There are only a few things I love more than snuggling up in a blanket and diving into a great book … usually. But how easy is it these days to trade in our books for another dinner party, another movie night out, or a few extra minutes of sleep? Lately I’ve been craving some quality […]

Not only is it an unexpected time to have a party, but the anticipation of a social event makes a middle-of-the-week workday so much more fun! I know, I know: the thought of cooking, hosting, and cleaning up sounds like a lot to tackle after […]
I recently took the doors off of my kitchen cabinets. After years of fantasizing about what it would be like to have open shelving in my kitchen, I grabbed a screw driver and removed a couple of screws on each hinge – voila! Open shelving. They’re not true open shelves, and you can still see the […]

Finally: tomato season is in full swing! The farmer’s market is bursting with the most beautiful array of heirloom tomatoes and I want to use them on everything. Besides simple summer salads & no-cook sauces, toast is my favorite way to eat tomatoes this time of year. They don’t need much – just some garlic, olive oil […]
We’ve all experienced it. We’re going about our business– going to work or school, and then one day we wake up and just don’t quite feel right. Maybe nothing has triggered it, but maybe it’s a bad break-up, a job you’re unhappy in, or just the hard transitions of every day life. For some of […]

*editor’s note: Constantly having to stare at mouthwatering, indulgent desserts on a computer screen is a tough job. And when that dessert happens to be the product of all my favorite flavors, it can feel like complete torture. Enter this beauty by Megan Giller: the undeniable marriage of chocolate and coffee, in the form of two decadent scoops of ice cream. […]

Can’t believe that August is here! This has been one of those weekends that makes me wish summer would last forever. Patio brunching with friends, swimming for hours, grilling dinner at dusk with a glass of rosé in hand… It’s definitely my favorite time of year. Although I have to admit that I did spend […]
We’re at the point in the year where, down here in Texas, things really start to heat up. The sun is scorching hot, you can most definitely fry an egg on the sidewalk (or maybe even an entire chicken…not that I’ve tried), and nobody dares to venture outside without a liberal coating of sunscreen and […]
