Summer is around the corner and Trader Joe’s is launching a line of sparkling wines that will likely be the “it” drink of the season. Called Simpler Wines, the Italian sparkling wines (vino frizzante in Italian) come packaged in pink and blue cans. And like most things that come from Trader Joe’s, this wine is cheap. Like, really, really cheap. Four cans will cost you just $3.99. It’s basically the new Two-Buck Chuck.

Whatever the main course that’s on the menu tonight, a side of potatoes is almost always a good idea. My favorite way to enjoy them is simply roasted, but that can take upwards of an hour and I usually don’t have that time to spare on busy weeknights. Luckily, there are plenty of potato recipes that are just as tasty and take a fraction of the time to cook up. Here are seven we love.

We know: If you could, you’d spend your entire paycheck on your mom for a stellar Mother’s Day gift. This is your mom we’re talking about! But it’s life and we all have bills and expenses and all that other not-fun stuff. So you need to set some sort of budget. How does $70 sound?
If that works for you, we’ve got plenty of gifts she’s sure to love. If you can spend a little more, then just get her everything on this list!

If the idea of chopping another onion or mincing another clove of garlic makes you not want to cook tonight, there might be a smart kitchen tool to help you out. This mini food chopper does all the work for you and doesn’t take up a ton of space in a tiny kitchen (like a food processor). Right now Amazon is having a sale on a highly rated food chopper. You can get the one shown above for just $12, whereas it normally goes for $36. That means it’s close to 70 percent off right now.
