During COVID, Jennifer and Adam Parker set out canned goods for neighbors in need. The couple never imagined that this gesture would soon lead to them giving away thousands of pounds of food each month

Their once-tiny pantry now feeds thousands!

Perfect!" Jennifer Parker said as her husband, Adam, finished tamping the ground around the post he'd set in the front yard of their Overland Park, Kansas, home. Then the couple stocked their makeshift “take one, leave one” library with books from their own bookshelves.

It was the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, and Jennifer hoped her books would help keep neighbors entertained. It worked. Almost immediately, people began coming to her library, borrowing books and leaving others on the front porch so Jennifer could sterilize them before putting them out.

“How can I help?” one neighbor rang her bell to ask, then a second and a third.

The Mary Tyler Moore SHOW

From That Girl in the 1960s to Ally McBeal in the 1990s to Sex and the City in the 2000s, television has long reflected the shifting image of independent women. Yet the true game-changer came in 1970, when The Mary Tyler Moore Show introduced Mary Richards—30, single, stylish and making her way in a newsroom full of men. Rather than being someone’s wife or daughter, she was the star, and she changed television forever. Join us for a look back at rare behind-the-scenes photos of the groundbreaking show as we celebrate its 55th anniversary.

Happy money, happy holidays

The holidays are here (yay!), and with them comes both joy and, let's be honest, stress. For many of us, the shopping lists, entertaining costs or the ache of an empty chair at the table can dim the sparkle of the season. If that's you, please accept my wishes that the days land lightly.
