We’re pretty sure there’s not a more enviable combination than that of chef and florist when it comes to couples with cool jobs. (Just think about what their date nights at home must look like!) So when we found out that florist Valerie Wolf of Davy Gray Floral is married to non-other than the executive chef at Justine’s Brasserie, Taylor […]
Morning y’all! So far, this weekend has been a sweet mix of date night, swimming with Phoebe and Henry, working on projects around the house, and a birthday dinner for a friend last night. Today’s goal is to continue that trend and hopefully feel completely rejuvenated and ready to tackle the week ahead — planning to spend […]
Meditation was a foreign concept to me until very recently. I’ll admit that when any of my friends or colleagues talked about meditating, I immediately envisioned them sitting down in a dimly-lit room, legs crossed, candles lit, with their eyes closed and maybe some soft music playing in the background with a cluster of crystals in […]
You guys might have noticed that we took a hiatus from our monthly On My Nightstand series because, well, I took a bit of a hiatus from books in general! After Henry was born, life got really busy and our routine was shaken up, and in such times I tend to fill any little breaks in my schedule […]
Some people seem to have the magic touch when it comes to Instagram: whatever they post is met with likes galore, and they make creating and curating their feed look effortless and fun. The secret, however, is that a huge amount of hard work and strategy is behind the most successful accounts, and we live in […]
“There’s not much better than a baby on a beach, is there?” It was one of those honest observations you make when you’re entirely comfortable with your significant other. We were lying underneath a palapa in Mexico, watching a mother lead her child along the shore. The toddler was experiencing the sea for the first time […]
Last weekend we went to Aspen for the Food & Wine Classic, and though I say it every year (this was my third at the Classic), 2016 was the most fun ever. From the welcome party (I hugged Jacques Pépin!) to the inspiring demos (Marcus Samuelsson was my fave) almost every day held bucket list moments, […]
I’m always in awe (and a little skeptical) of the models and actresses who claim to “wear no makeup” when they’re off-duty and still manage to look glowing and gorgeous. I don’t even have to worry about paparazzi shots, and you’ll still rarely catch me without at least a touch of concealer and a coat of […]
THE restaurant in Tulum shares one delicious secret.
“Motivation is what gets you started, but habits are what keep you going.” My mother hit me with this pointer on the phone last week during our regular call on my commute to work, proving yet again that moms really do know best. That catchphrase stuck with me throughout my day, leading me to consider […]
Morning, y’all! It’s a gorgeous weekend around here — Austin is in its full summer glory and we’re soaking it up in the pool with nowhere we need to be and no idea what time it is. For me, the freedom of not being on a schedule is the best part of the weekend — conversations can linger […]
There’s nothing that channels those summery vibes quite like biting into a fresh watermelon wedge (I take mine with salt) and feeling the juice stream down your sun-kissed arms. Since I’m starting to see a few really ripe ones pop up at the grocery here, I’ve been plotting all the different ways I’m planning to use […]
