Socca has been a staple in my house for years because it is the most delicious (and nutritious) meal ever! Whether it’s for breakfast, lunch or dinner, socca is perfect anytime of day. For mornings, it’s an amazing savory idea – similar to a frittata and just as satisfying. Plus, it’s the easiest and quickest […]
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 […]
This recipe is from our Girls’ Grilling Party… read the full story here!
It’s possible that I needed an outlet for my frustration (the lazy days of summer are over, after all!), but when I read about the trend of smashing cucumbers, I couldn’t wait to pull out my kitchen mallet and make a delicious mess. Bashing cucumbers turns out to be a great trick – creating craggy surfaces 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 […]
Do you guys go through breakfast “phases” where you tend to crave the same types of food every morning? I totally do — during my pregnancy, it was all about the scrambled eggs with avocado and toast. But (and I’m not sure if it’s due to the hotter weather or my post-baby body goals!) lately […]
Hi guys, hope you’re having a great weekend so far! We’re doing our best to soak up the last vibes of summer with a trip to the farmers’ market, a homemade batch of frozen margaritas, and mainly just spending as many hours in our swimsuits as possible. Can’t believe it’s the last weekend before Labor […]
Courtney Caplan and Sarah Miller make one hell of a team. As the dynamic duo at the helm of Austin’s Caplan Miller Events, the two friends (along with their talented team) are the go-to when it comes to producing a drop dead gorgeous event in this town, and it’s with good reason. Within five minutes of meeting the local […]
TGIF! And just because school’s in session doesn’t mean we have to kiss summer goodbye quite yet. As long as temps are in the triple digits, I’m still wholeheartedly embracing rosé season, and this slushy cocktail is the perfect way to do it. It’s a fitting drink to close out our #SipsForSummer series, but be sure […]
As I was trying to choose a recipe to share with you all this week, it occurred to me that there have been far too few recipes here on The Sweeter Side that feature what is arguably the best, most delicious food in the entire universe — chocolate. It was time, I immediately decided, to […]
Well, it’s happened: my baby girl just up and decided to turn 3! It’s bittersweet to look back at photos from when she turned 2 and realize how much she’s grown from a toddler into a little girl over the past year; one with a full-fledged personality, sense of humor, and definite opinions about everything! […]
