Chris and I have always said that if we don't feel 100% all-in excited about a project—both of us—then we probably haven't found the solution yet. I think that's been the tale with our primary bathroom renovation as a whole. We feel excited about doing the project, but it's been YEARS in the design phase […]
I do a lot of cooking for food restrictions, but this recipe is none of those things. These dinner rolls are my mom's recipe, and they're one of her signature dishes. She has made them for almost every gathering since I was a kid. The smell of these...it's the smell of every family event in […]

This post is sponsored by Wayfair I'm in my fall feelings right now: Give me all the dark mahogany wood tones, the colored marble, the antiqued lighting...but with a modern vibe. I spotted a vanity at Wayfair a few days ago that I sent to all of my work girlies because it was THAT. GOOD. […]
