If you're anything like me, you stroll through the produce aisle saying a prayer of wisdom while you go. Why? You usually have not a clue what is the best fruit or vegetable, what is in season or out of season, what prices are good, etc. However, since subscribing to Epicurious these last few months, I've upped my score in the freshest food ingredients, and therefore better tasting dishes.
I just learned this technique earlier this summer, and I have had some really good success with it. Prior to knowing how to pick the perfect watermelon, it was a hit and miss adventure.

DoTERRA essential oils are potent and pure – tested and proven by a third party called Source to You. Check them out here:
