These ready-to-hang photo tiles feature a magnetic mounting system that lets you straighten, rotate, or swap out frames with ease. The back of each TilePix frame is fitted with a magnet, which corresponds to a peel-and-stick magnetic pad you mount to the wall. Once the frame is attached to the pad, you can slide or rotate it in any direction without taking it off the wall. And since the wall pads measure about 4 inches square, you have a ton of room for error when mounting them to the wall....

What Are Microgreens? Microgreens are vegetables and herbs grown from seeds and harvested at the seedling stage when they have only their seed leaves and before their true leaves develop.

How to Cook Beef Tenderloin Roasts There’s more than one way to cook that whole beef tenderloin (aka beef loin or tenderloin roast).

How to Prepare Beef Tenderloin Roasts First, trim any fat and silver skin (the thin, pearlescent membrane running along the top of the tenderloin) from the tenderloin....

What Does Paint Primer Do? Primers are formulated to adhere to the substrate and create a uniform surface for the finish coat. Primers stick to the surface; finish coats stick to the primer. This type of product penetrates unpainted surfaces, smoothing out any porosity. Primers for wood, whether they are latex or oil-base, contain specialized ingredients that topcoats don’t always have (or have in lesser amounts). Stain-inhibiting tannin blockers or preservatives that are found in primers, for instance, are designed to soak into raw wood and seal it so the tannins don’t bleed through and stain the finish paint....

What Is Plant-Based Meat? Obviously it’s made from plants, but what ingredients actually go into a plant-based meat product? Ingredients vary brand to brand, but producers of plant-based “ground beef” figured out how to replicate the texture, aroma, and taste of meat using plant proteins derived from soy, peas, beans, rice, and wheat. Beet juice, pomegranate fruit powder, and other fruit and vegetable extracts imitate beef’s pink color. Coconut oil and cocoa butter add pockets of white marbling....

And you might want to increase that frequency once you know what’s living inside your car. A 2014 study on bacteria found in car interiors looked at 11 high-touch areas of your car, and found the dirtiest spots to be the steering wheel, gear shifter, door handles and window switches, and the center console or beverage holder area. Not to mention, steering wheels were almost four times dirtier than public toilet seats (cupholders and seatbelts harbored more than twice as much bacteria), according to the same CarRentals....

Growing cacti and succulents from seeds is a very similar process. Even so, you’ll want to research the germination time for each variety, so you don’t remove them from the growing soil too early. It’s a good idea to consider the germination time for growing succulents from seeds for the type you purchase. Also, sunlight and temperature need monitoring when growing succulents from seeds. The moderate temperatures of spring and fall allow for optimal growing conditions....
