Are you planning a trip this summer? Perhaps taking advantage of some of the cheap airfare deals to Europe? This past February, Norwegian Airlines announced $69 flights to Europe from select destinations in the United States. And just this morning, I was reading that Latvian airline Primera Air will be offering flights to Europe for as low as $99 each way.

What’s the catch? Well, everything costs extra, including the food. That’s nothing new, you might say, but consider this: A “premium beef meal” on Primera Air will cost you $45, while a “cold breakfast” is roughly $15. We’re not 100 percent sure what either of these offerings entail, but we’re pretty sure we’d be better off making and packing our own food.

From a bright and lemony pasta that will add some zip to your flight to frittata breakfast sandwiches, here are 10 homemade meals to bring on your next flight.

It’s a mistake that could happen to anyone — anyone who can’t read or is not paying attention while shopping in the produce aisle. A man purchased what he believed to be cubed cheese only to find he bought diced butternut squash. His frustration upon finding squash instead of cheese is a universal sentiment that can be felt by cheese-lovers around the world.

The shopper took his fight to the supermarket to get his return. Witnessing the quest is bystander James Dator, who chronicled the event on Twitter, only for it to go viral.

It’s nice to have goals to work towards; it’s even better when they begin as fantasies of perfection. Picking the perfect peach is one such goal whose roots begin in our collective imagination. But the perfect peach, with its custardy sweetness and scent that smells like sugar and sun, isn’t so much fantasy as it is elusive. They do exist, however, and you can find them, but like most hidden treasure, you have to know when and where to look, and you have to be a little patient.

Picking the perfect peach is an exercise in your senses. So much of it may seem obvious once it’s gathered in one place but, these choices desire to become habits, and soon second nature. So the next time you go the market to buy your peach, lift it to your nose for a deep drag of its scent and a gentle squeeze along the way, all while taking measure of its yellow color and rosy flush. Learn this choreography of picking the perfect peach by heart, and you can do the dance of picking the perfect peach all summer long.
