As a wine writer and consultant, wine regularly arrives on my doorstep as press samples or wines from clients I am working with. I am one of those annoying people on social media, posting photos of myself with glasses of gorgeous wines in some of the most sought out wine regions in the world, with captions like, "It's a tough job, but someone's gotta do it." Needless to say, when I complain about work, I don't get a ton of sympathy. But, being a wine professional is more grueling than it sounds. Let's just say tasting 50 different California Cabernet Sauvignons back-to-back before 10 a.m. while judging a wine competition is nothing short of exhausting.

Anger is a strong emotion that we all have sometimes. However, some zodiac signs are highly sensitive to other people’s character and their environment. They easily react when someone agitates them.

Some of the best Italian-style subs come from small delis with seriously good ingredients, freshly baked bread, or old family recipes for meatballs and marinara. High-quality ingredients are crucial to a great sandwich, and in a meatball sub, it's unsurprising that juicy, flavorful meatballs are the stars of the show. Marinara sauce is a classic topping, although some shops switch it up with unique takes on tomato-based sauces. Cheeses like provolone, mozzarella, Parmesan, or Romano work well on meatball subs, and some restaurants even include multiple varieties all melted together perfectly.

The rise of the air fryer back in the late 2010s absolutely changed the cooking game. Not only does this countertop contraption "fry" foods without the use of oil, but it has also become useful for cooking everything from chicken to frozen waffles to even steak. Air fryers are versatile, easy to use, and generally affordable, but they're not great for every food — including fried dough or any kind of batter-based treat, such as funnel cake, due to its pre-cooked liquid state.

Why You Can't Make Funnel Cakes And Fried Dough In The Air Fryer

In most cases, stoneware is a solid choice for dishes and pans and the like: It's sturdier than porcelain and less porous than earthenware. It can usually go into the dishwasher, the microwave, or even the oven without any trouble (specific cookware will have specific instructions about this). However, it's not designed for everything. A general rule of thumb is to avoid placing any stoneware cookware anywhere on an electric stove.
