Get Mouth-Watering Meals with Factor_ and Save $120 Off Your First Order

The sizzling summer heat is here, and it’s going to persist whether you work all day, or have the day off. Even if you’re working from home, preparing a delicious and healthy meal can be quite the task. It means you’ll be prepping your food, and cooking, possibly even adding to all of that summer heat inside your home. But what if there was a way to get delicious, mouth-watering meals, right to your doorstep? We’re not talking about meals you have to unpack, section out, and prepare. No, these are gourmet-chef prepared and cooked meals — all you have to do is heat them and enjoy! That’s what Factor can deliver, and you can save up to $120 off your first order when you use code DT120OFF at checkout, because their Prime Day deal is still live until August!

Picture this. It is a hot, hot summer night, and you just got off work. You are ravished and ready to eat everything in your pantry, but you should probably prepare a healthy meal instead. That would mean selecting a recipe, prepping the ingredients, cooking, and then eventually, cleaning up the mess, including your dishes. That’s not exactly the best way to spend a summer evening, now is it? Even if you like to cook, it’s a lot. So why not try a meal kit delivery service?

There are other meal kit delivery services, sure, but nothing like this. Factor will send you gourmet-chef-prepared and cooked meals, of your choosing, and when they arrive you can either put them away, in the fridge, for another night or heat them and enjoy a delicious meal! With comparable services, you get the ingredients, but still, prepare the meal yourself. That’s not the case here.

You are saving valuable time, that you would otherwise spend prepping and cooking meals, but also you can enjoy your summer more. Plus, since the oven and burners aren’t staying hot for long, you’re not heating the inside of your home making things muggier. Moreover, you can kick back and enjoy your dinner with much less work involved. Perhaps even with a cold beverage in hand?

Let’s recap. With Factor, you’re saving precious time, you’re getting a delicious, gourmet meal, and you can actually enjoy your summer nights, especially if you end up working late. But what kind of meals might one expect? What is there to choose from? If you want to review what sort of chef-prepared meals Factor offers, you can take a peek at .

Factor’s menu features over two dozen selections, each one designed by a dietician, and with new selections every week. After signing up for your plan, you can select which meals you want to be delivered from the weekly menu. You can also customize your delivery plan to your dietary needs. Factor offers meal kits for vegans and vegetarians, low-carb and ketogenic dieters, those looking to reduce their caloric intake, or a combination of these. You could even make a case that meals with Factor are better than homecooked.

Bear in mind, that the meals rotate regularly so these may not be available when you peek, but some examples include herb-crusted chicken, a jalapeno popper burger, a Greek beef bowl, chipotle-rubbed pork chops, chorizo chili mac, and much more. We are not kidding when we say “delicious, mouth-watering meals,” and seriously, you might want to have a bite to eat before you order! Don’t forget to use code DT120OFF at checkout to save $120 on your order.

Summer in a bottle might be Elysian Brewing’s new blonde ale
Elysian Brewing Lemon Daydream.

The west coast brewery scene has been busy as of late, dropping seasonal beers in time for warm weather. The latest? A lemon-kissed blonde ale from Elysian Brewing in Seattle.

Say hello to Lemon Daydream, a 4.9% ABV offering that's something of a hybrid. A bit like a shandy, a bit like a lager, the fruit beer is citrusy and offers refreshing tangerine notes. It's made with Idaho 7 hops, beloved for their punchy characteristics.

Flying with beer? Here’s how to pack alcohol in your luggage
Learn how to do this right with this packing guide
Packing a suitcase

If you're anything like me and can’t resist picking up a few bottles of that amazing local wine or craft beer while you’re traveling, you’ve probably faced that moment of panic when it’s time to pack. Maybe you went a little overboard at a vineyard in Napa or filled half your suitcase with IPAs from a cool little brewery you stumbled upon. No judgment -- been there, done that. Honestly, local beer and wine make some of the best souvenirs (and gifts, if you don’t end up keeping them for yourself). Here's the big question, though. Can you bring alcohol on a plane?

The short answer is yes. Like with anything else in life, there are rules, and it's important to know them before you head to the airport, including how much and what you can bring. If you're flying with beer or wine, it's also essential to know how to pack the alcohol for the flight. There’s nothing worse than a bottle of red wine breaking in your suitcase and staining everything, or a broken beer bottle making your luggage smell like yeast right before a long-haul flight. With a few smart packing decisions, your beer or wine will be safely waiting for you at the baggage carousel, wherever your final destination may be.

That's because Star Trek Spirits, the official spirits brand of the Star Trek franchise, is collaborating with Stellum Spirits to launch two limited-edition whiskeys.
