Book Review: West End Earl by Bethany Bennett
Review copy provided free by the publisher Ten years ago, to get out from under the thumb of her uncle Milton, Ophelia Hardwick took her brother Adam's identity and has been living as a man just until she can come into her inheritance. She's an employee and confidante of Calvin, the Earl of Carlyle,…
We Tried Trader Joe’s Corn and Cheese Arepas
Trader Joe's Corn and Cheese Arepas. They come two to a box, individually wrapped, and I opted to bake them in the oven. I should have gone the stovetop route to get that nice browning on them. And I know you're gonna ask...yes, you can probably throw these in the air fryer and get better…

And that's exactly…
What to do with Trader Joe’s Matcha Noodles (aka Soba)
I don't typically buy green tea soba, even at the Japanese market, but when I saw it at Trader Joe's, I figured why not. I tend to make cold noodle dishes and salads with soba, though of course you can use them in soups and stir fries. Yakisoba is basically a Japanese version of chow…
