Because we did not move this past weekend after all, we ended up with a bit of free time which we used to do some overdue purging. I’m sorry if this shatters your misplaced imagine of me as some sort of domestic goddess, but my signature move is shoving something into a closet and slamming the door before anything falls out and then willfully ignoring its pleas for mercy — come on, you do it too, right? anyone? Sigh. And so we dug out, removing three giant trash bags of stuff we should have gotten rid of a while ago, two of clothes and one of (shh, please don’t tell on us) toys.

Even though Whole Foods’ sales went up this past quarter, share prices have fallen dramatically.
With organic kale in every corner Walmart, and competitors like Sprouts growing, can Whole Foods maintain its hold on its loyal fan base of shoppers?
Summer desserts shouldn’t be complicated. Take some seasonal fruit, dress it up with something sweet, and commence the face-stuffing. This beautiful dessert combines goat cheese, store-bought puff pastry, honey, peaches, and a little black pepper. It is perfect in every which way.
Q: My neighborhood recently welcomed a new Sprouts market. Kitchn readers had mentioned Sprouts in other posts, but I’m not familiar with the store. I’m impressed by their prices, but I wanted to hear from the readers what their favorite things to buy at Sprouts are.

Back in 2008 Kitchn reader Deb bought a cottage in Chester, Nova Scotia that needed a ton of work. “When I bought the house the kitchen was a disaster and pretty gross,” she wrote to us. “The laminate floor, ancient appliances, lack of cupboards and brown paneling weren’t going to cut it.”
