Home. Life. Work. Ease.
This post is part of a series called What’s for Dinner?, in which I invite my favorite bloggers, business owners and online personalities to share with you their own go-to recipes, the favorite meals, snacks, drinks they make over and over again. You’ll get to meet some of my online friends, and we’ll all get some new (fantastic) recipes to try! Today’s guest blogger is a wealth of information about
Years ago I read a blog post that blew my mind. I wish with all my heart that I remembered the brilliant human who first shared this thought with me (and if it rings a bell, please tell me in the comments!) It was a discussion…on Reddit, maybe?…about stuff. Having possessions. Having too many possessions. Wanting new possessions. Wanting that possession. The statement from this one brilliant human that turned
Happy Friday! I hope you are warm & cozy, winding down from your work week and gearing up for an exciting and/or relaxing and/or nourishing weekend ahead of you. What am I up to? How sweet of you to ask! Well, let me just get a cup of tea and we’ll catch up, shall we? I’m sitting here with a pre-dinner snack, which is a small plate filled with cheese.
Months ago I read a post by Tara Mohr. About how she was afraid of going into labor, but a kind soul helped Tara remember she, and the women before her, have given birth a thousand times before. We all know certain things tend to stick with you. Or, more accurately in this case, you forget about them for months and then one night before you fall asleep, you have
Happy New Year, darlings! We sure had fun this year, didn’t we? I’m excited to welcome 2015, as I’m sure you are, but before we fully step into the new year, I wanted to take a brief stroll down memory lane to review the top 10 most popular posts of 2014. As always, I adore you. Thank you so much for reading. It’s so fun to think these posts are on a
As we get ready to bid farewell to another year, it seems natural to reflect on how the past year changed us. Late in the spring I lost my sweet cat, Charlie. He was only 7, and I wasn’t ready to say goodbye. He slept on my heart every night, loved to holler at me while I cooked, and when I kissed him, he returned the favor with a little

When’s the last time you sharpened your knives? If your answer is “I don’t remember,” then you need to a) read this and b) prepare yourself to get up immediately afterwards to do something about it. Ready? Let’s do this. 1. It’s really not rocket science. You’ll need a knife sharpener, and you’ll need to know how to use it. I have an older version of this one and it’s pretty dummy-proof.
Like many Americans, I’m thinking about food in preparation for Thanksgiving. Jon and I are hosting my parents, brother and aunt for brunch tomorrow morning, then we’ll be headed to Jon’s dad’s house for a nice big dinner and football. (Can I get a hallelujah for not trying to squeeze two huge Thanksgiving dinners into a single dinner hour?) I’ve been thinking off and on over the last two weeks
Full disclosure: this blog post has an agenda. I want to return to a simpler time, when families and friends sat around the table, skewering morsels of food and dipping them in cheese. (Or chocolate. I’m not picky.) Let’s bring back fondue, shall we? On Friday, a wonderful woman named Ann purchased a vintage fondue pot from my Etsy Shop, and included a note to me that said this: And I
