Looking for a budget friendly dinner that tastes anything but basic? Chicken and Cabbage pairs warm spiced chicken with carrots and cabbage in one cast iron skillet. The vegetables cook in the chicken drippings and create their own golden sauce, and fresh lime ties it all together. Learn why the method works, how to store leftovers, and how to adjust the spices to your taste. Read the full recipe at The Good Plate: https://the-good-plate.com/chicken-and-cabbage/

  Halloween costumes and decorations do not need a craft store run. First, build a spider costume from black leggings and a long-sleeved shirt; knee-high pantyhose stuffed with bubble wrap and pipe cleaners become legs that bend. Next, turn the same black clothes into a Fashionista Cat Costume, where coordinated accessories do all the work. Finally, greet trick-or-treaters with a Halloween wreath; wired ribbon helps the bows hold their shape.
