That day, Briggs had uncharacteristically decided to wear a sleeveless dress, leaving a rose-shaped birthmark on her upper arm exposed. Th

11、e woman asked Briggs if she had seen a doctor about the birthmark, and when Briggs assured her that she had, the stranger persisted. “She pressed me and said, When? I had to stop to think.

Once youre a grown-up raising kids,

17、 that bag full of candy might be the scariest part of Halloween whether its concern about a potential sugar rush, worries of parenting perfectionism or diet culture anxiety.“It makes sense to be scared, because weve been taught to be scared,” said Oona Hanson, a parent coach based in Los Angeles. “S

28、We discovered that although it is dangerous to other plants, it is a super food for animals in terms of nutrition. The content of crude protein in it is nearly equal to that of bean plants,” he said.“Feeding goats with this plant is like people eating hong shao rou (a famous Chinese meat dish braise

29、d pork),” said Xiang.The other advantage of using Canadian Yellow Flower to feed goats is that it reduced Xiangs farms costs by 40-50 percent.
