Often an overlooked element, the introductory pages to a book tell the reader everything. You find out what the book is about, why the author is writing it and who it is for. You meet the author and get a feel for the book. Introductions set the tone and flavor of the book and can make the difference in whether someone keeps reading it or leaves it on the shelf.

Food is highly personal. Talk with anyone about food, their favorite restaurant or the best thing they ever ate, and their eyes light up with excitement. As they detail the taste, the dish, the setting, their “food voice” emerges. Coined by Annie Hauck-Lawson, a professor at the City University of New York, “food voice” is the way you engage with food to assert aspects of your identity. You develop your food voice as you create new recipes and dishes and try different cuisines.
Suit up! Despite its rather lackluster finale one year ago (still salty over that one), the television show “How I Met Your Mother” still holds a place very near and dear to my heart. “HIMYM” taught me the correct way to pick up someone at Midtown, it showed that “revertigo” is alive and well, and most importantly, a lower-back tattoo of a butterfly is not a good idea. So whether you’re watching from your couch or at your own version of MacLaren’s, get ready for a night that will be LEGEN — wait for it — DARY.

Modest Mouse’s new album, “Strangers to Ourselves,” had been eight years coming, and it finally arrived March 16. With so many years since its last studio album, expectations were high.
There is a lot of comfort and satisfaction to be found in a bowl: the creamy, soothing bowl of oatmeal bathing in a pool of maple syrup, dried fruits, salty, crunchy nuts and cream; the hot, nourishing bowl of clear chicken broth to nurse the sniffles and banish away the rain and dreary clouds; the filling bowl of pasta coated in a rich tomato sauce with juicy meatballs and salty, cheesy parmesan. This is a bowl that at once restores and energizes, soothes and satiates.

Music festivals have basically become a staple for summertime adventures. Although we still have about five weeks until the semester ends, festival veterans know tickets are already selling out, and preparation for what’s to come starts way in advance. Keep in mind you might need a hotel, it’s going to be really, really hot, and you’ll probably forget to pack something when you put it off right before leaving. Whether you’re traveling far to attend one or just sticking to Florida-based festivals, this guide will help you know what to expect.
Six years, 121 episodes, 700-plus musical numbers, numerous casting changes and one quarterback: Fox’s groundbreaking musical dramedy “Glee” has made statements, stumbled along the path and ultimately found its footing in something that has remained with the show from beginning to end — heart.
While we’re all used to shows like “House of Cards” and “Orange Is the New Black,” it’s about time we pay our respects to one of the earlier Netflix binge-watching extravaganzas: when the fourth season of “Arrested Development” premiered on Netflix after being canceled in 2006. While the fourth season took some adjusting to — even Gob might not have watched it on a dare — the cult classic holds a special place in our hearts nonetheless. So, for all those who miss watching possibly the worst family in America and need a way to justify failing exams, here’s a game that’ll leave you saying: “I’ve made a huge mistake.”
