I’m still trying to find ways to stick summer in soup. And I’d call this one a dern success. First of all, it’s fresh corn! When it’s July and hot and blazin’ hot and very hot and summer and July and hot in July you use fresh corn. It’s mandatory for your health and personal […]

Monthly Mixtape: Sunscreen and Sandals
Oooooo this is a good mix. Like, good. Really really good. Gooder. Goodest. Goodiest. We’re still rockin’ the summer vibes, of course. Boomy, airy, fun. Some old classics that make you go, “Yes! This sawwwwng.” And then, some other brand-new-to-me music that I JUST learned about within the month, that I hope you fall for […]
How to Host a Backyard Movie Night
“LET’S GO TO THE MOVIEEES. LET’S GO SEE THE STAAAARS”. (<–name that movie) So. We’ve hosted two of these backyard movie shindigeroos so far, and I have just one thing to say: “FRED AND GINGER, SPINNING MADLY.” Just kidding. Although now of course I’m dying to watch Annie outside. These are so much fun! SO.MUCH.FUN. […]
Patio Livin’. Plus a Discount!
Patio part-aaaay! And by party I mean me sitting on my patio alone with a glass (bottle?) of rosé. Are you a patio person? (Not to be confused with pod person.) Like, do you host, hang outside, grill, read, play corn hole (<–I’ll never not say corn hole), have picnics, stick your feet in the […]
Grilled Summer Vegetable Bruschetta
Mmmmm Earth eating! (that sounded better in my head) First of all, it was McStormy-doo while I was shooting this recipe, so I opted for my phone to make things easier. So, if things seem slightly blurry, it’s definitely your eyes. Not my phone. It’s you. All you. Glad we got that out of the […]

This is going be so corny, you guys. OHHHHHHHH no I diiiii’int. Do you Mexican street your corn? Yes, Mexican streeting is a verb. Duh. I halfway Mexican streeted my corn over the weekend, then decided upon consumption that I must definitely full-on Mexican street my corn, and show it to you so that you […]
Monthly Mixtape: The “Porch Swing and Linen Skirt” Mix
A few things: Happy almost June! I know it’s not technically the new month yet, but I jumped the gun yesterday and ripped May straight up off my wall calendar, so that a fresh, blank month could smile right back at me. Ahhhhh. Of course it was only blank for 1.7863 minutes, before I penciled […]
Slow-Roasted Golden Tomato Bruschetta
More tomaters! Only this time we’re slooooow roastin’. As opposed to slow cookin’. Remember? From like, two days ago? Never mind. These golden beauts, I must admit, do not come from my very pregnant garden. They’re farmer’s market finds because I cannot liiiiiiive without golden tomatoes. Which makes me wonder why I don’t just grow […]
Slow Cooker Chicken and Tomatoes with Bow Tie Pasta
Bumper crop meets pasta = HUZZAH. I almost didn’t shoot this recipe. It was such a last-minute kitchen-sink throw together, so it didn’t really occur to me. Then Aaron was like, “Are you going to shoot this?” And I was like, “Naw.” And he was like, “You better did.” And I was like, “You better […]
