Hi Roseville! October is here, and there's already some pretty unique stuff happening around town. World's Worst Expo returns with more than 100 vendors, a true-crime speakeasy is taking over The Grounds, and local chefs are showing off what they've been working on at the Roseville Rising Culinary Showcase. But the biggest news might be what's coming: plans for a massive surf resort just outside Roseville have officially taken another big step forward.

I Almost Threw Out My Keurig. It Wasn't Broken.
Every cup from my Keurig started tasting weak, flat, stale — so I unplugged it and stuck it in a closet. Then I learned the dirty secret of grocery store K-Cups: by the time a pod reaches your kitchen, it's usually spent months going from factory to warehouse to truck to shelf. The flavor oils are long gone. Some brands even over-roast to hide it.
The fix wasn't a new machine. It was fresh pods from Angelino's, a family-owned L.A. roastery that roasts, packs, and ships within 3–5 days — straight to your door, from 39¢ a cup. Over 1,000,000 happy customers. 50+ flavors, no subscription required, and 15% off your first order, applied automatically at checkout.
