Plants to help with snoring?! Seriously? Snoring is something no one wants to talk about, but we all know what it's like to have a night owl next to you.

Luckily, there are plants that can solve this problem elegantly, naturally, and above all, silently. We're not saying that you'll miraculously stop snoring, but the air in your bedroom will definitely be more pleasant and the snoring will be noticeably quieter.

There's something mythical about a hotel bed. It's like climbing into a cloud that's been hand-ironed, scented with freshness, and disinfected with angel dust. Then you come home and curl up in sheets that look like they've survived a fight with a cat and been doused with lemonade. The difference? Not just in luxury, but in practicality. Hotel secrets are actually surprisingly doable at home—without an industrial washing machine and without a lady with a stroller. So - how do you wash your sheets so they look like they came from the Ritz-Carlton and are as soft as the Waldorf Astoria.

How many times have you tossed and turned in bed, staring at the ceiling and counting sheep, squares on the wall, or even ex-lovers who kept you awake?

Sounds a little sexier, right?
