Happy weekend! We’re enjoying a cozy one at home, since Austin’s been flooded with rain for the past week and it doesn’t appear to be letting up. That means multiple coffee refills, veggie scrambles, painting with Phoebe, a midday barre class, organizing the pantry, and researching some upcoming travel. Did I mention that I love […]
Confession: I’m really happy that we live in an age when we can get almost everything delivered at the tap of a smart phone button. As much as I actually enjoy grocery shopping (really I do), my current schedule makes leisurely trips to the market a thing of the past, and the ability to have my […]
Surely there must be some mistake. The calendar’s saying that it’s mid-August, but that would mean that summer’s coming to a close… and that couldn’t possibly be true, because it just started. Wait, didn’t it? Okay, maybe I’m in extreme denial (and yes, you have permission to join me in a few more moments of summertime bliss […]
Confession: I’ve never understood sweets for breakfast. Pancakes? Donuts? Cinnamon rolls? How are those not considered desserts?! Now now, before you write me off, you have to understand that my judgy palette is nothing more than a product of my childhood. Raised in a culture that takes its breakfasts very seriously, I can’t help but feel a […]
If you need us, we’ll be here.
As most of us make efforts to clean up our diets and be a little kinder to the environment in the process, it’s also important to consider the products we’re putting on our bodies and bringing into our homes. Today’s post, in partnership with Seventh Generation as part of our Living Green series, is all about the simple […]
We’re pretty sure there’s not a more enviable combination than that of chef and florist when it comes to couples with cool jobs. (Just think about what their date nights at home must look like!) So when we found out that florist Valerie Wolf of Davy Gray Floral is married to non-other than the executive chef at Justine’s Brasserie, Taylor […]
Morning y’all! So far, this weekend has been a sweet mix of date night, swimming with Phoebe and Henry, working on projects around the house, and a birthday dinner for a friend last night. Today’s goal is to continue that trend and hopefully feel completely rejuvenated and ready to tackle the week ahead — planning to spend […]
You guys, my smoothie obsession may have just gone to a new level. With the addition of alcohol. Usually when I have friends over for brunch, I fall back on the old beverage standby’s: coffee and mimosas. As delicious as they both are, I’ve been wanting to shake things up a bit, but I always thought […]
When I was furnishing my first home I wanted a white sofa, against the better, wiser judgement of my family and friends. I don’t have children yet, I didn’t have pets at the time; my white sofa days were numbered and I wanted to make the most of them. So I bought one and set […]
Ever reach that point mid-workout where you truly feel like you’re hitting a wall and cannot go on? It happens to me all the time – mostly on my road bike. I’ll wake up, get dressed, have my coffee, grab a bite to eat, and walk out the door with confidence and excitement to crush […]
Today’s home tour is every bit as colorful and energetic as its vivacious owner, Kristin Gish, co-owner of SUPPLY, Austin-based tastemaker, and all-around social butterfly. The first time I set foot in Kristin’s home was at the baby shower of my friend Kim (also Kristin’s business partner), and I was immediately floored by her unabashed […]
