I am a huge coffee drinker and spending hundreds of dollars at coffee shops was getting to be expensive, not to mention boring! So I started making coffee at home and buying all different types of coffee. Here are my favorites from over the years. I have added my favorite coffee makers and gadgets as well that help with the coffee experience. I don't know about you, but I love a great cup of coffee in the mornings before I start my day! Enjoy!

I prioritize food that is organic, lentils that are glyphosate-free, salt that is free of microplastics/dangerous lead levels, & watch for other heavy metals! Buying in bulk saves $$! (See my BPA-Free Food Storage Containers List for long-term storage options). Always soak dried lentils & chickpeas in water 24 hrs before cooking! I buy duplicate items from different brands to switch it up. *As an affiliate I earn from qualifying purchases at no cost to you.

Healthy dinner ideas fall apart on a Tuesday because the pan is wrong, the seasoning is thin, and there is no plan. This shelf fixes the three things a home cook actually touches every night: a knife that holds an edge, a pot that does the work while she lives her life, and a pantry seasoned like she means it. Nothing here is a gadget she will forget in a drawer. Build it once and dinner stops asking her for a decision.

Confession: Valentine's Day is not really my favorite. Both of my kids have food allergies, so any holiday where there's so much focus on food (especially candy) can provide a layer of stress for both me and them.

Hope this helps you as you prepare your own kid's Valentine's Day! Note: This list contains affilliate and cash back links.

We all have a sweet tooth, right? It's just about how you indulge that craving. For me, it was always about the gummy snacks that came into their own and then came to dominate the nineties and the aughts. It's these two decades that the sticky, stretchy and colorful confectionary really came into its own, and became a household staple for millennials. Distribution played a major role in the gummy genres graduation from Robin to Nightwing, and it's ability to stand toe-to-toe with the Dark Knight (chocolate), but it's also the range that we see in the gummy sector that's made it a favorite. Whether you're into sour, sweet, shapes, colors, themes, gel-filled or stretchy, there's something for everyone out there. That's why I keep a trove next to my bed. What's your go-to?
