Hello! I'm working on an article for HomeLight.com about
granite countertops. I'm looking for a designer to answer a few
questions. Below are my questions - if we use your
contribution, we will credit you and include a link to your
online bio. - When did the "granite craze" first begin? -
What was popular before granite? Was there a shift from laminate
to granite? - Is it still in high demand for kitchens and baths
today, or is it starting to go "out of style?" - Are there
certain colors/types/patterns of granite that are more popular
than others? i.e, is light granite replacing dark granite? - How
does quartz measure up to granite? Is it more durable or less
likely to stain? Any other benefits? - Do you recommend granite
as the top choice for countertops? What are the other surfaces
you typically use/recommend? Thanks!

Hello!
I'm doing a round-up of seasonal dishes/drinks at chains across
the country.
I'd love to have an R.D. chime in on what to be mindful of +
ways to make some of these -- yes, splurges -- healthier.
Here are a few jumping off points:
For instance, instead of a holiday latte is there a festive
syrup that you could swap in at Starbucks?
Or, over-the-top pancakes are a bit of a splurge, instead of the
added sugar with candy/festive toppings, how could people trim
back on this splurge? Or what could they order at a bakery or a
breakfast spot that might be a good alternative, but still
festive?
What about seasonal cocktails? Maybe that merry margarita is
full of sugar -- what's a fun cocktail order instead?
Thanks for your expertise!
