Giveaway! Delicious Snacks, Delivered

This might sound crazy to some of you, but I’m one of those people who loves grocery shopping. There’s almost no way I’d rather spend an afternoon than perusing the produce, chatting with the guys in the fish market, studying wine labels, and choosing a new cheese to sample that night. The big problem? Between work, taking care […]

Weekend Notes

Morning, friends! Hope you’re all having a lovely weekend so far. I’ve been battling a nasty cold all week (sick and 9 months pregnant… so not cool), but finally managed to shake it off enough yesterday to embrace our Saturday morning rituals: walk around the city, farmers’ market stop, pastries and omelettes on the patio of […]

Dessert

Raspberry & Pistachio Cake with Lemon Glaze

It’s always right around this time of year that I start craving desserts with fresh juicy berries and zingy citrus fruit — flavors that practically shout from the rooftops that Spring has arrived and it’s time to savor desserts with a lighter vibe. For a garden party I hosted in my backyard, I made this Raspberry […]

Phoebe’s “Big Girl” Room

I’ve been sneaking little peeks here and there of our work-in-progress upstairs spaces, and I’m so excited to show y’all the first of the finished rooms! Since I hadn’t changed up the decor of Phoebe’s nursery since she was born, we thought it was time for our almost 3-year-old to have a room that was a […]

Smoky Mango & Avocado Salsa

When I turned in my book manuscript last year, I couldn’t believe that I’d accidentally written more than would fit in the final book’s pages! Perhaps it’s a better problem to have too much to say than too little, but it meant that I had to go through the arduous process of deciding which recipes and […]

Beauty in Bloom Garden Party

Since the season of garden parties, pastel frocks and bunches of tulips is officially upon us, the team and I were excited to partner with Boots Beauty for a celebration of all things SPRING we hosted in my backyard last week. I’ve been especially into natural, plant-based skincare products during my pregnancy, so I was super curious to […]

No-Bake Peanut Butter-Chocolate Chunk Granola Bars

I rarely leave home without a granola bar tossed in my bag, but I’m not a big fan of the processed ingredients and refined sugars that are in most of them. So lately I’ve been really into making my own, and when I hit upon some of the great no-bake versions out there, I started tooling around […]

My Morning Skincare Ritual

I used to hate washing my face in the morning. When I woke up, I would almost dread having to groggily go through the steps I knew I was “supposed” to follow to start the day with clean skin. But somewhat recently, I began looking at my morning cleansing, toning, and moisturizing as a soothing ritual […]

Nacho Party!

Y’all know that we love a good fiesta around here (especially as Cinco de Mayo approaches!) and last week the girls and I got together for an afternoon shindig on my back patio with grapefruit-jalapeno margaritas and my new favorite party menu… a build-your-own nacho bar! Since Garden of Eatin’ invited us to take part in […]

Weekend Notes

Happy weekend, darlings! This one’s all about celebrating baby’s arrival around here, first with a couples’ shower that some close friends hosted for us last night, and today, with a casual family barbecue. There’s something about unwrapping all those onesies in shades of grey and blue that makes it that much more real we’ll be […]

Weekend Notes

Happy Easter, friends! Hope you’re all having a lovely day filled with sweet things and sunshine. We’re spending the day with our families, and since Phoebe’s still the only grandchild on both sides (for 6 more weeks!), it’ll be all about her solo egg hunts. Which she doesn’t mind a bit, since it means she […]

Our New Design Project!

I could not be more excited to share a new house project we’ve been working on for the last few months — and we’re kicking it off today! I’ve been working with the amazing team at RH Baby & Child on some major updates to our upstairs space, and I’ll be chronicling the process over the […]

My Maternity Staples

As any of you who have been there can attest, dressing a growing bump can be a challenge. I thought I’d have it mastered by the second time around, but since I “popped” a lot faster with bébé #2, I’ve had to be more mindful of dressing my ever-changing bod practically since my first trimester. Every mom-to-be […]

Easter Brunch Fruit Smoothies

We had the BEST time cooking up Easter treats with our favorite little sous chefs at Patricia’s Table earlier this month (did you catch these Easter Egg Pancakes?) I had to share the adorable and completely delish fruit smoothies that we mixed up with the kids. Patricia, the owner of our favorite kids’ cooking school, says […]

4 Steps to Fuller Brows

I love playing that game where you have to choose the one beauty product you’d take with you if you were trapped on a deserted island. This might surprise some of you, but if I could only wear a single article of makeup, I think I’d choose something to fill in my brows. I was not blessed […]

No-Guilt Chips + Queso

Whenever my out-of-town friends land in Austin, it seems like they’re united in a single-minded mission: to eat as much Tex-Mex as humanly possible while they’re here. Recently, while briefing one of them on the merits of various breakfast taco spots, I was shocked to learn that she’d never heard of queso. Wha?! In Texas, queso […]

Weekend Notes

Happy weekend, darlings! Hope it’s been treating you all well so far. It’s been rainy and grey here in Austin, but today the forecast is calling for sunny skies, so we’re headed out for a walk downtown to pickup farmers’ market goodies for dinner tonight. I’ve been doing tons of organizing (nesting, perhaps?) this weekend, cleaning […]
