5 Killer Recipes from Josi Kilpack’s Culinary Mysteries

We love these 5 "killer" recipes from Josi Kilpack's culinary mystery novels--they're simply "to die for!"

Sponsored: What Your Wardrobe Says about You

Everything you wear sends a message. Sometimes literally, sometimes not. A certain outfit could make us feel more dignified, more relaxed, or even more confident. You might pick one top over another because it’s just sending you that “wear me” vibe. But you’re not the only one getting a special memo from your clothes. The colors in your blouse and the cut of your skirt could be sending messages to those around you without any effort on your part. So what does your wardrobe say about you?

Mormon who just missed Olympics will compete in Paralympic Games

Paralympic sprinter Jason Smyth is going to the 2012 London Games with mixed emotions. The legally blind runner will happily defend his world records and the two gold medals he won in the 100- and 200-meter Paralympic events at the 2008 Beijing Games.

The problem with being a Massachusetts Mormon

The good news for Mitt Romney is that he avoided the perception of a total meltdown on Tuesday night, preventing (just barely) Rick Santorum from scoring a victory in Ohio, the day’s signature contest. Plus, Romney was the clear winner in the night’s delegate race, adding to his lead in the battle that ultimately matters the most. But Super Tuesday was still a failure for the former Massachusetts governor, who missed an opportunity to deliver a psychological knockout blow that would have convinced the political world to treat the GOP nomination as a settled matter.

Spaghetti and the Spirit: Everyday Miracles

t's the hubbub of a busy Wednesday night. Soccer practice is over, a quick dinner of spaghetti is bubbling on the stove, my oldest is reading aloud to me for homework as I cook, and my Baby Girl is pulling pots and pans out of the lower kitchen cupboards. My Man is racing home to be at the church to help with Boy Scouts, and I have Activity Day girls coming over. Miracles have to happen before 6:15 p.m. tonight. And that is when my middle child, Little Son, of 6 years old, comes over to ask me a very important question. His voice is worried.

Huntsman: 'Presidential contest not about religion'

Jon Huntsman Jr. talks about running for president as a Mormon in a Washington Times profile published Monday. "(Huntsman) is confident that the race won't turn on his religion and downplays whispers from evangelical Protestants who vow not to support a Mormon. 'These presidential nomination contests aren't about religion; they're about leadership,' Mr. Huntsman told The Times in the kitchen of his home in Washington's tony Kalorama neighborhood. … 'If it's about religion, I'll always come up short anyway.'"

Day 5: Play Name That Christmas Tune

By LDS Living

Pull out your Christmas music, or even better, sheet music if you play an instrument, and gather the family around for a game of Name That Tune. Play the first few seconds of a song (keep it a secret from everyone else) and race to see who can recognize and shout out the name of the tune first. Make it a challenge by guessing the artist as well.

Romney, Huntsman face challenge of winning over evangelicals
