We’ve got a heat wave here in NYC that’s letting us know: summer has officially arrived. The idea of turning on the oven is a joke, and I’m on the hunt for cooling meals at all times of day. Green smoothies are my breakfast of choice which makes things easy in the mornings, and this tropical […]
Summertime is made for crumbles. And crisps and cobblers and buckles. Thought I’m a little fuzzy on the exact distinctions, I know that I’d happily eat any of them on a warm summer night with a scoop of ice cream. Also, for breakfast. The only problem with peach season is that I can’t control myself […]
Would you guys eat salad for breakfast? I have to admit that it’s something I would never have considered a couple years ago, but as I’ve gotten more into savory breakfasts (and started filling my smoothies with loads of spinach), suddenly the idea doesn’t seem so crazy. And there’s no doubt that starting things off […]
Morning, y’all! It’s a gorgeous weekend around here — Austin is in its full summer glory and we’re soaking it up in the pool with nowhere we need to be and no idea what time it is. For me, the freedom of not being on a schedule is the best part of the weekend — conversations can linger […]
Thanks to the arrival of summer’s heat, there’s no way I’m turning on my oven or firing up the stove. These next few months will be all about salads and smoothies (even when the AC is blasting). That’s why I love this porridge so much: it’s the summer version of your morning oatmeal, with a crunchy, chocolate-y topping. I […]
ed. note: Join me in welcoming our newest contributor Alison Dulaney-Engstrom, of the lovely Rose & Ivy Journal. I’m a huge fan of her work and so happy that she’ll be stopping by to share lush seasonal recipes, as well as scoping out some of the chicest people in NYC to interview for Camille Styles. We’re kicking […]
With the arrival of summer (and hello, long weekend!) the internet is ablaze with no-oven-required, outdoor-friendly recipes. And while I love a fresh-from-the-grill feast on Memorial Day just as much as the next gal, I find that my favorite long weekend-moments tend to be those that take place before the party begins. Before the hot […]
Saturday mornings are a treasured time of the week for me and Eric. We wake up when our bodies tell us to, open the windows (rain or shine), blast some music, then work together to make a breakfast out of whatever ingredients remain in our fridge after the week’s homemade lunches and dinners. The entire saga […]
People tend to have strong feelings about their guacamole: there are the purists who demand little more than avocado, lime, onion, and cilantro… and then there are the creative versions with roasted corn, black beans — I’ve even tried a couple guacs topped with crab meat. Let’s be honest, I’d happily eat any of them, but I […]
We’re having some unseasonably cold weather here in NYC… and I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who’s totally over it. Although I’m not quite ready for the humidity of summer, the bright and lovely produce of the warmer months is sounding pretty heavenly right now. In rebellion, I’m eating tropical fruit chia pudding like it’s 80 […]
Hi y’all! It’s officially Cinco de Mayo week, which means we’re mixing up lots of frozen margaritas healthy Mexican dishes in my kitchen over the next few days. Now, I love chips & queso as much as any other self-respecting Austinite, but this year I’m in the mood to set out appetizers that are a little more unexpected, […]
Morning, y’all! We’re in Houston this weekend to celebrate Chanel’s engagement — we haven’t talked too much about it here on the blog quite yet, but I did post a hint at the fabulousness that is to come when she ties the knot this fall, so stay tuned for more on that. Even though it’s a quick […]
