You know how much we love our pets. We're always looking for ways to make their lives happier and healthier.
Recently on "Living Today," pet behaviorist Arden Moore joined me to share her insights into our pets' behavior. Among her tips and ideas:
Posted by Dionne VictorOn Homegrown, Sandy Gluck from Everyday Food joined Andrew once again to discuss and answer questions about gardening and food, as well as their favorite heirloom tomatoes. These sometimes clumpy treats come in an array of colors and make for a great tomato sandwich. An heirloom tomato is one that has been cultivated for at least 50 years.
Sandy's favorite is Purple Cherokee, while Andrew likes the pale yellow Big Blonde and his favorite, Sun Gold, is a tangerine-colored cherry variety that's really sweet.

We all look forward to vacations, but I don't know anyone who looks forward to packing! Martha has lots of tips but there's always more to learn!
As I prepare for a 12-day trip to South America, I'm trading in my makeup bag for my first-aid kit. This trip is so different from my past vacations. I need to fit everything into a tiny suitcase, and I'm not quite sure where to begin.
Posted by Dionne VictorIt may be a bit unconventional, but changing the colors of your hydrangeas is not out of the question. One of our Homegrown listeners called in and asked just that question: How do you change blue-green hydrangeas into that perfect shade of pink.
Posted by Alexis TiradoThe Martha Stewart Living Radio staff always have something to talk about -- especially our beloved pets. At least once a week, I find myself going into Jocelyn's (our managing editor) office to talk shop about dogs. Jocelyn is a pet expert and always answers my random pet questions.
Do you adore your pet, too? Since you don't have Jocelyn in your office, you can always tune in to Sirius channel 112 every weekday to listen to our pet experts. View our schedule to see when our experts are on air.
Between all of our staff members we have a lot of pets. So I decided to create a photo gallery of our pets. That's Mimosa on the right, my giddy golden retriever!
Enjoy our photos!

Are you familiar with the drink dark and stormy?
It's made with ginger beer and dark rum, and it seemed like the perfect combo for a marinade. Turns out it was great for pork butt, an unctuous cut of meat, for this week's Sandwich of the Day.
And to top it off, a coleslaw made (thanks to listener Sandy Lyke of Charlotte, North Carolina) with Duke's mayo. Packed in rolls, it's a perfect sandwich. All you need is a side of chips.

If you have a dog with long, floppy ears like mine, you know how hard it can be to keep them clean.
Spaniels, like my English Springers, have long-haired, drop ears. Other breeds with drop leathers include Bloodhounds, Basset Hounds and Cocker Spaniels.

The final selection for "Living Today's" summer book club is "Rosewater and Soda Bread."
It's a novel by Marsha Mehran that tells a fascinating story of three sisters from Iran who escaped during the revolution in the late 1970s and settled in a small Irish town.
This novel is the follow-up to Mehran's first book, "Pomegranate Soup," and involves intrigue, romance, and a touch of a mystic mystery.
