Casual Friday: Buying Furnishings that Work in Every Room, House Problems by year, My Lash Secrets, A fun new game and MORE!

Have you ever even seen our "music room"?! Maybe not. Probably not because up until yesterday the electricity hasn't worked in the room. We were finally able to have an electrician come back to look at the wiring and get it working and I feel like I'm seeing the space for the first time! This space is […]

We're Selling Our Land

We've been back and forth on this, selling the land the cabin was on. It's a stunning acre overlooking the Palisades on the Idaho/Wyoming border. Initially it felt like the only thing TO DO was to rebuild the cabin after it burned down last year. We talked to one of our favorite architectural designers, Katie […]

Cajun Grilled Fish Coconut Wraps

I lived in Louisiana for a couple years and was blown away by all the food. So flavorful. So spicy. So rich. And unfortunately the richness is why I can't eat it nearly as often as I'd like to. Just doesn't sit well. But as I've been cooking for myself, my wife, and my daughters, all […]

9 Moms Share How They've Transitioned their Toddler From Crib to Bed

Our youngest, Polly is 2, almost 3 (in August) and she's still in a crib. But not just in a crib. Last year she tried to climb out of her crib and we got this crib tent that she absolutely loves and even asks "mom! zip me!" every night, but I kind of feel like […]

Grilled Steak Tacos with Pickled Radish & Onions

Everyone loves a good taco, but if you really wanna blow some minds, add some sweet, pickled vegetables. And before you convince yourself it's too weird or would take too long, trust me when I say it's not and it doesn't. At all. Made exactly as I do them, these tacos are dairy free, grain/gluten […]

Creamy, Classic, 5-Minute Hummus

I'm not vegan, or even vegetarian, but I aim for 70-80% of what I eat to be plant-based. I just feel better that way. So foods that have been around for generations and are already plant-based are worth memorizing, because they're usually simple to make and super tasty. Enter hummus. It's a favorite around here, […]

Shrimp Salad Endive Cups with Fresh Cherries

Some fruits and vegetables generally taste the same year round, while others should really be in season to truly be appreciated. For me, cherries fall into the second group, which is unfortunate because I love fresh cherries. BUT! Cherry season is upon us, so let's celebrate and use some cherries! This shrimp salad really is something […]

12 Kitchen Essentials For Every Home Cook

A couple weeks ago during the Chris Cooks Instagram Live, we received questions numbering not a few about which kitchen items I would say are "essential." I've spent a lot of time thinking about this, because "essential" really forces some editing. I have drawers full of utensils. Cupboards full of cookware. A wall of cutlery. […]
