Shaved Squash Salad with Marcona Almonds & Feta
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 […]
“What’s Up Doc” Carrot-Ginger Cocktail
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 […]
Easter Egg Pancakes
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 […]
My Favorite Austin Beauty Spots
If you haven’t noticed by my constant gushing, I LOVE living in Austin. It’s such a unique mash-up of funky beloved “institutions” that have been around for ages and hip of-the-moment spots that are opening faster than I can keep up with them… and the beauty scene is certainly no exception. I obviously have my little […]
How to Design a Kids’ Gallery Wall (& an art giveaway!)
*update: this giveaway is now closed. Thanks to everyone who entered, and be sure to hop on over to Minted to check out their great assortment of art! Phoebe’s artistic talents are at a bit of an “awkward age”: while I want to display all the paintings and projects she brings home from preschool, at age […]

On My Nightstand
Hey bookworms! It’s been awhile since our last On My Nightstand, and in the meantime I’ve built up quite a list of recommendations that I’ve been dying share with you guys. From an indulgent cookbook to a tome on wellness eating to the latest memoir from a favorite funnywoman, there are some real gems in this month’s collection that’ll […]
An Honest Giveaway + thoughts on nursing
So far, this pregnancy has been easier and much less fraught-with-nerves than my first go-round. There’s no doubt that actually having a baby is the best crash-course in all things parenting, and nowhere is this more true than with feeding a baby, which for many women can be wonderful, frustrating, and sometimes even a source of guilt or anxiety. […]
Weekend Notes
Happy weekend, friends! What’s on all of your agendas? Today’s post is predictably up a little later due to day light savings — which I, for one, am actually really excited about since it means an extra hour of light in the evenings, and a hint at the end of the long dark days of […]
Lavender Pistachio Madeleines
Madeleines may have found their place in history thanks to Proust, but these buttery scalloped cakes are undoubtedly delicious enough to stand on their own, literary references aside. I’ve loved them for years, and can’t believe I actually had to purchase a madeleine pan to make these at home for the first time ever. The […]
Sarah’s Colorful Family Abode
Stepping into today’s colorful abode is at once breathtaking, inspiring, and like a big warm hug that invites you to sit down and stay awhile. That last part is no doubt due to the warmth of its owner, auburn-haired beauty, mother of 3, and talented Austin-based interior designer, Sarah Wittenbraker. Yep, Sarah would be easy to hate […]
No-Commitment Highlights
Confession: I’m a hair color virgin. It’s not that I’ve never wanted to color my hair: in junior high, I fantasized about Gwen Stefani’s platinum blond, and I’ve had more than one episode of thinking about going really dark and dramatic. But the color I’ve tossed around most consistently through the years is adding streaky golden highlights […]
Weekend Notes
This weekend I’m in freezing New York City with my mom celebrating her 60th birthday. It’s really awesome to be here together — my mom’s first trip to NYC! — going to museums, Broadway, eating so much amazing food, and savoring this all-too-rare time with just the two of us. Hope you’re all having a lovely […]
8 Ways to Worry Less
The more conversations I have with my girlfriends, the more I realize: women are natural worriers. We worry about little things (I woke up at 2am last night with my mind racing about the wood floors we’re getting installed!) and the big things (families, health, job security… the list goes on.) However unpleasant it might […]
Weekend Notes
As you can probably tell by the images here (taken at the loveliest flower shop in Boston, via Gardenista), I’m suffering from serious Spring fever. The temps in Austin have been such a tease — sunny and shorts-appropriate one minute, grey and cloudy the next (i.e., at this very moment as I gaze wistfully out […]
The Wool Coat
There’s probably no better place to make a wardrobe investment than in a great wool coat. Considering it’s an item many of us wear every day through the winter, the cost-per-wear makes even a pricey piece practically pay for itself over time. Just something to consider should you be weighing the value of a big-ticket item […]
Broiled Teriyaki Salmon
Maybe it’s because this preggers girl is having sushi withdrawals, but lately, I’ve been craving lots of light, healthy fish dishes with spicy Asian flavors. Inspired by the teriyaki-glazed salmon I’ve ordered at more than one great restaurant, I set out to recreate my own version in a dinner party-worthy entrée that’s easy to prep at home […]

Weekend Notes
Hope everyone’s having a lovely Valentine’s weekend and finding some fun little ways to indulge. We had a great “date night” at home last night — grilled pizzas and chocolate soufflés on the back patio (the weather was insanely gorgeous) followed by Jake Gyllenhaal’s flick Nightcrawler (not romantic, but still awesome.) Phoebe’s also fully embraced the holiday, and […]
