By Linda Cook,

2026-09-03

The City of Moline will re-stripe 18^th Street between 6^th and 7^th avenues on Friday, Sept. 4, to create one-way traffic and additional on-street parking.

After the work is complete, traffic will be northbound only. New one-way signs will also be installed along the block.

The new traffic pattern will allow for more on-street parking for nearby businesses and visitors.

Drivers should watch for crews, new pavement markings and signs while traveling through the area Friday. "The City of Moline thanks drivers for their patience as they adjust to the new traffic pattern," the release concludes.

According to the Arizona Weatherman, Wednesday and Thursday, 21–22 Oct 2026, will bring a very significant rain event and severe thunderstorms to parts of Arizona, driven by an incoming low-pressure system to the west and enhanced residual tropical moisture from the remnants of Trudy. Expect potential heavy rain, flooding, and severe weather in sections of the state. This is not a statewide event, but some sections will be hit harder than others.

This Common Weed Soothes a Cough Better Than Store Bought Syrup

Mullein is one of those tall, fuzzy-leaved weeds most people walk right past without realizing what it's capable of. It's been used across Europe and by Indigenous healers in North America for centuries specifically for coughs and irritated airways, and its soft, mucilage-rich leaves have a naturally soothing quality once brewed into tea. I keep it dried and ready every fall. 😊

The Cut of Meat Our Grandparents Knew Not to Overlook

Neckbones don’t get the attention of ribs, chops, or roasts, but generations of home cooks knew exactly what could happen when you gave them enough time. In the slow cooker, they have hours to become tender while seasoning the broth with deep, meaty flavor—the kind that makes a simple country soup taste like it has been simmering on Grandma’s stove all afternoon. Add hearty vegetables and you’ve got a steaming bowl built for cold evenings, stretched grocery budgets, and anyone who appreciates old-fashioned cooking where nothing useful went to waste. It isn’t flashy food. It’s the kind of meal where the rich broth and fall-apart meat do all the convincing.

Four Ingredients Make This Roast Fall Apart by Itself

A slow-cooker roast that practically shreds itself sounds like the result of careful seasoning and a long ingredient list, but this version needs only four ingredients to reach that tender finish. The slow cooker provides time and gentle heat, allowing the beef to soften while the simple seasonings concentrate into a rich cooking liquid. By dinner, the meat pulls apart beneath a fork and the entire house smells as though someone spent all day actively preparing the meal. The short ingredient list makes it realistic for busy mornings, limited grocery budgets, and anyone who wants comfort food without a complicated recipe. It is hearty, familiar, and impressive in the effortless way slow-cooker dinners often are. Few things feel better than opening the lid after a long day and discovering the main course already tender, hot, and waiting to be served.

Mississippi Mud Potatoes Are the Side Dish Everyone Devours

Mississippi Mud Potatoes coat tender diced potatoes in a creamy mixture of cheddar, cream cheese, and sour cream. As the casserole bakes, the sauce melts around every potato and the top develops bubbling, golden patches. Bacon can bring smoky crunch, while onions or green onions add savory freshness. The finished dish is rich, cheesy, and substantial enough to challenge the main course for attention.

I Was Skeptical Until I Cut the First Slice

Chicken meatloaf sounds like the sensible choice right up until garlic and Parmesan get involved. Then things change fast. This version bakes into a juicy, savory loaf with a golden exterior and plenty of cheesy, garlicky flavor running through every slice. It has the comfort of the meatloaf you grew up with, but without feeling like you’ve eaten the same dinner a hundred times. And that first warm slice? That’s the moment the ground chicken starts making a lot more sense.
