At the end of each season, I like to do a mini closet clean-out to keep me organized and help streamline my wardrobe. My rule of thumb is to donate any seasonal clothes that I didn’t wear this year, because let’s face it: if you didn’t wear that tank top this summer, chances are you’re not going to be […]
As much as I’ve tried to expose my kids to adventurous flavors from birth, let’s just say that at this present moment, their tastes veer more towards spaghetti than smoked salmon, and quesadillas will always win out over kale salad. Don’t think for a second that I’m giving up, however – Phoebe and Henry still […]
A couple weeks ago, we threw an end-of-summer dinner party with food from Israeli chef, Berty Richter (who’s bringing authentic hummus to Austin with the launch of his food truck Hummus Among Us.) Today he’s sharing his recipe for fatoush. He says: “Fatoush is a great way to use up leftover pita bread. In Israel, […]
This may not be a very popular opinion – but I haven’t been into recipes lately. With summer coming to an end, the calendar has filled up and my to-do list has nearly doubled in length, meaning the amount of time that I have to commit to making and trying fun recipes has been almost […]
I’m a little late to the game, but I stayed in my first vacation rentals earlier this year, and it feels like a whole new world of travel has opened up to me. Especially when traveling with friends and kids, the ability to spread out in different rooms, hang out in our own outdoor space, and […]
If there’s anything more embarrassing than wearing a midriff-bearing cashmere tube top and sweater combo, it’s having paid way, way, way too much for it as well. I should know, because I did it circa 1999. I was in the first years of shopping for myself without parental approval, and let’s just say Bebe was the scene of many […]
When Sharon met Paul Mrozinski in 1977, neither one of them knew that their lives would be changed forever. A small disaster involving a collapsed driveway initially brought them together, but it’s their uncanny ability to work creatively side-by-side that has made them inseparable ever since. Sharon (a designer and antique dealer) and Paul (an architect) […]
You may remember Anna Crelia and Rhoda Brimberry from a couple years back when we interviewed them for our Besties series. Since then, these sisters-in-law turned business partners have been growing Loot Vintage Rentals to become Texas’ largest vintage rental and event styling company. We’ve been lusting after their chic, refurbished finds for years and now […]
Editor’s Note: Today’s healthy recipe is brought to us by Libbie Summers, a recognized food and lifestyle tastemaker. Her work has been featured in Better Homes & Gardens, Vogue, and on the OWN Show. She now serves as the Creative Culinary Director of the newly launched Terra’s Kitchen, a meal delivery service focusing on farm […]
Ed. Note: After seeing a snapshot of my sister-in-law Beth’s gorgeous green toast appetizers, I begged her to share the easy breezy recipes on the blog while summer produce is still at its peak. Beth’s vegetarian diet means that she’s always finding creative ways to make meat-free dishes feel inspired, and these apps are no exception – […]
I swear by it for every gathering.
For me, a life without (good) pizza is not worth living, and that’s especially true in the summertime when we typically devote at least one night of the weekend to grilling pizzas out by the pool, preferably with a glass of rosé in hand and a few friends over to join in the cooking fun. Today’s […]
