Fall is full of natural transformations. Two shifts are guaranteed during this season: slightly cooler weather and rich, vibrant leaves in red, orange, and yellow hues. And while trees fill landscapes with warm tones, their leaves eventually drop as autumn transitions into winter. The first rule of thumb when it comes time to care for the fallen leaves on your lawn? Rake them the right way, at the correct times. “The leaves that fall on your lawn can be beneficial when collected properly or turn into a harmful lawn enemy if ignored,” Matt Blashaw, a lawn care expert, TV host, and licensed contractor, says....

This week on Martha Bakes, she’s baking a plum upside-down cake alongside guest Becky Courchesne, a pastry chef and the co-owner of Frog Hollow Farm in Brentwood, California. The family farm is renowned for its stone fruit and the small-batch preserves Courchesne makes with the pristine plums, apricots, peaches, and nectarines she gets onsite....

Developed by a Minnesota nursery in 2004, the deciduous shrub (meaning it sheds its leaves in the fall before becoming dormant) is a lush ball of pink, blue, or white petals with glossy leaves, and their dark green foliage takes on a burgundy hue in the fall....

But after a few washes—and maybe some less-than-perfect folding of the dreaded fitted sheet—that previously perfect set of sheets can turn into one big jumble of fabric. Multiply that by a house-full of beds, and it’s easy to understand how a linen closet can become one big mess....

Today, homemade soaps can be crafted with the same natural, skin-nourishing ingredients as your go-to store-bought varieties. But does the art of soapmaking feel daunting?...

candied citrus fruit Credit: Chelsea Cavanaugh Do you have a recipe that calls for candied citron, and are you wondering what it is? It’s not candied lemon or grapefruit peel; a citron is an actual semitropical fruit that’s similar to a lemon but with thicker skin. To make candied citron, the citron is blanched in water, boiled in sugar syrup, and dried. It lends a mild floral note to fruitcakes, panettone, and other such confections....
