Whole30 Meal Plan // Week 2 Guys. Not sure if you feel like I do, but I’m a little worn out. I’ve been sleeping like a champ and following Whole30 to the letter, but I’m still walking around in a fog. Either my energy is sapped from breaking up sibling fights, or from the loss…

Whole30 Shopping List // Week 1
January Whole30 Shopping List // Week 1 Whole30 is a commitment, for best results get organized and be prepared.

Whole30 Pickled Red Onions
Mexican food for breakfast, lunch and dinner, please. I’ll start with huevos rancheros or chilaquiles and then move on to tacos, tacos, tacos. Take a super simple grilled chicken and top it with tangy tomatillo salsa and some pickled red onions, and you’re elevating it a completely different beast. Sure, filling your tortilla with crispy-edged carnitas or a…
Turkey and Wild Rice Soup
The Best Leftover Turkey Soup I had every intention of getting you this before Thanksgiving, but here we are!

It dawned on me that you…

My kids start school this week and I’m currently moving my oldest into her sophomore dorm. Since her freshman year was at American University in Paris, this move-in feels much more “typical.” We’ve been to three Targets, Ikea, Pottery Barn and Macy’s. Considering there are multiple universities in the DC area, finding a twin duvet…

How to Pull Off Weeknight Meals
Weeknight Dinner Strategy August 1 is here. Yikes, how did that happen? August creates a feeling of “Sunday night blues” for me. It means I’m adding sports and school events to my calendar, reading through emails I’ve ignored and getting armored up for the school year. And by armored up, I mean whipping my kitchen…
Mother’s Day Brunch Ideas
Mother’s Day Brunch Ideas Earlier this week, I was a guest on HoustonLife for a Mother’s Day brunch segment. Derrick Shore and I made the Greek Yogurt Coffee Cake from my cookbook and talked about homemade vanilla extract, mimosa bars (sparkling wine with a variety of juice add-ins), and generally treating mom to a morning…
Easy and Healthy Dinners
Easy and Healthy Dinners I may be biased, but I think Dinner is Done makes the perfect gift. So, if you need a signed cookbook or a HB + SITK apron before Mother’s Day or for teacher gifts, we endorse the idea. I also have an in-person book event this Friday in Houston, details are…
