Switch Trunking

If I have two switches with one VLAN is it better to trunk two ports on each to link them together, or will a single cat5 cable do if I'm sure the 1gbs ain't gonna get saturated.

I'm no network engineer, but my understanding was to always trunk between switches.

Sounds more like you are asking about LAG's? multiple connections between them running LACP or just a single connection?
