With the Tour de France zipping through the countryside this month, I’ve been thinking about what one would have to eat in preparation for a 2,200-mile, 23-day bike race. A person’s typical daily meal plan probably isn’t enough to power the trip, right? So how many calories would you have to consume? I asked Nigel Mitchell, head of nutrition for Cannondale Drapac, an American professional cycling team competing in the race, to break down the diet of the average cyclist for his team.

The menu is actually quite involved, which got me thinking even more: Wouldn’t it be easier if everyone just ate baguettes instead? The competition is in France, after all. Based on Mitchell’s description of an average meal plan (and the calories in an average two-ounce French baguette), here’s what that would actually look like.

Why is it that lazy Susans are basically the automatic go-to when it comes to corner cabinets in kitchens? (Fun fact: The pros call them blind corners, which definitely isn’t a good sign!) Lazy Susans usually still result in a lot of dead space and, let’s be honest, have you ever turned one that didn’t screech something awful every step of the way?

We get that they’re relatively inexpensive (especially compared to those special shelf systems that are designed to effortlessly glide all the way in and all the way out of corner cabinets) and they’re just what people know. Chances are, this is the system your parents had when you were growing up and you can’t think of what else you’d even do with that space. Well, if you’re renovating your kitchen, we have some ideas.

Here are three things to do with the corners in your kitchen — and none of them involve a lazy Susan.

Dessert really doesn’t get much easier than this. Three ingredients — berries, sour cream, and brown sugar — join forces to create a sweet treat that’s juicy, creamy, crunchy, and caramelized all at once. It feels fancy and special, but it’s super simple to assemble, making it the perfect choice for all your summer party dessert needs.

I have this tiny problem: Every summer, without exception, I buy a case of peaches at the farmers market. I’ll can peaches to last the winter, and then bake a pie, I promise myself. And every summer, without fail, I run out of time for canning or processing jam. Freezing sliced peaches is one option, but this year I’m turning to freezer jam to get my peach preserve fix.

We’ll show you the basics of freezer jam and give you a master class on pectin so you too can buy too many peaches and have a freezer full of fresh jam long into the winter.

My first summer job was at the local supermarket in my hometown. For 20 hours a week, I traded my swimsuit for an unflattering maroon smock and rang up groceries, enjoying the air conditioning and fairly mindless work of scanning items and swiping credit cards.

Little did I know that I was actually learning (about myself!) while I was there!

If you dig deep enough in the “today’s deals” section on Amazon, you can find some legitimately hidden gems. For example, we found these bistro napkins buried on the eighth page. And clearly not many people have found them before us because they only have two reviews. While the lack of reviews means you don’t have much to go on, this set of four napkins is less than $6, so it seems like a risk that might be worth taking. After all, you can never have too many cloth napkins for everyday use — especially when it comes to basic, French-inspired napkins like these.
