Brrrrrrrrrr! I mean Frrrrrrrrrr! Where the heck did my Viva Signature Cloth paper towels go? You know how I am about Viva Signature Cloth paper towels. If it was a cult, I would be the leader of picking out our monochromatic outfits. Seriously, are they gone or discontinued or only an online luxury now? Because […]
You know it’s time to slurp. This SOUP! You guys, it is borderline begging territory. The recipe comes from the back of First Frost, the novel I just finished. I put my thing down, flipped it and reversed it and made it my own. Meaning: I roasted my own peppers vs. using a jar. So […]
Frrrrrrreedeedeeeee! First of all, it’s difficult to write these silly blog posts and posts these cozy photos with all the devastation in Los Angeles. I watch in stand-still horror as so, so, so many are losing their homes, their pets, their belongings, their whole lives. It’s unreal. I don’t have the words. I’d never want […]
Before we get too far into 2025, we have to take a proper look back at the books we (I) read in 2024 and have ourselves a little cry. I mean recap. Let’s have a recap. But FIRST. You have to see this adorable TBR book nook thingy that Aaron made me for Christmas. I […]
Fffffffffffffffffffffahdaaaaah! First of all, we have a new refrigerator!!! (<–three exclamation points desperately necessary) Okay, and I swear to you and Pete and the heavens above, I will never mention this fridge saga ever again after today. Hey, I’m sick of hearing myself talk about it, so I cannot imagine how utterly over this you […]
We’re baaa-aaaaaa-aaaaaack! Happy happy January! Are you feeling it yet? Are you in? It always takes you (me) a few days to wrap your (my) head around a NEW YEAR. We’ll talk about it more in detail tomorrow, but for today, why don’t we ease in. With this most cheerful mixtape of all mixtapes. It […]
Sheet pan dinner! I mean, what even is this sheet? Ha! Oh. I need more sheet pan situations in my life. It’s like, the ultimate life hack. You violently toss a bunch of sheet on a sheet and say sheet as much as possible. Such good sheet! And this one? Insanity. Cauliflower, gnocchi, red onion […]
Fiyaaaaaaaa-haaaaa-haaaaaa! Cider. If you’re not on the fire cider train, then you best get a ticket and come aboard! (omg I’m so sorry about all of this.) Does it work? Who really knows. Could it help? Well I think so! Look at everything in it. Nothing but aromatics, herbs, cinnamon, vinegar and honey. How could […]
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr r r r r a y! You guys, I am this close to buying Exclamation perfume (!) for Natalie this Christmas. Talk me out of it. Or into it! See, this is why. I accidentally bought her theee most jank little tween perfume. I’m not even going to tell you where from. From where. […]
Ohhhhhh baby babe! We dig risotto. Do you dig risotto? Normally I do a tomato-based risotto with spinach and sausage (like this one!), but today we’re going with nothing but shallots and garlic and mushrooms and thyme and wine and it is doing the trick, man. And it’s vegetarian, if you’re in need of carbs […]
