  • When I woke up this morning there was a text from my husband saying Anthony Bourdain had died (He’s still up in WA with the movers and I’m down in CA with Henry this week). My first thought was that maybe it was a hoax. And then it wasn’t. And all day it’s been on my mind, how unexpectedly sad it is. And I’ve felt it so much more personally than I would expect. I didn’t know him, of course, but he was a true inspiration in storytelling, and authenticity, and stoked our love for travel and food and how it shapes a culture. My husband and I would watch his shows and get SO hungry, and then almost always add wherever he was to our travel wishlist. It goes to show we can never know the full picture, and success doesn’t always insulate from pain or struggle. The world lost a great one. He will be missed 💕💕
  • Some red, white, and blue for your weekend! 🇺🇸 These festive, and crazy delicious no-bake cheesecakes are ✨new✨ this week, on the blog!

  • For breakfast, Henry had some blended plum and granola puree - don’t worry, baby food is absolutely not where this blog is headed - it came from a store-bought pouch. But he looooved the combination, which reminded me of this grown up version: blueberry plum oat crumbles, spiced with cardamom and cinnamon and vanilla. He’s clearly a baby after his mama’s heart. . ...Although then I gave him a nearly perfect raspberry and he took one bite and burst into tears, so maybe he can break my berry-loving heart too… 😩😭😂 .

  • Happy Friday!! I always forget just how gorgeous lilacs are until spring rolls around. Our neighborhood is bursting with these perfect purple blooms and I’ve been creeping on everyone’s gardens like it’s my job... 😬📷🙈 . . #lilacs #spring #gardening #pnw #pnwphotographer #iphonex #swoon
  • Posting pictures of myself on the internet kind of makes me squirm, but I like seeing the person behind a blog, so maybe you do too? So, hi! This is me, postpartum frizzies and all 😬 . If you read my last blog post, you know that we’re about to be moving again this Summer - this time to the DC suburbs. So I figured I should take a picture of myself in our lovely, just renovated kitchen before we leave. Related: my husband would like you to know he is now a professional (iphone) photographer. . Also, in the interest of getting a little more connected, here’s a few things you might not know about me: . I’m classically trained in fine art and have a Masters in Interior Architecture. My first career was in high-end hotel design but I traded designing for the mega-wealthy to follow my heart (and future husband) to Georgia, then N. Carolina, and now coastal WA. . He’s an Army officer and is gone a lot. He’s been away training or deployed for more than half of our marriage, including the first 4.5 months of our son Henry’s life. . Henry is without a doubt the best thing I’ve ever made. I wasn’t a “baby person” until we had him - like, I would actively avoid being around small children. While motherhood (and solo parenting so much of the time) has been challenging, he brings me more joy than just about anything in the world. He’s the sweetest, happiest baby. . I’m originally from Santa Barbara, and still miss CA like crazy. . Despite all this sharing online, I’m mostly an introvert. I’ll probably always be more comfortable one-on-one than in a crowd. . I’m the daughter of two journalists, and a total news junkie. The AP is the first thing I check every morning. . I’ll take sweet over salty, any day. Although, I can eat my weight in chips and salsa. . My parents have a tiny avocado ranch, which means I have an awesome avocado hookup (and am always worried TSA will confiscate the perfect avos I bring back when we visit) . Becoming a food blogger was a completely accidental career, and I still can’t believe I get to do this for a living. That’s in no small part thanks to you!!💕 . SO, if you made it this far, what should I know about you? Any questions for me?
