I really appreciate the local and fresh fruits / veggies but can't always justify the cost. Do you frequent the farmers market in your neighborhood? Is there a certain stand or product you go for that you can't find anywhere else?
There's a never ending number of options every time I go into the store.. I think they're a great snack but I end up not liking whichever ones I get half of the time.
So please share your favorites with me and what store if possible!
It's always so hard to decided unless the entire table is in agreement. Even if you're dining alone all of the apps usually sound good. What's your go-to appetizer?

I've never had this many thoughts about cereal before but I would like everyone's opinion, please and thank you!

Summer is taking off and picnic season is upon us. Whether it's chips and sandwiches on the beach or a full spread under the sunset, what are you packing in your picnic basket for maximum flavor and convenience?
I think favorite ice creams are personal to everyone... what are you reaching for in the freezer isle or ordering at the creamery counter? Bonus points if you call out your least favorite as well.
Anywhere in the world, any type of restaurant... what's been your favorite or most memorable restaurant experience? Maybe it was the people you were with, a once in a life time dish, or a service experience that changed the way you view it all.
Whatever the case, I'm going to take the answers and use them to help me figure out my next travel destinations.

There's an endless number of incredible spicy foods and dishes from around the world. Everything from buffalo wings to mapo tofu always has my attention. What spicy foods do you love? What spicy foods do you think take it over the line?
I'm always listening to some tunes when I'm cooking and it tends to carry over into eating as well. I'd love to know if anyone has specific playlist or favorites they put on while in the kitchen or at the table.
Bonus points for adding whatever else you're listening to most right now - I'm looking for new music.
