This isn’t a list of pantry basics or must-have staples—this is about flavor finds. The kinds of herbs and spices that surprised me, delighted me, or instantly made themselves at home in my kitchen. From the mountains of North Carolina to the tropical tastes I fell in love with in South Florida, each pick has a story and a spark. You’ll find local blends with a cause, gourmet indulgences from specialty markets, teas that change color, and spices that bring the smoke without the fire. Some I grow, most I buy, all are well-loved—and I hope at least one becomes a new favorite of yours too.

I have been (mostly) gluten-free for nearly 4 years now. I am not celiac; however, I definitely have a gluten intolerance of some sort. I am able to make my own bread from scratch with minimal gut issues, which has allowed me to still remember what good bread tastes like. Because of this loophole, I think it makes me qualified to know what a good gluten-free product tastes like, and if it is truly comparable to the real thing. Also, I live in the middle of nowhere, where gluten-free items can be difficult to find. So anywayyyy there's my backstory and credentials- now here are some of my favorites that I have found at my local Target and Walmart!

Charcuterie and other grazing boards are an ideal appetizer for entertaining. Often, they can be prepared and served to your guests swiftly. Building a visually appealing board begins with a solid foundation, which, of course, is a beautiful vessel. Many boards can be assembled without cooking, and with the right ingredients, they can provide a complete meal. As a widowed empty nester who often eats alone, it’s important to me to not only present myself with an appetizing plate but also one that’s aesthetically pleasing. Many of the boards I create for myself are served from unconventional vessels. I frequently thrift for mismatched antique tea cups or other oddities that allow me to create a beautiful presentation. You’ll find some sources to purchase gourmet food and boards here, but I also encourage you to use your imagination. Almost any shallow vessel will work if you take the necessary precautions to ensure it’s food-safe. Although edible flowers are not easily sourced, they make a lovely addition to the boards, as well as strategically placed herbs and greens.
