Hello July! Camille’s Letter from the Editor

There’s something about being near a body of water that immediately makes me feel about 100x more serene.

Happy summer weekend! The official first day of summer may not be for a few more weeks, but as far as I’m concerned, Memorial Day kicks off all the summer vibes I need to wholeheartedly embrace it. It’s an extra special one around here, as I became an aunt for the first time yesterday! My […]

Grilled Octopus with Almond, Pepper & Raisin Chutney

I’m obsessed with grilled octopus and whenever I see it on a restaurant menu, I have to order it. But I’d always been a little intimidated to make it at home, until I read my friend Gaby’s recipe for octopus tacos in her genius new cookbook, and decided to try it myself. I couldn’t believe […]

A Beachy Memorial Day Dinner Party

The countdown to summer has begun, and I consider Memorial Day weekend to be the official kickoff. This year, since my birthday happens to fall the day after, we’re inviting friends for a dinner party on the back patio with food coming straight off the grill and a “bare feet required” dress code. When our […]

The One Email Hack That’s Helped Me Be More Present

We talk quite a bit around here about cleaning up our social media habits in order to be more present, healthy, and not fall prey to the rabbit hole of the endless scroll. But during a recent 48-hour “digital detox” (more on that soon), I realized how much of my mental energy is also consumed […]

What I’m Reading & Notes from Mother’s Day Weekend

Morning, friends! Hope y’all are having a wonderful weekend. Ours has been full of lazy hours by the pool with the kids, running errands around town, and sunset rosé with a few good friends.

Roasted Beet Tostadas with Avocado Crema, Goat Cheese & Pepitas

photos by Hannah Haston It’s hard to describe life in Austin without mentioning tacos. The two are basically inseparable, and since it’s not out-of-the-question that I might start a day with breakfast tacos and end it with fajitas, you could say that I’ve gotten pretty good at putting fresh twists on the classics so that […]
