Morning friends — happy weekend! After an action-packed work week, we’re savoring the loveliest low-key weekend around here. On Friday, Adam and I found ourselves with an impromptu kid-free evening, and I’d forgotten how much I love a cozy date night at home. We made this burrata salad, followed by poké bowls, shared a bottle of rosé […]
The first time I ever asked a chef to divulge a secret recipe, it was for a salad dressing. My parents had taken me out to a fancier-than-usual dinner to celebrate my 16th birthday, and we all fell in love with the house salad — which was surprising, since it was really just a simple mix of field […]
Did y’all catch the black-on-black Halloween dinner party we threw last week? Our tablescape was packed with candelabras, vintage books, creepy photos, and old apothecary jars. Wanting to stay on theme with our spooky vibe, I coated traditional red roses with black wax to create a gorgeous Halloween dinner party favor. Today, I’m showing you how to recreate […]

I wasn’t looking forward to my beloved morning workouts — they felt more like a chore than something that would make me feel […]

Shop owner Wendi Koletar is a woman who inspires many adjectives: “She’s such a visionary,” “Wendi’s a total BOSS,” and “She has the best taste of anyone, ever,” are just a few of the descriptions I got when asking some of our mutual friends about the owner of style mecca Kick Pleat. With a gorgeous new 3,400-square foot […]
You know when people say that a spaghetti squash pasta tastes “just like real pasta?” I hate to be the one to break the news, but usually, they’re kidding themselves. (It doesn’t help that, by the time you read this, I’ll be in Sicily eating all the pasta in sight… So I’m a little biased […]
Can’t believe that by the time this post goes live, I’ll be in France getting ready for Chanel’s chateau wedding in the Loire Valley tonight. Our team has been counting down to this day for months, and I can’t wait to see the girl who started as my very first intern 6 years ago (and […]
Do you have a friend you admire for being cultured? Our director of partnerships, Landrie, is one of those people for me. She has all the boxes checked: Well Traveled. Well Read. Well Spoken. Informed. Curious. Gracious, and with a healthy sense of humor. With our busy modern lives, it’s truly a marvel when anyone develops themselves in so […]
