Remember our obsession with straw bags last summer? Well, turns out our affinity for all things woven has only gotten stronger, and right now, we want the natural texture all over our home.

They’re all longing for sweater weather and hot coffees and “coziness.” Not me, friend. Because you know what comes after fall? That long, interminable season known as winter. Fall is just the precursor to […]

Are we all in agreement that spring shopping is the most fun? Granted, the thought of showing any amount of my pale, wintry skin right now sends shivers down my spine, but after a good mani/pedi and some serious exfoliation, I think I can get there.

But when I made these charred eggplants the other night for dinner, they were so ridiculously easy (in addition to being delish) that I knew I […]

featured photo by kristen kilpatrick One of my goals for 2018 is to practice slowing down when I get home from a grinding work day. Specifically, disconnecting from my phone, television, computer, camera… basically anything with a screen. I’m learning to leave work at the office, and cherish everyday moments with my family.
