I know, I know – I went underground for a while there. Quite frankly, I had given up. Since, oh, Harper was born (three years ago!) I have been winging it and making it happen – but it was a struggle to take the time to photograph, document, and write about everything I was juggling. …

Almost every dish we had while traveling through Santa Fe / Sedona / Moab was garnished with pickled red onions and of course I needed to recreate them immediately upon my return home.

Happy Anniversary to ME!

Today marks my 5 YEAR anniversary with Beautycounter! When I learned there are little to no ingredient safety measures in the $90+ BILLION dollar personal care industry, I almost passed out.

The Ultimate Face Lift: A Good Paint Job

I had been daydreaming of painting our kitchen cabinets for some time: our (almost) 9 year old kitchen was starting to show signs of age and was beginning to feel dated. I had some hesitations, such as budget (I don’t know why but the idea of spending money to paint was difficult to digest. Maybe…
