It’s that time of year… The mornings and evenings are cooler and we begin to crave fall. Yet we are still solidly in summer for 3 more weeks. The garden is bursting with tomatoes, so we are savoring. And blending the two seasons as best we can with pot after pot of the garden fresh […]

Today I’m sharing what has become my go-to meal this summer: sumer squash with pasta (and sausage and beans). My friend Meghan posted the incredible recipe to her Instagram a few weeks ago, and since then, I’ve made it over 5 times! It’s just that good! I even just made it this week on vacation […]

I’ve been obsessed with Costco’s salmon burgers for years. We typically just grill them on our little countertop grill, and then throw them between some slices of bread or on top of greens. Such a satisfying, protein-filled dinner, and EVERYONE in our family loves them. In the summertime, we frequently just grill the salmon burgers […]

I was at the Farmers’ Market a few weeks ago and snagged one of just a few pints of fresh figs from Allder School Berries. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with them, but I knew I wanted to take advantage of their limited season here in Virginia. After ripening for a […]

My sister made it several times, and it’s become a favorite. So simple, a celebration of summer in a bowl. It’s best when […]

I’m a serious deviled egg fan. If you invite me to your party and you put out deviled eggs, you better watch me, because I’ll devour them ALL in seconds. Just gently ask me to walk away and remind me there are other guests. There’s just something about deviled eggs – probably the mayonnaise and […]

I’m a few days away from my due date, with so signs of baby. I suppose he may follow the footsteps of his sisters, arriving 12 and 7 days late. I feel SO ready, and not just physically. I’ve been trying to keep the house neat and the kitchen clean and the bathrooms spotless. Since […]

  It’s August 22, it’s still summer, and I’m still pregnant! Fancy that! I don’t know why I let myself even consider the possibility that I will deliver this little one early, since both of my girls were significantly late (Zoe, 12 days, Naomi, 7 days). But I’m officially in the “safe zone”…past 37 weeks […]
