Ah, the joys of bottomless brunch. Paying a flat rate for endless mimosas while having a long gossip over eggs Benedict is exactly how many of us love to spend our Saturdays.

After refill number four we sway in our chair, doze off into our porridge, and end up tipping 50% because math is too hard. In short, not a very successful brunch.

How To: Sync Reading Lists & Cloud Docs on Your iPhone into a Single Audible Playlist
Audiobooks are great because they require little-to-no effort on your behalf. When driving in traffic, why not listen to George R.R.

Ingredients 101: Toasting Nuts Is a Necessary Evil & Here's Why
People tend to skip toasting nuts in recipes or before adding them to salads because it seems time-consuming and the margin for error is high. However, skipping this step is a big mistake. Why?

Alton Brown recommends wok-frying peanuts before making your own nut butter for this very reason.
