thru this week in Stockbridge, Georgia, a suburb that lies south of Atlanta. At this futuristic restaurant, the lower level is essentially a tunnel that allows for four lanes of traffic. The massive kitchen resides above.

When I was a professional baker, I often had to grate pounds of carrots by hand for cake when the food processor was broken, or after the grating plate insert went missing. Although tiny, I built some serious arm muscles between the kneading and the grating I did daily, and I have only recently come to learn that when it comes to grating, there was a better way of doing it this entire time. It's a super simple fix, too.

Although the latter country star’s tragically premature death often places these two women in separate eras of country music, there was a time when Dolly Parton and Patsy Cline walked the hallowed grounds of the Grand Ole Opry at the same time. Cline was 14 years Parton’s senior, but after Parton made her Opry debut in 1959, the two became musical peers of sorts.
