Today I’m sharing a new (old?) favorite recipe for a meal we’ve been defaulting to at least once per week the last several weeks. A bowl of grains or starch, farmer’s market greens, some crunch, a protein, and a simple dressing. We haven’t done it for breakfast yet, but it’s become a lunch and dinner […]

Today’s recipe is just oh-so-yummy. Like, I could bathe in this rhubarb compote. Especially alongside the whipped yogurt. Yes, whipped yogurt. It’s just as good as it sounds (actually, even better). I was paging through Karen Mordechai’s newest cookbook, Simple Fare (which, by the way, you definitely need to buy. It’s absolutely stunning!), and was so intrigued […]

I’ve shared our favorite avocado sandwich with Ezekiel bread, a simple pasta salad, and today, I’m sharing the recipe for these delicious eggs cups! Perfect for breakfast or lunch, or the […]

          I put together a little Father’s Day breakfast in bed inspiration for The Nest. Head to their blog to see the full post with recipes for vanilla crepes + peach & lavender compote, kohlrabi hash browns, and soft boiled egg. I’m knee deep in our master bedroom makeover (cannot wait for […]

I took the girls on a walk Sunday evening and was pleasantly surprised to see some honeysuckle blooming down the street from our home. We don’t have any growing on our property, and I’ve been tempted to stop on the side of the highway to snip some branches, but haven’t given in to that urge […]
