No fruit screams summer quite like watermelon and, given that it’s 92% water, it’s a great one to load up on to avoid dehydration if you find it tough to meet your daily water requirement.

Quick, easy cooking hacks for summer!

Anyone who knows me knows that I don’t like to cook. In fact, I moved into a new apartment six months ago and I still don’t have a stove or oven…and I have a huge kitchen!! Thanks to the Zoku, however, I can make myself an inexpensive, healthy snack and it’s not burdensome.

I’m not a big drinker, but when it’s hot and muggy, who doesn’t love relaxing on a rooftop or in a backyard with a refreshing, ice cold drink? Brownie points if they’re made with fresh, in-season fruits.

San Francisco specialty foods company Just Cook is a “mom and pop,” all-natural, artisanal brand that makes a line of gourmet spice rubs. They’re awesome for someone like me who hates to cook. Left to my own devices I’m stuck with either bland food or dishes covered in calorie-heavy sauces.
