About a year ago, we took a family trip to Vancouver and Victoria, Canada. Here, I’m sharing our favorite things from our vacation. Stay We stayed at Air BnB’s in both Vancouver and Victoria. While both were clean and pretty, I don’t think I nailed the location on our adorable apartment in Vancouver. However, our…
So, over the last year, I have been stockpiling book recommendations. They run the gamut. Some are new-ish. Others have been out for awhile. They are all GOOD. (You will see a ton of mystery/thrillers, because that was what my book club was into last year.) Here’s what I thought of each one. Little Fires…
For several years, I’ve used my slow cooker regularly to cook an entire chicken. I had been using the 100 Days of Real Food cookbook’s version, which uses a combination of spices. But, several months ago, I started switching it up, and the results have been fantastic. Essentially, I now give the chicken the Ina…
For years, I’ve used an odd assortment of skincare products, pulling bits and pieces together to create my own remedy. Well, it wasn’t working. My skin, which is normal to oily, was red, patchy and broken out. Luckily, my aesthetician stepped in while waxing my brows. She gave me samples of a few items to…

We eat this almost every Sunday with chicken, peas and salad to reset our system after Saturdays spent eating pizza, brownies and other unwholesome things. I’m going to go out on a limb and say these apples help save that…
There are two, new-to-me products I’ve started using lately that I really like. The first is the RMS Magic Luminizer. This stuff is amazing and used as a highlighter. I like to swipe it on my cheekbones, in the corner of my eyes, on my lids, above my brows…….pretty much all over. The sheen is…
The Girls by Emma Cline is easily one of the most buzzed about books of the summer. I bought it a few weeks ago and finally cracked it open on our family vacation. The story centers around Evie, who is drawn into a cult in the late 60’s. Inspired by Charles Manson and the murders his…
This simple, 5-ingredient dish works best with peak season produce, so you should probably make it soon. Here, tomatoes and watermelon are plated together with a faint sprinkle of salt and pepper. Then, they’re topped with feta and a drizzle of arugula oil, which sounds fancy, but comes together in minutes. Personally, I think this…
