A: My second husband, Peter Foster, and I were typical people. We had five kids in a blended family, two jobs, and we were just holding stuff together. After hearing Richard, we understood the need to make life changes as soon as possible. We got rid of one of our cars and started carpooling and using mass transit. We rented rooms in our home.

As we move into this brave new 2019, workwear has made a truce with prep; Carhartt has catered to the streetwear community by offering plaid button-downs, overcoats, and somehow getting Chris Pine in its overalls. Daniel Day-Lewis wore head-to-toe Carhartt in early December, creating a minor Internet event. L.L.Bean chore coats and shirts appeared on sidewalks up and down the East Coast.

Triple the life of your herbs with the genius herb pod from kitchenware brand Prepara. This futuristic-looking gadget says that it prolongs fresh herbs for up to three weeks, and we were pleasantly surprised to find that the rosemary we left in there was beautifully intact after a 10-day holiday.

For small molecule drugs, the degradation dynamics are predictable based on the constituent compounds and knowledge of how they are impacted by storage and environmental conditions. For large molecule drugs, degradation pathways vary considerably, which means stability testing programs need to be bespoke for each product.

There are many important considerations when planting a bare root tree or perennial, far too many to cover in detail here. Consult these excellent resources before you buy and plant your bare root treasures:

A: There is an online community called couchsurfing.com. People share their homes — a couch or a bed — for a few days and no money changes hands. It’s truly sharing. We’ve conservatively had 50 couch-surfers over the past few years. It’s been wonderful. We’ve met people from all over the world and we’ve couch-surfed, too.
