I make yogurt, but not every night. I use the mason-jars-in-a-cooler technique from Food In Jars: http://www.foodinjars.com/2012/04/homemade-yogurt-in-mason-jars and it makes enough for breakfasts, plus some tzatziki sauce. Nightly Ritual: Making Yogurt for Tomorrow's Breakfast |

We have the FORHOJA cart, and it's great! It's spacious with the two levels, that hold semi-often used kitchen appliances. The drawers are big enough for all of our wine stoppers and corkscrews. It also solved our problem of what to do with the manual pasta roller, as we clamped it right onto the side for storage and use. Wood Top Kitchen Carts: High & Low Product Roundup |

I'm a black coffee drinker...grew up drinking heavily-roasted Sbux coffee and loved it. Recently, when I tried coffee beans from a local roaster (roasted a lot less), I found that I enjoyed the cup far more. Now, even with their Blonde Roast, I still find Sbux coffee to be overly roasty-toasty and unappetizing. Are You Buying Bad Coffee? |

You could use heavy cream in some baking recipes that call for milk, to make it a little richer. I particularly like to use it when making scones. Homemade ice cream uses heavy cream along with whole milk as the custard base, so you could always give that a go. What Can I Make With Whipping Cream Besides Whipped Cream? Good Questions |

My husband and I love a variation on that tea called cream earl grey. It has vanilla and cornflower petals mixed in with the black tea, and the bergamot is very mild. We call it our "house tea", we drink so much of it! DIY Earl Grey Tea for Earl Grey Tea Haters (and Lovers, Too!) |

I made many a loaf of the eggnog cake, even using some of the batter to make cake pops for a regifting party. I turned a loaf into a smart gift for my boss by putting the wrapped cake on a rustic wooden cutting board and tying it up with twine. What Did You Cook Over the Holidays? |

When I moved in with my fiance (now husband), we each had a big butcher block knife set. We have a small kitchen, and the two ginormous wooden blocks took up a big chunk of the counter next to the sink. We bought two magnet strips and spent an hour on a Saturday morning installing them. It was like having a brand new kitchen, with all the free counter space! Function & Style: Magnetic Knife Strips Kitchen Inspiration |

I didn't know about sage tea, but I made many pots of thyme tea with honey when i had bronchitis. It definitely helped keep my coughing under control. I'm all in favor of herbal remedies, instead of popping pills. Sage Tea for a Sore Throat |
