My Michigan Grocery Options

When I was a kid, I wanted nothing more than to be a contestant on “Supermarket Sweep,” a game show that culminated with people running through a supermarket at top speed.

Asian Broccoli Salad with Sesame Almond Dressing

I’ve been using (and eating!) riced vegetables a lot lately. They’re just so easy and convenient. They cook quickly, can be added to so many dishes, and best of all, good for you! (For more riced vegetable ideas, click here, here, and here.) So, here’s another recipe involving riced vegetables. This time, I used riced broccoli as the basis for a delicious salad.

I Pulled a Strange Can Out of the Back of My Cupboard, and Then I Opened It and Ate It

Bacon Jam is a Real Thing and It Is Delicious!

I was wandering an unfamiliar Trader Joe’s looking for the dog treats (for my main girl Maude) when I came across a positively bewitching product: BACON JAM! Is this a real thing?! It sure is!

It took me all of 10 seconds to decide to purchase it. That’s roughly the amount of time needed for me to
