Can we just take a moment to realize that 2021 is basically over? Sort of. In a way. We’re in the ‘Embers tomorrow and we all know it’s a slippery slope from here. Apples, pumpkins, candy, turkey, pine clippings, gift wrap, SNOW. We don’t have to talk about it though. I can sense you’re having […]
FRRRRRRRRRRRRRitz! ay! iday! Our monarch caterpillar ATE ITS OWN HEAD OFF. It did! Listen, this sounds wonky do, I know. But it happened. Literally happened. And I mean literally as in literally. We walked in to check on our one chrysalis and two baby caterpillars. (I forgot to tell you, we’re raising more. We are. […]
Why yes, another end-of-summer side dish! If you dare. And what’s even better is that I have a story to go with it. You’re like, “please no.” So my bestie Laura was in town last weekend for my birthday, and we hit up a cute little indie bakery in the neighborhood for lunch. We ordered […]
FRRRRRRRRRRRieeeeuuuuuuumuuuuday! (<–?) I’m sorry, what’s wrong with lemons? Yeah, you heard me. WHAT IS SO WRONG WITH A GOOD LEMON? Sorry to yell at you first thing on a Friday. I’m just trying to finally understand the phrase “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” LEMONADE? I don’t even like lemonade. But guess what I […]
One last tomato recipe! I think. Maybe. If you’re lucky. I swear, every summer I get super psychotic about things to do with tomatoes. LET US BE CLEAR REAL QUICK: there’s nothing more supreme than a freshly sliced tomato with a sprinkle of salt on top. Nothing. It’s pure and perfect. Buuuuuut, I mean, if […]
YOU GUYS. I don’t even have words. Like, no words. Besides all the ones I’m about type out right now. Remember when we went to Little Rock last month and saw my sister Barbara, her husband Dustin and their girls for the first time since 1987? Right, you remember. (this photo was from 1954. Not […]
Oh, that rhymed! This is the thing: this topping? UNREAL. I’m calling it bruschetta because it’s on toasted baguette and it sounds super cute, but do you want to know how I ate it after a bite of the toast? Besides spooning it with a shovel into my unhinged jaw? Salad! I sprinkled it over […]
FRRRRRRRRRRRulumupududopolomo! YOU GUYS. We’re getting so close with this renovation. One week left. And I (think?) I mean it! We’re two weeks and a day in, with sixish days to go. It’s so dusty. It’s such chaos. It’s such a mess. Nothing is where it’s supposed to be. The bottoms of our feet and shoes […]
Yes ma’am, this is 100% based on, inspired by, catapulted from and birthed within the pages of THE RUMOR. But we’re doing it my way today. “And we’ll do it our waaay yes, our waaaay, make all our dreaaaaams come true. For me and youuuuu.” If you can name that reference we are soulmates. So! […]
I’ve been posting mixtapes to this internet blog URL website for like FIVE YEARS now and have never delivered on the choral. How could I hold out on you like this?! You’re like, “because it’s choral.” But listen. Something you might not know about me is that I was totally a choir nerd. (Isn’t it […]
