While rice is the staple that’s cooked in households across Kashmir, bread is what drives the local community and economy. With so much traditional knowledge guarded and passed down through generations, Kashmir’s bread culture could qualify for a UNESCO intangible heritage listing and possibly rival France’s boulangerie tradition. Her father hailed from Kashmir so for her, summertime equals Kashmir, and Kashmir equals a warm, pillowy girda. When she returned years later, to learn more about Kashmir’s bread culture from her neighborhood baker, she was promptly told off. “Bread is really sacred in Kashmir and that relationship that a family has with their local kandurwan is really special.

Andrew Garfield and Sesame Street's Elmo recently tackled an emotion rarely discussed in children's programming: grief. In the clip, Garfield discusses missing his late mother, who died of pancreatic cancer in 2019. "She passed away not too long ago, and you know, I just miss her," he tells Elmo. When the Muppet offers his condolences, Garfield reassures him that feeling upset or grieving someone is OK. "That sadness is kind of a gift," Garfield says. "Both at the beginning and at the end there is such an emphasis on listening," Cormier says.

Andrew Garfield has inspired renewed discussion online about grief and emotion after a video of him opening up to “Sesame Street’s” Elmo drew millions of views on social media and an influx of support. “Elmo’s going around Sesame Street checking in on everybody,” Elmo told a smiling Garfield. “So, Elmo wants to know how Andrew’s doing?”With some encouragement from the Muppet, Garfield revealed that he’s been thinking about his mom. About a week before his conversation with Elmo, Garfield candidly discussed grief during his appearance on an episode of The New York Times’ “Modern Love” podcast. I feel like the feeling, the longing lives in all of us: the longing to connect, the longing to love, the longing to risk.”

☆ Eat iron-rich foods with those high in vitamin C—and 2 more essential food pairings to maximize your meals
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-26 | by ( Renée Onque | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +3 min

While it's important to have a diet of nutrient-rich foods, how you eat them is essential to getting the most benefit. And when you eat plant foods high in iron with foods rich in vitamin C, you're able to absorb more iron. "People who don't get enough calcium and vitamin D throughout life have an increased chance of having thin and brittle bones (osteoporosis) in their later years," according to Kaiser Permanente. And "your body needs vitamin D to absorb calcium." The source of vitamin D you'll receive from the sunlight can help you get more calcium, Perez noted.

WASHINGTON — Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday again confirmed that she once worked at McDonald's, pushing back against former President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly claimed she never worked there. "Part of the reason I even talk about having worked at McDonald's is because there are people who work at McDonald's in our country who are trying to raise a family," she said. A spokesperson for the Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Harris' remarks. Trump has also insisted that Harris' anecdote about having worked at the fast-food chain is a "fake story." During Wednesday's interview, Harris said: "My mother raised my sister and me.

Digital health company Noom on Thursday announced it will offer a compounded GLP-1 drug as part of a new weight loss product that starts at $149. Noom has offered weight loss programs for years, and consumers can already try to access those branded medications through its platform. Compounded GLP-1 medications are typically much cheaper than their branded counterparts. Most insurance plans cover GLP-1s when they are used to treat diabetes, but coverage of the weight loss drugs is less widespread. Consumers can get started with the Noom GLP-1 RX program by filling out an intake form on the website.

☆ Credit expert: You have 'dozens and dozens' of credit scores, but they should all have one thing in common
▼ + stars: | 2024-09-10 | by ( Cheyenne Devon | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +1 min

The idea that you only have one credit score isn't true. In fact, it's one of the biggest credit score myths people consistently fall for, says John Ulzheimer, a credit expert who formerly worked for FICO and Experian. "You literally have dozens and dozens and dozens of credit scores that are not all the same three-digit number," he tells CNBC Make It. Unfortunately, the difference in numbers can cause confusion or even mistrust if you're not aware that you have multiple credit scores, Ulzheimer says. "But really, they're not doing anything wrong, they're just pulling a completely different credit report."
