Autumn feels like a fitting time of year to reconnect with faraway friends, as well as the people who live right in our own neighborhoods. When I was growing up, my parents were always friends with our neighbors — we’d have dinner parties, leave baked goods on each other’s doorsteps, and when I was old enough […]
Call me a fair-weather fan, but I equate football season with one thing: parties! Whether you’re inviting friends to gather around the tv in your living room, or meeting people at a genuine pre-game tailgate, the common denominator is good drinks and really great food. A lot of you guys have been asking for menu ideas […]
It doesn’t take more than spending a few minutes with Catherine Stiles to think to yourself: Can we be best friends? Not only does being tight with her mean access to some of the greatest barbecue in the country at her husband’s Stiles Switch BBQ & Brew, but it also comes with a lifetime membership to some of the best Texas-style […]
I don’t know what I ate before quinoa became a permanent pantry staple of mine. It sounds cliche given how much quinoa has been dubbed a “trendy” food, but if you ask me, the grain is here to stay. I usually make a big batch at the beginning of the week (practically with my eyes […]
Do y’all ever have sandwich-for-dinner nights? Sometimes you just can’t beat the ease or comfort food factor of yummy ingredients piled between two toasty slices of bread. On nights like those, you’ll usually find us whipping up this curried chicken and avocado sandwich (with sweet potato fries), inspired by a similar one that Adam ordered […]
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 […]
I’ve never met a veggie sandwich I didn’t like. Seasonal vegetables — whether fresh or cooked — are always a good idea. But when placed between two pieces of perfectly toasted bread, and accompanied by some salty, melty cheese, they reach a whole new level of deliciousness. If you ask me, there’s really no wrong way […]
I don’t need a personal chef — I enjoy cooking too much to hand that task off to someone else. I don’t even want someone to go grocery shopping for me, because strolling through the farmer’s market and trying inspiring samples at the store is half the fun. Want to know what I would love help with? Planning my meals out each week. […]
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 […]
Today’s Entertaining With feature has us flush with emotion. As a Camille Styles intern, Cara Greenstein rocked our worlds with her love of everything food, and her knack for whipping up culinary creations in a flash. Fast forward just a few short years, and our little grasshopper has moved back to her hometown of Memphis, where […]
I have to admit that I’d been feeling a little “off” this week — just kind of down-in-the-dumps for no other reason than possibly hormones and tiredness. Yesterday I decided that I refused to waste a gorgeous summer Saturday by being in a bad mood, so I put my to-do list on hold and spent the day splashing […]
