When on a recent trip to Atlanta for business, myself and a few other bloggers were chatting about how amazing deviled eggs are. Do you realize – everybody loves deviled eggs! …

Hi, guys, and happy Halloween! Just in time for the spookiest of all holidays, Andrea, Samantha and Jade and Matthew are back today sharing the perfect beet cocktail. Whether it’s for sipping this evening after the trick-or-treaters have ransacked your candy stash or whipping up for a Halloween party you might be hosting or attending, this cocktail is both unique …
An alternate title to this post would be “The Easiest Halloween DIY Idea Ever.” Or perhaps, “Photographing Balloons is Surprisingly Tricky!” Either way, you get the gist. I shared a photo of this balloon on Instagram yesterday to rave reviews so I thought I would share this quick and easy last minute Halloween DIY project. …
Guys, the final countdown is on! We’re just two days out from Halloween so you know what that means – if you haven’t already figured out your costume or that for your kiddos, now is the time. Luckily, there seem to be more ingenious ideas than ever before for quick, easy last minute Halloween costumes …
Because I just can’t give up on a good thing until I’ve gone and completely burned myself out on it (salads, I’m looking at you right now), today we’re going back to my obsession with black and white for a moment. Specifically, a color palette that is both a perfectly elegant way to kick off …
Guys, it’s officially sweater weather in Upstate New York this week! We went from zipping right along with incredibly unseasonable warmth and sunshine (I’m talking lows 80s as of just a couple weekends ago) to a heavy flurry of sleet and snowflakes yesterday. While there’s no snow sitting on the ground just yet, I’ve definitely …
While I’m not historically a big whiskey drinker, in the last year or so I’ve really come to enjoy the rich caramel flavor. Especially this time of year! I find something about great whiskey cocktails so perfect for fall. Paired with fruit like berries and figs, it’s just so darn tasty. If you think you’re …
It seems that across the board, this year is definitely the year of black and white for Halloween. I guess maybe we’re all a little tired of the traditional black and orange? (Not that I don’t love me some kitschy Halloween decor, because I do.) Personally I’m loving the whole black and white love affair …
In between football games, enlisting B’s help in prepping for a big upcoming holiday DIY photo shoot this week, and carving pumpkins, we found time to roast pumpkin seeds this weekend. I honestly had forgotten how much I love them! Thus, this post serves as a friendly little reminder to you that roasted pumpkin seeds …
Happy Monday, friends! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. Somehow in the midst of a pretty jam-packed weekend full of family stuff going on, I tackled a bunch of prep over the weekend for a few upcoming projects. While brainstorming color palettes for said projects and making shopping and prop lists for upcoming …
I was talking with B one day back in July and said something along the lines of, “We should probably start thinking about what we’re doing for Thanksgiving this year!” Insert loads of premature excitement on my part and a well-deserved head shake on his part. Of course, most people aren’t thinking about the holidays …
Lately I’ve been finding myself really seriously inspired by kids rooms. Specifically of the beautiful, modern and largely neutral-hued variety. Whether it be with Scandinavian inspired black and white or bright white walls with subtle pops of juicy color, I find these rooms to be so much more sophisticated than the primary colored kids rooms …
