Duke's Mayonnaise Pin

I can still remember the day in early December. I was doing my typical online grocery shopping, and there it was, something I had heard of for years but had never actually seen — Duke’s mayonnaise. Long-lauded by my Southern friends, I had wanted to try it for years but could never find it — until now. I was intrigued. 

I can honestly say that it lived up to the hype. It added a fresh taste to everything I used it in. And I used it a lot! I posted my love for it on Facebook, talked to my friends about it. I was obsessed.  

Want to learn all about my newest obsession, Duke’s mayonnaise? How does it taste? How does it compare to Hellman’s?

Benefits of family-style meals

We’ve long heard of the benefits of having family meals. It’s the one time of day that everyone can come together and relax a bit. According to The Family Dinner Project, “over three decades of research have shown that regular family meals offer a wide variety of physical, social-emotional and academic benefits.”

Despite all of the benefits, recent reports state that only 30 percent of families have dinner together. Schedules don’t always meet up, and people are tired at the end of the day. Cooking dinner is just another chore. But it doesn’t need to be! Dinner time can be the part of the day that everyone looks forward to, the time where family members reconnect and relax. A big part of that is a family-style meal. It takes a bit of pressure off the cook and even has some unexpected benefits for families.
