My Tous les Jours Trip. Top Story - December 2025.
As someone who lives in a rural area, I don't get the chance to visit fancy restaurants or bakeries that often. So, when a friend told me about a French-Asian bakery that's less than an hour away, I knew I had to check it out and grab some pictures for social media. Tous les Jours ended up providing an immersive experience that went above and beyond my expectations--although I did leave with a few reservations.

My Honest Adagio Tea Review
I hadn't bought tea from Adagio in a while, but their card program struck me as the perfect opportunity to try new blends. I waited until I'd accumulated several cards, then added a few samples to my cart--including Thai Tea and Mocha Nut Mate--and placed my order. When the pouches of loose-leaf tea arrived, I thought I'd write a review to help you find the perfect blends for your cabinet.

Your Smoothie King Menu Guide
Smoothie King's menu is fairly extensive, and with newer additions like loaded toasts and smoothie bowls, it can be a lot to take in. As a frequent visitor, I thought I'd take the time to write a menu guide that outlines the categories and customization options. I'll also throw in some observations and advice that I've accumulated along the way.

5 Foods that Taste Better the Next Day
Lately I’ve started to make more food than I need so that I can enjoy the leftovers the next day. It’s time efficient and works well with my busy schedule. What I didn’t expect to find was that somehow certain foods tasted better the next day rather than on the day they were cooked. The flavours seem deeper, the textures mode delicate, and the overall quality of the dish wasn’t altered. Here are 5 foods that I’ve noticed tasted better the next day.

Red Velvet Cake was never meant to be Red
Red Velvet Cake is a moist sweetest red-dish dessert that has ever been tasted. However, Red velvet cake wasn’t meant to be the color red. Red velvet cake is not red due to insufficient or poor-quality food coloring, using the wrong type of cocoa powder, or incorrect oven temperature and acidity balance. The cocoa can overpower the color, so using a high-quality red food coloring, natural (not Dutch-processed) cocoa, and an acidic liquid like buttermilk is crucial, as is baking at the correct temperature. In the 19th century and into the early 20th, bakers described certain cakes as “velvet” simply because their crumb was more delicate than traditional cakes. These cakes often used cocoa powder (or almond flour or cornstarch) instead of rich chocolate bars or heavy flourIn its original form, red velvet’s reddish hue was subtle, a warm, slightly reddish-brown the result of natural cocoa + acidic ingredients + baking chemistry. That version of red velvet was defined as much by its texture (“velvet” crumb) and mild cocoa flavor as by its color. When some of these early “velvet cocoa” or “mahogany” cakes used cocoa powder plus acidic ingredients (like buttermilk or vinegar), bakers noticed the result — a cake with a faint reddish or mahogany-tinged hue. Over time, as recipes evolved and merged with darker cakes (like devil’s food), what we now call red velvet emerged.

My Honest Beecher's Macaroni and Cheese Review
I'm not necessarily new to Beecher's. I'd seen their macaroni and cheese in the Walmart frozen food section, and while I'm always on the lookout for new mac and cheese varieties, the $11 price tag always scared me off. Plus, I was a little skeptical of the "World's Best" title on the box. How good can a box of frozen pasta really be?

The Standards of Buffalo Wild Wings Has Collapsed
Buffalo Wild Wings once held a steady identity. Families filled the booths without hesitation. Older couples made Tuesday nights routine. Amish households treated the place as a small weekly destination. Pastors used it as neutral ground for conversation.

Top 10 Chocolate Covered Fruits That Make the Perfect Treat
Something lovely happens when fruit meets chocolate. It’s almost like they were meant to find each other. The chocolate melts just enough to hug the fruit, and together they make something that feels both fancy and fun.
