Cracker Barrel’s Maple Street Biscuit Co. May Be Losing Steam Facebook By Amberly Mckee/Dec. 5, 2022 8:54 am EST Founded by Scott Moore and Gus Evans in 2012, Maple Street Biscuit Company has grown remarkably since its beginnings in Jacksonville, Florida.

The cube is a shape that we see in one form or another pretty much every day of our lives. This six-sided, 3D shape can make up everything from ice cubes and bricks to bars of soap and woodblocks. Because we see cubes in one way or another almost every day, you might think it would be really easy to draw one from memory. It can be harder than it looks, however, due to having to create a 3D shape on a 2D surface....

But with e-biking, I can get out daily, regardless of the heat; the wind generated from cruising around keeps me cool.

March Madness 2022 has many winners and losers. Sixteen teams advanced in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament between Thursday and Sunday, and they’re all winners. Forty-eight other teams lost, and in the coldest, cruelest interpretation of events, they’re all losers. You can look at the official NCAA bracket and see all of them. But as always, there are deeper stories beyond just who won and who lost. Below, I’ve picked out a few people, teams, and conferences who look especially good (or bad) after the weekend....

It’s no secret the U.S. boasts a seriously impressive multitude of museums. There are more than 35,000 peppered across the country, according to the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Depending on who you ask, these cultural institutions can get a bad rap for being too boring, stuffy, or outright elitist. But that’s certainly not always the case. There are tons of museums that house weird, wacky, and even wondrous displays that are anything but ordinary....

Pinecones are always a pleasant natural artifact that can be enjoyed when exploring the great outdoors! They may not be very fun to step on, but seeing them hanging from trees or lying on leaf-covered forest floors is always a delight.

Worry not, as it can be much easier than expected once you know what to do!...

It’s an argument you’ve probably had half a dozen times already: Should COVID-19 sport titles count? Here’s our two cents. Did you hear the one that goes: What do the Dodgers and Lakers have in common with Joe Biden? They probably wouldn’t have won without COVID-19 either. The NBA shutdown last March heralded the full-court disruption of many, many pleasures taken for granted in American life. But while barbershops were shuttered and concert halls converted to pandemic hospitals, the NBA and its co-leagues dutifully shouted “Game back on!...
