I’m a big fan of brunch as one of the most fun times to invite friends over for a meal. It always feels way more laid-back than a dinner party, and everyone arrives feeling relaxed and happy after sleeping in that morning. For the first post in our series with Blue Diamond Almonds, I decided to organize […]
As I type this I’m savoring a rare quiet Saturday afternoon: Phoebe and Henry are both napping, leaving me to satisfy a serious urge to bake with this strawberry-almond cake that’s been on my list for awhile. It’s currently in the oven and the scent in my kitchen is making me ridiculously hungry… I’ll let […]
I remember getting my first pair of espadrille sandals as a teenager — they were open-toed and canvas with a ropey strap that knotted around my ankle, and they likely began my lifelong love affair with shoes that make me feel like I’m headed to the beach (even though the reality is that I’m usually wearing them in an air-conditioned […]
*editor’s note: As a longtime fan of the incredibly talented food blogger and author Erin Gleeson, I couldn’t be more excited to have her on the blog today sharing one of her favorite summer recipes. If you’re not already familiar with Erin’s work, prepare to become obsessed: her New York Times best selling cookbook The Forest Feast is one of my […]
The Right answer: I’m religious about slathering on my SPF 50 every day, rain or shine, regularly reapplying at 3 hour intervals and after getting out of the pool. Plus, I always wear a hat with a big brim to keep all those rays off my face! We’ve only got once chance to protect our skin, […]
*editor’s note: I’ve known Shauna Sever, San Francisco-based blogger at The Next Door Baker, for a few years now, and I’ve long been a fan of her simple, crave-worthy recipes as well as her kind and fun personality. I couldn’t have been more excited to receive her newest book, Real Sweet, in the mail recently, […]
Every year, I choose an unofficial “drink of summer” that I find myself mixing up for almost every weekend get-together at our house. The requirements for said drink are: it must be fruity, boozy, able to serve a large crowd, and most important, extremely easy to pull together since I’d rather be hanging out in the pool […]
Happy weekend, lovelies! Thanks for all the sweet birthday wishes here and on Instagram — it has been a great one! After abstaining from raw fish throughout my entire pregnancy, all I really wanted this year was an epic sushi feast — so Adam and I celebrated with our first post-baby night out on the […]
Birthday cakes are the best. Is there anything that feels – or tastes – more celebratory and indulgent than a multilayered confection topped with a crown of flickering candles? For me, they also taste like love: every year since I can remember, my mom has taken requests to make whatever cake I want, and they’ve […]
Happy long weekend, darlings! The forecast is calling for a grey, rainy Memorial Day around here, but I don’t mind: all we have on the agenda is hunkering down with our new babe, visiting with family and friends who stop by, and probably binge-ing on our latest HBO addiction, Veep. This first week with Henry has […]

For most of us, half the battle of clean eating lies is making sure that healthy food is always conveniently close at hand. Let’s face it: when we’re craving an afternoon snack, we’re probably not going to wash and cut veggies for a salad when it’s so much easier to reach for the cupcakes sitting on the counter. […]
Just popping in to say that Henry Neil Moore has arrived! I went into labor right on my due date, and we welcomed our (8 lb 11 oz!) baby into the world on Sunday. He has already brought so much joy into our lives over these last 3 days, and we’re looking forward to a couple of […]

A couple of weeks ago, I had a business meeting at a coffee shop and decided to order scrambled eggs with buttered toast. Such a simple, satisfying breakfast, right? Yet while I sat eating it, I started feeling this nagging sense that maybe I should be fueling up with something a little… cleaner. Visions of kale smoothies, avocado on […]
