After the quiet winter months, spring heralds the return of longer days and gathering over leisurely meals. The best dishes for those get-togethers are the ones that feel celebratory enough to serve to guests, but are simple enough to ensure you’re not spending all day in the kitchen. These three cheery mains — a salad that can be prepared in advance, a one-pot seafood stunner and a versatile grilled chicken — remind us that with the right recipes, hosting doesn’t have to be stressful. These recipes can be served alone for low-key occasions, but for a particularly memorable meal, make all three. The clams are a lovely yet rustic first course, to be followed by the chicken as a hearty centerpiece and the salad as a refreshing side dish.

☆ Biden Administration Pushes to ‘Get the Lead Out’

Environmental groups and others have been pushing for years to strengthen regulations that require utilities to reduce lead in drinking water. Photo: Rogelio V. Solis/Associated PressThe Biden administration wants to require utilities to replace all lead drinking-water pipes across the U.S. within the next 10 years, the biggest push in decades by the federal government to eliminate lead from the nation’s tap water. The Environmental Protection Agency made that proposal public Thursday, as part of a series of proposed regulatory changes involving lead in drinking water. More than nine million households receive water through lead service lines, the pipes that connect water mains to homes, the agency said.

It is the strongest overhaul of lead rules in more than three decades, and will cost billions of dollars. The Biden administration has previously said it wants all of the nation’s roughly 9 million lead pipes to be removed, and rapidly. Lead pipes connect water mains in the street to homes and are typically the biggest source of lead in drinking water. The Biden administration says investment is vital to fix this injustice and ensure everyone has safe, lead-free drinking water. A home with dangerous lead levels can be next to a house with no lead exposure at all.

But it’s a looming catastrophe for New Orleans, where officials estimate that tens of thousands of the city’s water pipes are made of lead. Many residents aren’t even aware they have lead pipes supplying their drinking water, said Jessica Dandridge, executive director of the Water Collaborative of Greater New Orleans. Dandridge’s organization works both on water quality issues around the city’s lead pipes and stormwater management and flood control, and they are one of BlueConduit’s local partners working to map the pipes. As a result, lead drinking pipes are all over the country; some national estimates say the total number of pipes is around 9.2 million.

The flooding around the Mapocho river has also cut off routes leading towards the Pacific Ocean, hitting families who live on its banks and leaving small towns isolated. This led authorities to declare a "red alert" and order preventive evacuations in various towns in the south of Santiago. "This is the worst weather front we have had in 10 years," Santiago metropolitan area governor Claudio Orego said. The flooding of the Mapocho river has also affected parts of the busy route that connects Santiago with the key port city of Valparaiso. In mountainous tourist areas around the Maipo river, authorities have since Thursday been moving residents out of their towns due to the risk of landslides and further flooding.
