I’ve learned many things about cooking, baking, and blogging since starting Trial and Eater. I thought it would be fun to share some of these bites of knowledge with you all. This is a constant work in progress! I’ve learned.. Balsamic is for drizzling. To triple check whether ingredients call for dried or fresh herbs (I once made an egg dish with 1/4 cup dried parsley instead of fresh – I was chewing parsley for days) How to wrap a nori roll (well, at least I’m better than I used to be) Tomatoes on the stove-top make a MESS. Hot toddies are a fun way to help ease a sore...…I’ve learned many things about cooking, baking, and blogging since starting Trial and Eater.

Raise your hand if you must have a cup (or 4) of fresh roasted coffee every morning! For decades now I need my fix – and if I don’t get it, it ain’t pretty. My college roommate once gave me a coffee mug that says “Instant Human – Just Add Coffee” after a particularly rough no-caffeine morning while traveling. (It’s still my go-to mug on Mondays). So I’m always on the lookout for great coffee companies. Fresh Roasted Coffee, LLC is one...…This post contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a small commission if you make a purchase after clicking on my links. All opinions are my own.

A review of Boarderie, the first nation-wide pre-arranged cheese and charcuterie board delivery service in the United States! I first heard about the company Boarderie a few months ago and I’ve been waiting for the right time to treat myself. I’m so glad I finally got one! Really it was an impulse buy because I heard they were going to appear on Shark Tank, and I wanted to get one before they had a mad-rush of orders! And, they are also the top foodie gift on this year’s list of Oprah’s Favorite...…There are affiliate links below. As an Amazon affiliate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

My favorite season is upon us and it’s not only because the weather is starting to cool down and leaves are changing, it’s because FALL ITEMS are here at Trader Joe’s! Most stores will have a special section with all their best seasonal items or new products. If you want to get in the fall mood with me, here are some of the best products to welcome in the new season. Pumpkin bread and muffin mix – since pumpkin bread is a seasonal staple. (Tip: Try using applesauce instead of oil like my pumpkin bread recipe.) Tortilla chips shaped like leaves?! Sign me up.
