Dairy-Free Golden Milk Recipe | Chris Cooks
I'm starting to feel it in the air, y'all. Fall is definitely creeping in and I love it so, so much. Of course one of the downsides is the rise of cold and flu (and covid) season, as well. Boo. That's where this Golden Milk recipe comes in. Pitcher | Dish Towel | Jar Glasses […]

5 Simple Fall Decor Tips
When it comes to seasonal home decor, I like to keep things fairly simple. My tips for making my home feel more cozy are simple enough to do in an afternoon (I did)! But most importantly, none of this is going to break the bank! In fact, I bet you can find most of this […]

Take a Step into Our Outdoor Shower
An outdoor shower was not on our radar AT ALL until our contractor asked if there’s going to be a shower in the pool bathroom (which will be replacing the downstairs laundry room). There’s only going to be enough room for either a stacked washer and dryer, or a shower, but not both. And so […]

Dairy-Free Rosemary Salted Caramel Sauce | Chris Cooks

Our girls started school this last week and I've said it before, but this is my favorite time of year. I really thrive off of routine and it's just nice to get back into the groove of things. Fall is on the cusp, but we've just been soaking up as much time in the pool […]

Project Punch List: What's Left On Our To-Do List
I recently made a declaration that I'm not starting any more home projects until our current projects get all wrapped up. There's so many moving parts at the moment and I'm feeling a bit frazzled with all the loose ends. And so! I came up with a list of all the things left on our […]

5 Minute Side - Carrot Slaw with Honey & Dill | Chris Cooks

This carrot slaw is another one, and really is quite special. Task Lamp | Wood Bowl | Serving Platters | Cutting Board | […]

Gluten Free Meatloaf (Also Grain, Dairy & Egg Free) | Chris Cooks
Meatloaf is classically made with breadcrumbs (or milk-soaked bread if you're a bit extra), eggs, and often grated hard cheese of some kind. And when food allergies pop up, it can start to feel like you'll never enjoy the classics again. And while we still wait and hope for suitable replacements for some things (lookin' […]

Design Tip! Plug in a Kitchen Countertop Lamp
A few years back, I bought a thrifted lamp and I had the idea to use it on my kitchen countertops. I don't know exactly how it came to be, and it wasn't necessarily something I've seen before, but it felt right. In the evening, I love turning off the overhead lights and turning on […]

We're making headway in the laundry room! The tile was laid, the cabinets are in, the wallpaper is up, and the light fixtures have been installed. The next thing to be done, (and the reason we're at a standstill) is install the countertops. I have been neck deep in countertop materials and so I thought […]
