You pack a perfectly good lunch at 7 AM and by noon the lettuce is wilted, the crackers are soft, and everything tastes like the inside of a plastic bag. I burned through so many flimsy containers before landing on ones that actually keep things separate, sealed, and fresh. This is for anyone who meal preps on Sunday or just wants their Tuesday salad to not taste like Monday's leftovers. Took me a full year of sad desk lunches to figure this out so you don't have to.

Whether I am sick or busy, cooking can take up just too much time. That's why I have these go-to meals in my back pocket.

Spent two years ordering $15 sushi rolls three times a week before I snapped and decided to learn. My first attempts looked like sad rice burritos. Took a lot of trial, error, and sticky countertops, but I finally nailed a setup that works. This is everything I actually use now, from the mat to the knife to the weird little garnishes that make homemade rolls taste like restaurant ones. If you've been thinking about making sushi at home but keep putting it off, just steal my list and skip the mess I went through.

All things 🍌&🍓 !! From brands to clothing I’ll give you some products I love in a unique way :) See below for WFF(weekly fun fact)🤓: In botanical terms, a berry is a fruit produced from the ovary of a single flower with seeds embedded in the flesh. By this definition, bananas qualify as berries because they develop from a single ovary and contain seeds (though they are tiny and not typically noticeable). On the other hand, strawberries are considered "aggregate fruits" because they form from multiple ovaries of a single flower.

As a local these are my favorite restaurants in NOLA that are consistently good

Eats, to-dos and shopping that made our trip to Maui unforgettable! These places will not disappoint!

Staring at a wilting bunch of cilantro you paid four dollars for and used once is a special kind of frustration. If you cook dinner most nights but keep throwing out herbs that went slimy in the fridge drawer, this system actually works. I buy herbs on Sunday, strip and chop them, pack them into ice cube trays with olive oil, and pop them straight into the pan all week. Took me a year of wasted grocery money to land on this routine, so steal it now before another bundle of basil dies on your counter.

Flour everywhere, dough stuck to the counter, bread that came out dense and sad — that was my every-weekend reality until I slowly swapped out the cheap stuff and figured out what actually works. If you bake at home and keep wondering why your results look nothing like the recipe photos, this is the lineup that finally closed that gap for me. Took me two years of sticky messes so you don't have to.
