When I moved to Oregon, I didn’t know anyone. I rented a room from a family, and they invited me to join them for Thanksgiving. I felt uncomfortable about it until the matriarch put me in charge of the mashed potatoes. Through this small role, by being helpful, I suddenly felt a sense of belonging. […]

I maintain a delicate balance of disgusting decadence and pristine health. But, my perfection would not be possible without a few strategic vitamins.

We’ve covered why you should write reviews of products and businesses. But, we can’t all be Consumer Reports or Cook’s Illustrated.
