The trademark speed at which Rory and Lorelai speak in the Gilmore Girls franchise can be attributed to a globally loved bean juice (more commonly known as coffee). The two characters are seen frequenting Luke’s Diner for their regular cup of java throughout the series, which was on air from 2000 to 2007 and later revived for a season by Netflix last November.
While both the town of Stars Hollow and the character Luke Danes are fictional elements of the show, actor Scott Patterson — who plays Danes on the series — is turning art into reality by launching his own line of coffee, reports Hello Giggles. Prepare to freak out a little bit.

Brace yourselves, Starbucks fans — the coffee chain has a great summer “buy one, get one” special going on right now that will let you and a friend enjoy an iced beverage for the cost of just one drink.
The BOGO deal, which Starbucks is offering to celebrate summer, will let you receive a complimentary iced espresso beverage of equal or lesser value for free when you order a grande iced espresso beverage. The special will run at participating stores in the United States from June 27 to July 2. But the promo is only active during select hours in the day — 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. local time.

For close to a decade now Greek yogurt has been king of the dairy aisle. In fact, the creamy, thick yogurt reportedly accounts for nearly 50 percent of yogurt sales in the United States. But the next time you head to the grocery store, you might want to try something new. There’s another type of yogurt that’s about to change the way you do breakfast.

I firmly believe a good Fourth of July gathering is as much about the burgers and hot dogs as it is about the vast array of side dishes. A great pasta or potato salad, coleslaw, and a few extra things tossed on the grill all turn the party into a full-blown celebration. While you very well may already have your standard sides in order, this year bring a few new things to the spread. Here are 25 of our most favorite recipes from the archives.

If you treat your home kitchen more like a laboratory — always whipping up strange concoctions and experimenting with new ingredients (to mixed results) — you know having high-quality storage containers on hand is a must.
And while we’re fans of Pyrex container sets (and other similar containers like these), sometimes your food experiments require an easy-pour container. Enter: these Chef’s Star 16-ounce, swing-top glass bottles.

I honestly relish the opportunity to stay inside on a rainy summer day. While I am definitely an individual who can’t get enough sunshine, a break from blue skies can actually feel quite special. Sure, your barbecue may have to be rescheduled, but in its place you’ve got a welcome excuse to be a bit of a homebody until things clear up. From comfort food to baked treats to freezer meals, here are 20 things we love to busy ourselves with in the kitchen when the rain is coming down.

We love all the things about outdoor dining! All the things except for the annoying bugs that fly around us and all our food, that is. The biggest problem with outdoor entertaining is that while you’re enjoying nature, nature is also trying to enjoy your spread. How do you keep bugs, stray leaves, and other elements from getting into the food you slaved over pre-party?
