You might have noticed that CBD oil has become a hot item lately. CBD, or cannabidiol, is a cannabinoid extracted from hemp, that can be found today in everything from coffee and tea to oils and creams. If you are curious about this unique product, or if you’re already on board and are looking to stock up on some CBD on the cheap, then now’s a good time: Now and through the entire month of May, Sunsoil is offering $5 off your first order when you use promo code: MANUAL.

Not only is the hemp organically farmed and naturally processed; they also practice sustainable agriculture and are proud members of 1% for the Planet, a global movement to donate 1% of their annual sales to environmental causes.

There are so many cannabidiol products on the market today, it can be hard to know where to start. Sunsoil’s liquid CBD Drops are a great option if you’re new to CBD. Liquid CBD oil is one of the most popular ways people take cannabidiol today due to its simplicity, purity, and ease of use. Sunsoil’s product line includes CBD Drops in four different varieties — chocolate mint, citrus, cinnamon, and unflavored.

If you’re looking for convenience, Sunsoil also offers its CBD oil in easy-to-take soft gels or vegetarian capsules . They also make CBD Coconut Oil , which is perfect for cooking, topical use, making CBD-infused coffee (if you’re into that), and pretty much any other application for which you’d use coconut oil. All of Sunsoil’s CBD products are full-spectrum, made from organic hemp they farm in Vermont , and are quality-tested by third-party labs .

What differentiates Sunsoil from other CBD oil brands is its commitment to providing the highest quality control for its products. Sunsoil’s farms and processing facilities are USDA certified organic. And since they own their process from seed to shelf, Sunsoil can price their CBD products affordably while maintaining rigorous quality control.

Sunsoil is offering you $5 off on your first order with the promo code: MANUAL. This promo code is valid until May 31st, making right now the perfect time to try out CBD for the first time and/or to stock up on some high-quality, Vermont-made organic cannabidiol products.

The white oak tree is in danger, and so is bourbon — here’s what the industry is doing about it

We're making more white oak barrels than we can sustain

Bourbon barrels

If you’ve ever looked into the process of making whiskey (specifically bourbon), you know that there are a lot of rules and regulations, but (on top of the ingredients themselves) there are few steps more important than the aging process. Equally invaluable is the actual wood the bourbon is matured in. While some distillers experiment with other woods for extra aging and finishing, white oak is the only acceptable barrel for straight bourbon. This is why it’s so discouraging to learn about a new report that says that whiskey makers are starting to run out of viable trees.

Something must be done quickly, or soon you might either not be able to get your hands on your favorite bourbon — or you’ll have to pay an uncomfortable amount to get it. You still don’t understand? Let’s start with a little refresher about what makes a bourbon.
How bourbon is made
While whiskey (spelled ‘whisky’ everywhere but the United States and Ireland) is made all over the world from Scotland to Taiwan and everywhere in between, you can only make bourbon in the U.S. America’s “native spirit” is also governed by a few unflinching rules and regulations.

A chef gives us the secret key ingredient to make perfect fried chicken (and the one step most people get wrong!)

The secret to perfect fried chicken is simpler than you think

Fried chicken

Beautifully executed fried chicken is, perhaps, one of the few perfect things we get to have as human beings. Its warm, crispy, decadently crunchy crust with a hot and steamy, sinfully juicy, rich, and savory center is enough to make most grown men weep with pure joy. This classic dish is arguably one of the most important staples of American cuisine, and the pressure to get it right can be intense. The good news is, no one knows how to make fried chicken better than Chef Trevor Stockton, of The Restaurant at RT Lodge, and he graciously agreed to be our guide with a few of his best tips.

Chef Stockton shared with us the secret to perfect fried chicken, and the answer is a simple one. "The most important thing, other than using a quality chicken, is using quality buttermilk," he said, adding that he uses Cruze Farm Dairy buttermilk, which is churned and not homogenized. "If you can get your hands on real churned buttermilk, it will give you nice tender chicken because it still has all of its original qualities. We season our chicken very simply and then cover it with the Cruze Farm buttermilk for a minimum of 24 hours."

This is the perfect 4 course apres ski dinner menu

Yeah, you'll pass out afterward, don't worry

Friends eating around table

The term après-ski, made popular in the Alps during the 1950s, brings with it a certain air of sophistication and expectation. Gorgeously furnished, rusticly chic mountain lodges, complete with roaring fires and expensive cocktails, come to mind. The faintest sound of Sinatra crooning from well-placed hidden sound systems, clinking glassware, and lilting laughter coming from tables full of old friends and older money seems to be the very soundtrack of the term après-ski.
Of course, with this ambiance comes beautiful cuisine. What is après-ski without perfect dishes? Dishes that must be elegant yet satisfyingly hearty to the youthful yet exhausted skier or snowboarder. Dishes that - if prepared by yourself and not the personal chef - must be simple enough to make with a glass of wine in one hand and friends gathered in the kitchen.
This is the perfect après-ski menu for just such an occasion. These four courses are balanced, comforting, and elegant, perfect after a day on the mountain.

Is it indulgent? Yes. Do you deserve it? Also, yes.
