12 Ways to Make Greener Shopping Choices

As most of us make efforts to clean up our diets and be a little kinder to the environment in the process, it’s also important to consider the products we’re putting on our bodies and bringing into our homes. Today’s post, in partnership with Seventh Generation as part of our Living Green series, is all about the simple […]

Mango & Coconut Soba Noodle Salad

I’ve made some version of this soba noodle and mango salad for the past few summers and, without fail, people go nuts over it. Full of thai flavors like lime, peanuts and a profusion of herbs, it’s really the crunchy coconut throughout the salad that takes it over the top and makes people stop and say, […]

The Breakfast Recipe That’ll Save Your Morning

Not sure why it took me so long to hop on the overnight oats bandwagon, but now that I’ve discovered their brilliance, I’m fully hooked. For the uninitiated, making overnight oats requires little more than stirring together a few ingredients then letting them sit in the fridge overnight, and when you wake up in the morning, […]

My Favorite Poké Bowl, 2 Ways (video!)

In today’s video, I’m making one of my favorite things on the planet: a poké bowl made with ahi tuna and tons of fresh crunchy veggies. Poké bowls are pretty trendy right now, but I didn’t really discover the real deal until we went to Hawaii earlier this year and there was one on pretty much every […]

Weekend Notes

Morning y’all! So far, this weekend has been a sweet mix of date night, swimming with Phoebe and Henry, working on projects around the house, and a birthday dinner for a friend last night. Today’s goal is to continue that trend and hopefully feel completely rejuvenated and ready to tackle the week ahead — planning to spend […]

Could Eating More Slowly Change Your Life?

Do you ever feel bummed when a meal is over? That’s me about seventy-five percent of the time, partially because I’m so enthusiastic about what I’m eating that I simply never want it to end, but mostly because I ate it hurriedly and only halfway remembered to enjoy it. Does anyone else experience this? Since most of us are flying […]

Shop my Ultimate Summer Entertaining Essentials

I’m in my happy place right now. The middle of summer, when dinner parties require bare feet, tomatoes and peaches fill the kitchen countertops, and my most pressing weekend decision is between chilled rosé or a margarita (both, obvi.) When my friends at Bloglovin’ asked me to curate their newly relaunched Shop, I jumped at the chance […]

2 Sangrias to Up Your Summer Party Game

Sangria is one of my favorite summer drinks — it’s fruity and colorful and perfect for a party since you can mix up a huge batch the night before, then chill it and forget it while the fruit infuses it and makes it even more delicious while it sits. So, since pool parties are around […]

Peach, Ginger & Mint Slushie

Last week I had a bunch of overripe peaches on my counter (they’re so good right now, I can’t resist buying them ALL at the grocery!) and instead of tossing them, I quickly peeled, sliced and popped them in the freezer. And of course the only thing left to do with them this weekend was make […]

Weekend Notes

Happy weekend, friends! What have y’all been up to? Today’s agenda consists of pool time, catching up with old family friends, perfecting my huevos rancheros recipe, and doing a little Pinterest research for a new design project I’m working on (stay tuned.) The work weeks have been so busy lately, I’ve been making a major […]

A Modern Botanical Dinner Party

When South Congress Hotel opened its doors in Austin last year, we became instant regulars: at its fantastic restaurants, gorgeous lobby bar, adjoining boutiques, and we even threw our mega #GetHealthyGetTogether there in May. When it came time to gather friends for our latest dinner party, we took our inspiration from the enviable indoor plants that give South Congress […]

This Might Be the Healthiest Brunch Ever

Have y’all noticed that all things pickled, fermented, and probiotic are having a major moment lately? And for good reason: there’s no better way to feed your gut all the good bacteria that keeps it healthy than to consume these types of enzyme-rich foods on a daily basis. A couple weeks ago, a few of my besties […]

July 2016

You guys might have noticed that we took a hiatus from our monthly On My Nightstand series because, well, I took a bit of a hiatus from books in general! After Henry was born, life got really busy and our routine was shaken up, and in such times I tend to fill any little breaks in my schedule […]

Your New Favorite Poolside Snack of Summer

This is one of those things that’s made from the humblest ingredients (basically a bag of chips with chili and cheese poured on top), but when eaten at a ballpark or on a boat dock on a sunny day, the sum is so much greater than its parts. I grew up eating the Texas classic we […]
