In light of Valentine's Day, Steve McKenna helps you find your real estate match:

"Of all of the homes you search online, all of the open houses you go to—very few will be compatible with you specifically. But if you are lucky enough to find a home that you’re happy with—you will have a lifetime of memories."

But I’m going to come out and say it: our public schools should not be serving chocolate milk every day. Or strawberry milk. One 8 ounce serving of those chocolate babies has 25 grams of sugar. And the kids who eat breakfast at school can get a double dose every day."
