FRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH. der. Okay PLEASE someone tell me that this Solawave thing is full of bull. It has to be. That honestly cannot be doing what it says it’s doing. Is it? Now, I’m a total believer in skin care. From minimal water splashing and moisturizing to lying on a bed with goggles and laser zapping, […]

Christmas Tree Focaccia
You HAD to see this coming. I can’t seem to stop with bread art. I have no intentions of ever stopping with bread art. It find it soothing, therapeutic, relaxing and inspiring. CARB ART. How can anyone be against this? And you don’t have to make a tree. But I made a tree with randoms […]
Potato, Leek and Gruyere Pie
Savory. Pie. Time. Remember when we polled this? Polled about this? Talked about this? Well here it is! Gruyere cheese. Thinly sliced potatoes (use a mandolin!) Aromatic leeks. Homemade pie crust. I use Alison Roman’s recipe every time and it’s perfect. Her recipe makes two crusts, so either half it or make two. (make two.) […]
Friday Flotsam
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFriday! (yes, I actually just typed the word. Don’t get used to it.) One of my favorite things in life is misunderstanding song lyrics. Oh no, not when *I* misread them, but when others do. It’s the very best. For instance, it might come as a surprise to you that we’ve been listening to a […]
Monthly Mixtape: Stained Glass Citrus Tied Up With String
Admit it, you’ve been waiting for this one. BUT HARK. It’s nothing new. Christmas jazz. Christmas swing. Christmas vintage. You know how I do. But! Maybe in a different order? I dunno. This feel of Christmas is my very favorite, so get in it and let it wash over you. (wash over you?) Without another […]
Baked Peppers and Olives with Rosemary and Parmesan
Aaaand we’re back! With an appetizer that will send your taste buds straight into orbit. So, when we were in Hermann for our little road trip last month, I was sipping a pinot noir at a wine tasting and talking with the winery owner about pairings. And while this is not an official pairing on […]
Friday Flotsam
Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr r r r r r r rrrrrr. Last week I got to say the words out loud to an actual human being friend, “I dropped the Burberry off at the dry cleaner.” I said those words! And I totally felt like I was in a Seinfeld episode because who even goes to the dry […]
Quick Sheet Pan Buffalo Chicken Nachos
And I do mean quick. So get amped. They’re sheet pan! And you need to know now, these measurements are meant to fiddle with. (my mom says fiddle with.) Complete springboard dinner idea for however much or however little you want to pile on and build. My family isn’t really into cheese (Nat is, but […]
French Café Kitchen Curtains!
I finally put up new curtain hardware! And we went French, baybuh. This simple (but effective!) kitchen tweak has been on my to-do list for eons. Long ago when we got the new casement windows I kept teetering between fabric or pull-down. Fabric or pull-down. I wanted to something billowy and airy, but would it […]
Friday Flotsam
Frar. Dar. Flart. Sarm. Just how annoyed at me will you be if I tell you I’m 80% finished with Christmas shopping? Eighty percent! I knocked it HA-OUT yesterday, you guys. And by 80% I just mean with the kids. I haven’t touched family lists yet. That’s for post turkey. The kids’ goodies, though? Done. […]
