It might not be sweater weather quite yet here in Austin, but I’m feeling pretty autumnal anyway, thanks to one of my favorite fall crops: apples. I was so surprised several years ago to discover that Texas boasts several thriving apple orchards, and now as soon as the rosy Galas, Annas, and MacIntoshes start coming […]
Happy First Day of Fall! Can you believe it’s already here? Autumn’s arrival definitely snuck up this year, leaving me feeling slightly sad for missed opportunities to spend lazy days by the pool and evenings barbecuing with friends, but also hopeful and excited for crisp mornings, tall leather boots, and the twinkly magic of the […]
Hey guys! I’m super excited about a new series we’re launching today called “Seasonal Menus.” It’s, well, exactly what it sounds like: I’ll be sharing the perfect menus for all kinds of occasions with the simple recipes you’ll need to prepare them — some that we’ve posted on the blog before and others that are brand new. To […]
Recipe from Huckle & Goose | Click here for the full story “This probably wins as our favorite way to eat beets. Smoke is definitely a flavor element here, so if you don’t have access to an outdoor grill, take the veggies to your friend’s next grill out and whip this up there. The natural […]
Recipe from Huckle & Goose | click here for the full story “We are huge fans of roasting, and while most of us don’t want to turn on the oven in the summer, this recipe is so worth it. The best part is the longer it sits the better it gets, so you don’t have […]
We love summer for the obvious reasons, but if you ask me, the season has its downside too. I love splashing around in the pool as much as the next girl (if not more), but can’t help but feel just a bit bummed each time I reach out to a friend to get together for […]
I’ve never been to Maine, but I know I’d love it there. Growing up, one of my close friends headed east each summer to spend 6 weeks rope swinging and eating fresh seafood with her family, and I couldn’t help but feel the steady onset of jealousy upon hearing the stories and seeing the photos […]
I’ve got to admit, one of the most fun parts of having a 3-year-old daughter is that I finally have an excuse to plan parties with incredibly girly themes like “Woodland Fairy.” And now that Phoebe is old enough to have strong opinions of her own, she gets to weigh in with a birthday party wish […]

A Midsummer Night’s Dream is probably my favorite play by Shakespeare. It’s filled with fanciful prose, crazy love triangles, mystical personalities, and encompasses a unique approach to that most serious subject of love. No wonder I immediately gravitated towards this magical bohemian dinner created by Michelle Burke, who brought Shakespeare’s tale to life by utilizing […]
A few weeks ago, we shared the highlights from the FEED Supper we threw at Josephine House… and today’s a really exciting day, because host sign-ups open up to everyone on FeedProjects.com! To get you up to speed, FEED Supper is a global grassroots dinner party series that happens between 9/16 – 10/16 with the goal of raising […]
We’ve been in denial for weeks, but the date on the calendar makes it official: mid-August means summer is coming to an end. Nooo! The cucumbers! The peaches! The tomatoes! It’s hard to imagine life without the amazing produce that summer has to offer, and even though we’ve had a blast experimenting with all the ripe ingredients (remember […]

This family of Texans can’t stop marveling over the riches of the Northeast summer: maple creemees, swimming holes, meadow hikes, and rambling Sunday drives. From our little cabin in Vermont, we can go all kinds of places on a whim: Maine, New York, even Canada are all just a few hours away. Exploring Montreal was […]
Something really amazing is happening this fall! We’re super excited to help FEED kickoff its second annual FEED Supper campaign: it’s a global grassroots dinner party series that happens between 9/16 – 10/16 with the goal of raising 2 million meals to feed people in need both in America and around the world. And you’re […]
If there’s anyone we’d expect to throw a killer party, it’s an amazing team of professional event planners. That’s just what the ladies of Georgeous did to celebrate the boss’s 40th at a family farm in the Australian countryside. Georgie Kay is the creative director of the Melbourne-based events and styling company, and her friends vouch […]
There are few things in life I love more than a breakfast date, and (as you’ve probably noticed from my Instagram feed) there’s one spot in town that dominates my pre-noon rendezvous. Josephine House is a charming bungalow in Austin’s equally charming Clarksville neighborhood, and its whitewashed wood, marble countertops, breezy patio, and perfect pastries make […]
One of my favorite memories from growing up was when my mom would surprise us on a random weeknight with the announcement: “Banana splits for dinner!” She’d set out bowls with bananas and vanilla ice cream, then all the accompaniments: homemade hot fudge, whipped cream, fresh berries, toasted pecans, strawberry sauce, and of course, cherries […]
