I was always a fan of mason jars, but this year I was given 20 odd flats of mason jars and I wasn’t sure what to do with them. That’s when I decided everyone I knew was getting a holiday mason jar this year, so here are some great holiday mason jar recipes we can both try.

When I was asked to head down to Best Buy HQ to take the HP Sprout for a test drive, I grabbed my Star Wars action figures and got ready for some serious 3D scanning. If this computer has been on your radar over the past few months, check out my review of the amazing HP Sprout.

The big countdown to Christmas is on, and if your holiday shopping list is a mile long,  there’s never been a better time to find out what’s new at Best Buy this month.

I didn’t get into coffee until I was 28 years old, but I’m really making up for lost time. I’m such a fan that when the De’Longhi Dedica Pump Espresso machine and Burr Grinder showed up at my door for review, I felt like I was unwrapping a Christmas present. It’s been giving me the gift of great coffee every day since.

Out of all of the holiday traditions at my house, there’s one I look most forward to during the holidays. Making a Yule Log is fun, delicious, and can be really challenging if you’ve never done it before, but once you’ve tried one you’ll want to make one every year.

I’ve gone through a serious appliance drought after living through a 5 month renovation, and now that my kitchen is finally ready for tile/paint and I can almost start really cooking and baking again, I was ready, willing, and so happy to try out all of the amazing KitchenAid attachments. This week I tried out 4 of KitchenAid’s most popular attachments, and I know these would make a great holiday gift for any KitchenAid fan.

Are you ready for the holidays yet? If the answer is no, don’t worry: I’ve got a great list of small kitchen appliances rated by Best Buy customers that anyone will be happy to receive this year.

There are only 40 baking days until Christmas. Are you ready? Nope, neither am I, but you’ll be one step closer if you get baking some holiday bread this week.

The word ‘dessert’ usually isn’t synonymous with the word ‘healthy’, but you get the best of both when you make your dessert with the Yonanas Dessert Maker. It whips up delicious soft serve from frozen fruit with no extra sugar or preservatives.
