image: c2 photography/food & wine I arrived home from Aspen Food & Wine Classic earlier this week, and it admittedly took me a couple days to fully recover from the eats, drinks, nonstop pace, and – did I mention drinks? It was a gloriously busy and delicious few days, and I was excited to team […]
photos by kristen kilpatrick We’ve been counting down to summer by prepping the patio at the Camille Styles Bungalow for outdoor party season! To break it in, we invited our crew to join us for a Sunday Funday full of laid-back eats and sips with a Moroccan twist inspired by our patio decor; add great music and […]
I’ll never forget the night before Will and Kate’s wedding. I was pulling another late night at the ad agency I worked for, and mentioned to a co-worker that I had to get up super early the next day to watch the wedding live. “I can’t believe you’re actually getting up to watch that,” he […]
photos by Hannah Haston It’s hard to describe life in Austin without mentioning tacos. The two are basically inseparable, and since it’s not out-of-the-question that I might start a day with breakfast tacos and end it with fajitas, you could say that I’ve gotten pretty good at putting fresh twists on the classics so that […]
image from gal meets glam The last time I was in Paris was by far the most magical. It wasn’t the weather, or the fact that it was the week before my wedding… I think the best thing about our visit was the time we spent on Canal Saint Martin. The canal is by far […]
photos by kristen kilpatrick Now that I’m eating breakfast more often, I’m faced with a new conundrum: how to make my morning meal healthy, quick, and most importantly, not boring. Since smoothies check all the boxes, I make one for brekkie most days of the week, but sometimes I just don’t want to drink my breakfast, ya […]
*photos by kristen kilpatrick Is anyone else prematurely shopping for hot weather clothes? Once that first warm day of March blows in, I can’t hold myself back from sundresses and sandles, and I’ve probably been staying up a little too late the past couple nights perusing spring collections from some of my favorite designers. It’s […]
I’ve always had visions of waking up on a Saturday morning and baking a rustic loaf of bread to enjoy all weekend long. For me, it feels like the essence of hygge… but a couple things stood in my way. First, the terminology of breadmaking (ie. yeast and rising and kneading and proofing) felt super intimidating. Second, […]
For as long as I can remember — at least since grade school — I’ve struggled with my weight. I deleted that sentence at least seven times and almost left it out completely, but I’m confident many of you can relate. It’s an embarrassing confession, and it’s filled with a lot of shame and bad […]
It’s a colorful boho paradise.
2017, you’ve been a peach. While not always easy, it’s been a year filled with both highs and lows, joy and sadness, challenges and life lessons. Whether your leaving 2017 on a personal high, thankful for the last twelve months of living life to the fullest, or anxious to cross the finish line, looking forward […]
It’s a bold claim, I know, but I’ve had these tested by Adam an official cookie expert, and the verdict is in: these are the best chocolate chip cookies on the planet. Since they’re chock-full of nuts, coconut, and oats, one might call them a “monster cookie,” but the fact remains that they’ve beat any […]
