Morning, friends! Anyone else feeling especially happy that it’s the weekend? No matter how much I love what I do during the week (truth), by the time Friday rolls around I’m usually craving a break to turn it off, hang with the fam and not feel the constant need to be productive. I’ve been trying somewhat […]
I know what you may be thinking: homemade ricotta sounds like one of those things (along with handmade pasta and sourdough bread) that would be nice to make yourself – if you also had time to spend a week in a cabin in the woods foraging for your own meals. But stay with me, because […]
Happy Valentine’s Day, lovies! I’ve got to admit I’m a huge fan of this holiday (probably doesn’t come as a surprise if you’ve taken a look at our homepage lately.) Roses, handmade cards, and endless chocolate? What’s not to love? Adam and I celebrated together early, so today is all about spending time with our two […]
Y’all, I’ve discovered a new breakfast obsession. I’ve always been a huge oatmeal fan (I go through phases when I eat it on the daily), but only recently have I discovered the phenomenon that is baked oatmeal. Made with a bit of egg, milk, and bananas, this version is a cross between bread pudding and banana […]
Now that the holidays are under our belts, it’s officially acceptable to start dreaming of al fresco entertaining with light, fresh flavors and the sun on our shoulders. To celebrate the first hints of spring, we teamed up with our friends at kate spade new york for a fresh and flirty brunch in my garden — thanks […]
How do you guys feel about PDA? I’m not personally one to put it all out there when it comes to my love life, but when I spot another obviously in-love couple who can’t keep their hands to themselves, it’s kind of sweet. Up to a point, of course. Valentine’s Day is the one exception […]
Happy Sunday! I’m curled up in front of the fire on this chilly morning, trying to decide whether to make pancakes or bundle up and go to my barre class. The former admittedly sounds more fun right now, but I know I’ll be really glad later if I choose the latter. Especially in preparation for the […]
Steal your sweetheart’s heart.
As someone who loves Love, making romantic plans for V-Day is always a favorite activity of mine. But what to get the Valentine who seemingly has everything? Especially since the perfect gift for this occasion should be thoughtful, not overly extravagant, and something the recipient wouldn’t normally buy for themselves. I’ve been hunting down the most beautiful tokens […]
Roasted vegetables are one of my very favorite things to make (and eat), and I’ve tried just about every possible cooking time and temperature before settling on this easy recipe that yields perfect veggies every time. Watch the video above to see my foolproof method, then keep reading for the recipe below. And if you’re looking […]
I’ve never talked much about my own love story on the blog — not for any particular reason, it just never seemed that relevant. Which is funny, since meeting Adam was a defining moment of my life and one of the very best things that’s ever happened to me. We met at work and got […]

I’m really feeling the no-makeup makeup look these days — a natural, easygoing routine feels so right this season and fits my current schedule of going straight from working out -> work -> lunch with a friend -> preschool pickup. Of course, a prereq to pulling off this look is healthy, glowing skin, so I’ve […]
I’ve been dying to share this recipe ever since we got back from Hawaii a couple months ago — there seems to be a poke bowl (pronounced “poh-ké”) on the menu at just about every restaurant in Maui, and since I sampled so many of them throughout the trip, it took me a little while […]
It’s been a big week for our team… mostly because Chanel got engaged!!! Her boyfriend Eric popped the question on Friday and we all celebrated maybe a little too late last night. Chanel has been my righthand woman behind the blog for the past 5 years (I hired her as my first ever intern when she […]
I’m willing to bet that there are at least a couple of healthy ingredient substitutions in the chart above that you didn’t know about. Am I right? In my eternal quest to use clean and unprocessed ingredients in my cooking at home — for adults and kids — I’ve tried most of these. The result? Way healthier […]

Couldn’t be more excited to finally share the first post in our brand new video series! Y’all know that I’m a big fan of smoothies for breakfast, and in today’s video I challenge Chanel to a smoothie-off to see who can make the most delicious one. I make mine with bananas, spinach, cacao, and almond butter, and Chanel […]
Around this time of year, I start craving soup a few times a week — there’s nothing that warms the body and soul quite like it. And since we’re eating extra clean this month, I asked food blogger and wellness coach Lisa Bryan to stop by with her favorite healthy soup recipe this winter — and boy did she […]
How do I love thee, Sundays? Let me count the ways… waking up without my alarm, time for cooking experiments and kids’ craft projects, motivation to tackle an organizational project. And then there’s brunch. I love days like this for their sheer unhurriedness — I think that such careful scheduling of my time during the […]
If you cringe a tiny bit when you hear the phrase “personal brand,” I hear ya — it’s a buzzword that can feel a bit phony, especially when tossed around the social media-sphere the way it often is lately. But when you get to the root of what a personal brand really is (don’t worry, we’ll […]
Hey peeps, we’ve been working on some really cool video projects that I can’t wait to share here soon. It’s the first time we’ve concepted and produced our own videos strictly for the blog — people have been asking us for ages why we didn’t do video, but I had to find a personally compelling enough […]
Sweet, salty, creamy, crunchy — all the things a great appetizer should be! I love experimenting with snack-y bites to serve before dinner parties, and the two main requirements (aside from being delicious) are that they must take 5 minutes or less to make and require no more than a handful of ingredients. These caramelized […]
