I wanted to find out where Walmart's beef comes from, so I visited a Walmart store in Oregon to see what information I could find in the beef department and the packaging. Earlier this week, I published an article on NewsBreak sharing about where Kroger has been sourcing its beef from - Where Kroger Is Getting Its Beef From Right Now - Here's What to Know. I have been wondering where other grocery stores are sourcing their meat from as well. So I went into a Walmart store in Oregon this morning to see what I could find.

Learn about an apple variety that is super crisp and firm that I am getting at apple orchards over Honeycrisp this month. It took a long time from when the Crimson Crisp apple was first bred until it was available to be grown commercially. It was first developed in the 1970s by the PRI (Purdue, Rutgers, and Illnois) co-operative. It wasn't until 2006 that the apple was released for growers. That is a long time in the development process. You don't get rich quick by developing a new apple variety!

Honeycrisp has been one of the most popular apples for years, but now Cosmic Crisp has come along to give it a run for its money. I've had both many times and am sharing what apple I would buy for sweetness, texture, price, and more.

Lemon balm is one of the most well-researched herbs for cold sores out there, it's actually been shown in clinical studies to reduce healing time and calm symptoms fast when applied right at the first sign of a tingle.

A sprawling ocean disturbance moving toward California could temporarily raise coastal water levels by several inches, increasing the potential for flooding and beach erosion as fall turns to winter.

These three-ingredient lemon bars prove you don’t need a long shopping list to make something that tastes sunny, sweet, and completely dessert-worthy. Each square delivers bright lemon flavor with a soft, tender texture and just enough sweetness to balance that citrusy tang. A light dusting of powdered sugar can make the tops look bakery-ready, while the centers stay moist and luscious underneath. They’re the kind of simple lemon treat that tastes especially good chilled, when that fresh citrus flavor becomes even brighter and every little square feels like a cool burst of sweetness.

Devil's claw is a spiky-fruited plant from southern Africa, and its root has long been a traditional remedy for pain. It's also one of the few herbs tested in real trials for low back pain, which makes it worth knowing about if you deal with flare-ups. 😊

Magic crust custard pie earns its name by accomplishing something that feels almost impossible: a simple batter separates as it bakes, creating a delicate crust and creamy custard center without rolling or fitting pastry dough. The top becomes lightly golden while the inside stays soft, smooth, and gently sweet. Nutmeg or vanilla gives the filling its familiar old-fashioned aroma, and the thin crust provides just enough structure to hold a clean slice. It is an ideal dessert for anyone who loves homemade pie but would happily skip the most intimidating part of preparing one.

A sheet of aluminum foil on the oven floor might seem like an easy way to catch bubbling cheese, pie filling and other spills. But appliance manufacturers warn that this cleanup shortcut can create a fire hazard -- and, in a gas oven, a risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Waking up with a stiff neck is the worst. You can barely turn your head, and the last thing you want to do is wait for a heating pad to warm up. This is the little roll-on I reach for instead. 😊

Mullein is one of those tall, fuzzy-leaved weeds most people walk right past without realizing what it's capable of. It's been used across Europe and by Indigenous healers in North America for centuries specifically for coughs and irritated airways, and its soft, mucilage-rich leaves have a naturally soothing quality once brewed into tea. I keep it dried and ready every fall. 😊

Mississippi Mud Potatoes coat tender diced potatoes in a creamy mixture of cheddar, cream cheese, and sour cream. As the casserole bakes, the sauce melts around every potato and the top develops bubbling, golden patches. Bacon can bring smoky crunch, while onions or green onions add savory freshness. The finished dish is rich, cheesy, and substantial enough to challenge the main course for attention.

Soft, buttery, and gently sweet, these old-fashioned tea cakes fall somewhere between a tender sugar cookie and a pillowy biscuit. Butter and sugar are creamed until light, then enriched with eggs and vanilla before flour, baking powder, and salt form the uncomplicated dough. They bake quickly, developing lightly golden edges while remaining pale and soft through the center. The flavor is simple in the best possible way, carrying the sort of homemade warmth that makes an heirloom recipe feel instantly familiar even when you are trying it for the first time.

Coconut cream dream cake layers soft cake with creamy filling, fluffy topping, and plenty of coconut flavor. Moisture settles into the crumb, giving every slice a lush texture that feels rich without becoming dense. Whipped topping keeps the finish light, while shredded coconut adds a delicate chew and immediately announces the tropical flavor. Served cold, the cake is refreshing enough for summer but comforting enough to earn a place on holiday dessert tables.
