While everyone else is getting hot and bothered about Kentucky Fried @beyondmeat and McPlant burgers, I was honestly more excited about the new plant-based chorizo at @chipotle. I finally took the plunge and grabbed some in the name of science.

Stuffed dates are always a popular treat, but have you tried stuffed prunes? It's a very similar experience but dried plums tend to be even juicier with a luxuriously soft bite. I like to pair that with toasted walnuts for a crunchy contrast, but really any nut will do. They also have a deeper, less intense sweetness that is a relief when I'm suffering from sugar fatigue after too much baking. Ramp it up to the next level with a drizzle of sriracha for that perfectly satisfying, spicy finishing touch. Snack happy!

What's the best Girl Scout cookie and why is it always Thin Mints?

Winter hits like a brick around here. It was 82 degrees when I look Luka for an afternoon walk yesterday, and the numbers reversed themselves to 28 when I woke up this morning. I know much of the country is buried in snow and ice, so I'm entirely grateful it's not that bad. That said, it's still a struggle to account for such a huge disparity overnight.
