Jelly Belly Mini Bean Machine
The Jelly Belly Mini Bean Machine; our very own personal candy machine!
by mismamac
Pros: attractive nostalgic machine dispenses mini jelly beans; operates with/without coins; heavy cast-iron
Cons: none
When I was a kid I thought it to be such a huge treat when my mom or dad gave me a penny or dime for a candy, gum ball, or plastic ring machine.  Now those machines take a quarter, fifty cents and some take a whopping dollar!  Despite ...

2 Bxs Celestial Seasonings Candy Cane Lane Holiday Tea
"Candy Cane Lane" By The Two-Pack: Not Enough Value To Stock Up This Way!
by wlswarts
Pros: Great taste, Nothing bad in it
Cons: No saving the environment with this multipack, Caffeine-free!
One of the real nice things about the holiday season being here again has to be the appearance of Celestial Seasonings' holiday tea lines back in stores! I'm actually going to try a new-to-me flavor in a little bit, but one of the holiday standards I ...

Krusteaz Wheat And Honey Complete Pancake Waffle Mix
Krusteaz Wheat and Honey Pancake Mix is a quick and delicious solution for breakfast
by caitlinnib
Pros: first ingredient - whole wheat flour, no trans fat or any kind of oils, yummy!
Cons: contains enriched bleached flour as second ingredient, not available online anymore
It does not often happen that both of the words “quick” and “healthy” end up in the same sentence. Most products that claim to be both of these aren’t nearly as healthy as you would think. Krusteaz Wheat and Honey Pancake ...

Slick Nick Winter Ale
"Slick Nick" Winter Ale - Lift A Cold One To The Long Cold One
by rkingfish
Pros: Lip-smackin' dry hoppy finish makes me happy to crack open another.
Cons: That other may be difficult to find - even when the winter winds whip.
Like the amateur psychologist, I know just enough information about most things to make me appear alternately wise or just plain foolish. At times, I’ve succeeded in juggling both traits simultaneously. As for familiarity with brewed spirits, I was ...

La Chouffe 750ml
No gnomes were harmed in the making of this ale.
by bkalafut
Pros: Full flavored, balanced, evolves in bottle.
Cons: Very high alcohol.  Expensive.
La Chouffe's painted label prominently features a gnome resembling the "garden gnome" featured in Amélie; duly enough, my Oxford-Hachette dictionary translates "Chouffe" as "Gnome".  This strong bottle-conditioned golden ...

by bkalafut
Pros: Creamy but not buttery, very clean and lively citrus, aromatic, well-structured.
Cons: Cork closure.
Older American cookbooks and references call all wines in this style "white Burgundies" and make but parenthetical note of the varietal from which they are made: Chardonnay, sometimes quaintly called "Pinot Chardonnay".  Now this genuine White ...

Abita Christmas Ale
A Bit of N'Awlins in Your Stocking

Pros: Malty, hoppy, drinkable.
Cons: Won't bowl you over.
One of the things that I really love about Thanksgiving is, well, Christmas. Not so much the Black Friday thing, mind you, which many see as the kickoff of the Christmas shopping season. That's a bit too commercial for me. But in our household, although ...

Saranac Season's Best
The winter equivalent of Oktoberfest: Christmasfest!

Pros: Strong, spicy flavor (for a lager); smooth; not too heavy
Cons: Should've been nuttier and/or roastier; a little too dry
We all know about Oktoberfest beers, but what about Christmas-fest beers? Saranac seems to have created their own style with their Season’s Best Nut Brown Lager. This is a malty beer with a mild flavor not unlike the Oktoberfest style, only this ...

Schokinag Extreme Dark European Drinking Chocolate - 12 ozs.

by jackai
Pros: Velvety, dark hot chocolate hits the spot
Cons: Mixing instructions yield questionable results
Ask anyone what they most want on a bitter, cold winter day, and chances are they'll say hot chicken soup, a shot of bourbon - maybe even a slanket - but survey says the number one answer will always be a steaming cup of hot ...

Cons: More expensive than chips and not as easy to find in stores.
We first saw the LesserEvil Krinkle Sticks Classic Sea Salt flavored snacks at Costco. We liked the idea of a baked snack that was lower in fat than regular chips. We also thought the shape (they look like krinkle cut fries) was fun. We bought some. ...

I've never been much of a vodka, gin, rum or beer drinker. When I was old enough to drink (and even before I was old enough to drink..haha), I was attracted to fruity, sweet drinks. This is probably because I really never liked alcohol much and ...
