Editor's Picks

A few of my faves just in time for sweet summertime in Skagit when the bounty abounds (and so do the bugs). Sensational salted butter for your next dinner (and probably every dinner), sake for sippin’, and a meal-making main from our very own Deli. And finally, clean up takes shape with the cutest towels.

SssstingStop

I once counted over 100 mosquito bites on just my legs. Oof. I’m a mosquito magnet, and this stuff is a magic salve – a homeopathic insect gel that actually relieves itch (and helps me sleep at night without too much clawing). Yesss!

Lucky Dog Sake

A juice box for adults! I like to have a couple of these on hand for takeout sushi nights. They’re frivolous, tasty, and the dog is a cute character to wave at in the fridge.

Co-op Deli

Pork Chili Verde

My new go-to! Juicy pork and hearty beans with just the right amount of spice. I top mine with half an avo, a sprinkling of Fresh Gourmet’s Crispy Jalapenos, and sour cream. Also excellent with Tortillas Con Madre or on rice.

Kitchen Towels

If you missed the frenzy this spring, these beauties flew off the shelf, and for good reason! They’re made from post-consumer recycled materials with trademarked Geoweave technology for super-absorbency, fast-drying, and excellent cleaning.

Au Sel de Mer Butter

If you don’t know what TikTok is, that’s fine. But you do need to know about this butter, which was trending on TikTok earlier this year. Sea salt crystal flake-infused French butter. Enough said. Divine on our rustic sourdough.
