Attention all germaphobes: We hate to break it to you, but there are probably some spots in your kitchen that you’re forgetting about during your regular cleaning sprees. Even if you’re the type of person who gives your sink a good scrub and rotates out your sponge on the reg (gold star!), there are definitely still some unexpected areas that could use some TLC.

We recently had a summer happy hour at the Apartment Therapy Media offices, with cocktails served up by guest bartender (and ATM staff member) Michael Kuhn. When I went to get a drink, I noticed he was shaking up his delicious gin-and-basil concoction in a BlenderBottle. Having been unable to locate a cocktail shaker, he improvised with the shaker cup, which gave me a major moment of inspiration.
What else could you use a BlenderBottle for?

Ina Garten has the most gorgeous life. I thought I envied Ina’s fancy French range, or her huge collection of Le Creuset French ovens in Dune, but that was before I saw her library — and now I’m positively drooling.

I am not sure which is more tried and true when it comes to weeknight cooking: a trusty skillet dinner or crowd-pleasing chicken. It really doesn’t matter, though, because if you bring the two together you have easy eating at its very best.
These 10 recipes come together quickly in a single skillet and many of them are complete meals. From a saucy French mustard number to sticky-sweet firecracker chicken, here are the recipes to know.

Who: Lodge Manufacturing
What: Seasoned cast iron and seasoned steel cookware
Where: South Pittsburg, TN
Lodge Manufacturing has been in business since 1896, and they are the oldest manufacturer of cast iron cookware remaining in the United States. The company continues to make classic, long-lasting skillets and other tools in a manufacturing process honed by both age and necessity.
I took a tour of the 122-year-old company’s plant in South Pittsburg, Tennessee, to see how its popular line of factory-seasoned cast iron is made. If you’ve ever wondered just where your cast iron skillet came from, come along and see!

We really need to eat more vegetables. The vast majority of us are not eating as many vegetables as we should be, and most of us know it too. The obvious answer to the problem would be to cook one of the many delicious vegetable-heavy recipes out there more often. But that’s not working, and because of that we now live in a world in which broccoli coffee exists.

Our friends at Apartment Therapy talk a lot about hard-to-kill houseplants, especially when it comes to really dark homes that don’t get tons of natural light. You probably know about cast iron plants, the ZZ, and the sansevieria. But here are a handful of often overlooked plants that you might not have realized do well in low light — and don’t remind you of the doctor’s office.
If your kitchen doesn’t get a ton of light, it’s definitely worth giving these a shot.

Not everything about the 21-Day Challenge and its mission to change your body and life is easy. But today’s something is.
I’m announcing the grand prize for this Challenge today because—well, why not start things with a bang.
This year’s grand prize might just be the biggest I’ve ever given away, and I know Grok would be all over this package if he could.
The Grand Prize:
Butcher Box has been a favorite meat source for MDA readers, and they’ve generously offered up an entire year’s worth of their meat boxes to the lucky winner. But that isn’t all. To offer you all the marinades and condiments you’ll need to enjoy these goodies, I’m throwing in a Primal Kitchen® “Build-Your-Own-Dressing/Marinade” 4-Pack and our brand new Organic Unsweetened Ketchup and Organic Spicy Brown Mustard every month for a year.
Folks, I’ve been a Butcher Box fan (and proud affiliate) since their beginnings. Their commitment to ensuring animals were humanely treated and never given hormones or antibiotics won me over (along with thousands of other happy and well-fed customers). I can’t say enough about their grass-fed and -finished beef, their free-range, organic chicken, and their heritage breed pork. It’s what I serve at my own table, and I’m grateful to partner with them for our community Challenge grand prize.
The winner will choose among curated monthly meat boxes or a standard size select-your-own option. We’re talking everything from baby-back ribs to flank steak, whole chickens to premium bacon, NY strip to top-of-the-line roasts. That’s $1788 of the highest quality, naturally raised meats and poultry for you and your family. Together with Primal Kitchen dressings and marinades as well as condiments, that’s a total prize package worth over $2300!
BONUS: Get FREE Bacon for life when you sign up for Butcher Box by 7/8/18, and FREE Primal Kitchen Ketchup when you grab a Primal Pantry Kit by 6/13 with code MDAKETCHUP.

In the grand scheme of kitchen tools, your blender doesn’t need a whole lot of TLC. I’d say it falls somewhere between a cast iron skillet and an ice cube tray on the scale of neediness. That’s not to say it doesn’t need any special attention, because it does. In fact, there are two mistakes you might be making that will keep it from working smoothly (excuse the pun).
Here are the two worst things you can do to your blender.
For now classes are 6pm and 640pm at 2840 Wildwood st in the Boise Cloggers studio.
