Times are hectic so making the best of the time we have is essential. Who would have ever thought we would have to teach our kids from home while also working a full-time job?

No judgement either way but we have a solution to spice up your chef life. We believe meal kit delivery services will make your life easier. Best of all, you can skip or cancel at any time as you learn some new, fun recipes.

Jada Pinkett Smith is speaking her piece on the status of her marriage with longtime love Will Smith.

"While I was really living the dream, I hit a huge wall — a massive amount of depression.
