It always happens around September 1st, just like clockwork: I’m relishing the warm weather and wishing that summer would never end, when BAM! I feel a cool breeze and leaf through the September issues of all my mags, and suddenly I’m as obsessed with fall as this guy. Without a doubt, my favorite thing about this […]
Do you guys remember my vow to try and start eating more slowly? In the month since I wrote that post, I’ve been implementing a few changes at mealtime, so I thought it would be a good time to report back with what’s really made a difference for me. As we touched upon in the last post, […]
Alexandra Macon and Andee Olson met in 2010 while working at Vogue.com and became fast friends — after all they were both Southern girls living and working in New York City. Fast forward six years, and while the two no longer work together officially (Andee went on to become the Site Director for The Coveteur), last summer they reunited to launch a collaborative labor […]
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 […]
True Food Kitchen is undoubtedly one of the hottest lunch spots in Austin right now. Thanks to the light and airy space and the menu full of delicious items that you can’t believe are that healthy for you (they are), it seems that every other lunch meeting I schedule inevitably ends up there. Dr. Weil is the man behind the […]
Shaken, not stirred.
When in Austin, do as the Austinites do… which means eating a ridiculous amount of Mexican food and not feeling the slightest bit bad about it. I make tacos, fajitas, tortilla soup, and guacamole on the regular, but taquitos had always been more of a restaurant-only thing because I’m not really into deep-frying at home or […]
Effortless style. It’s fascinating to observe those rare women who truly have it as they throw on their favorite worn-in white tee shirt and instantly look incredibly chic. Alicia Lund, Cali-based blogger behind Cheetah is the New Black, is without a doubt one such gal. She has the type of pedigree you might imagine: former fashion […]
Morning, y’all. It has been a doozy of a week — starting Monday, I was in and out of bed with a mysterious fever and cough, Adam was out of town so I was home with both kids (thank God for our parents), and work was at its busiest so I couldn’t exactly burrow under […]
It’s been a big week for our team… mostly because Chanel got engaged!!! Her boyfriend Eric popped the question on Friday and we all celebrated maybe a little too late last night. Chanel has been my righthand woman behind the blog for the past 5 years (I hired her as my first ever intern when she […]
Well it seems we all survived the first full workweek of 2016, and I hope it was a great one for you! Things felt extra busy around here — we did a cool interiors shoot for an upcoming pub, launched a new video project that I can’t wait to share with y’all, and spent a […]
Aside from being the first day back in the office in 2016, it’s an especially exciting day around here: our team has been working on a few big updates, and we’re pretty thrilled to finally share what’s new. But first, some background. For the past year or so, I’ve been pushing myself to step back and take a […]
