We made it. We came out the other side of the holidays. Maybe some of us came refreshed. Others rugged and worn. A few just plain cold (yup! yup!). But here we are. Hi 2016! Comfort is always the name of the game after a lapse of time in the kitchen. And these paleo (optional) […]

Bacon. Wrapped. Sweet. Potatoes. I should just stop writing and give you the recipe. But let me prove their worth. I have taken these things to no less than 4 holiday parties over the past two weeks. They never last. They always please. What more do we need? The best part is how simple they are. […]

I’ve been learning to settle into my skin, not locations. To find my home in people, not structures. I keep a bright idea in my pocket, that wherever I am is exactly where God has me and to bloom alive right there. To put all that I am in that moment, in front of that […]

Listen. Take the day off and make this. Sometimes Jeremy and I find ourselves with an overabundance of fruit that is… near death. And I am like, “SAVE ALL THE FRUIT!” The first thought that occurs is a no brainer. Fruit salad. Except my fruit salad might look a little different than the world’s fruit […]

It’s been rainy and cold here in South Carolina and I have basically found myself in need of a snuggie. Mind you my auto-correct turned snuggie into snuggle and I’ll take some of those too 🙂 Also, it is shocking to me that the Air Force did not send Beau home early on any of […]

Fall is officially here. As in last week we celebrated the first week of fall. Also as in, I practically went from sandals and tank tops to scarves and cute coats overnight. I quickly realized the err of my ways when we went to Charleston this past weekend for the Southern Living Taste of Charleston […]

Last week I did not get our table post up. It’s because I was waiting on news. And we just got it. But lets start here: This past July Beau and I went to L.A. While part of it was a vacation the other part was a secret mission. Could this be our new home? […]

So, this was the post I originally published for last week’s Around Our Table. It’s the one that got unpublished so I could share my broken heart (also, I have a post on Monday as a follow-up so stay tuned). But this post is bright and sunshine filled and I think we need some of that this […]

When Jeremy travels, the first night he’s gone I have to make comfort food. I almost always go to our local meat market and get a filet mignon make drool worthy, buttery steak. Steak is my happy place. If I don’t want to do steak then I almost always default to pasta. All. The. Pasta. […]

I’ve been all over this town telling people I already miss summer. Like some crazed and delusional girlfriend I’ve leeched onto this season and my request is simple, “Summer, stay forever! Or at least take me with you.” But the other day I sat down to think about why fall is going to have to […]
