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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

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 […]
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 […]

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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]

This is one of my very favorite salad recipes, and also one of the simplest. And it celebrates the fact that it’s almost zucchini season!! Since Easter is approaching, thought it would be fun to share one of the recipes from the spring brunch in Camille Styles Entertaining — the menu also includes an asparagus & bacon […]
Even while pregnant, I’m not typically one to order a “mocktail” — they’re usually supersweet and lack the interesting aspects of their alcoholic counterparts, and I’d rather just drink an iced tea or grapefruit juice. However, when Adam and I were in Napa last month, I discovered a serious exception to the rule. While hanging at the […]
Lately I’ve started letting Phoebe “help out” in the kitchen: she was my devoted sous chef on last weekend’s pizza dough, and she singlehandedly added all the ingredients to a batch of zucchini muffins the other day. It definitely gets messy and undoubtedly takes longer than if I just cook something myself, but we have […]
To help get you all ready to say “Hello!” to Spring we’ve teamed up with two of my favorite brands, The Chalkboard Mag/Pressed Juicery and Splendid, to host a super fun and easy Pinterest giveaway! The grand prize: A Pressed Juicery 3 day cleanse (you know you need it after those long months of winter!), […]
