It’s here!: My annual roundup of all the best travel, style, and home sales for Black Friday + Cyber Monday. The sales this time of year are so fascinating to me – it’s been wild to watch the transition from waiting in line early on Friday mornings to week-long promos offered online. As annoying as …
A recipe for homemade, plant-based Irish Cream—you won’t believe how easy it is to make (and your friends don’t need to know!)
Is it just me or has this summer really just been a summer? For my U.S. and Canadian friends, I think it’s safe to say we’ve earned this long weekend. Michael and I are traveling somewhere next weekend, so rather than flying two weekends in a row, we’ve decided to stick a little closer to …
I’m rounding up deals from the best travel brands and the retailers I shop most.

By putting them out into the universe, I hope I’ll have a little extra push to form an action plan and accomplish the …
We’ve all been there – the moment you realize that you’ve accidentally left someone off your list (or when you’ve put off getting a gift for that person who’s impossible to shop for) and a sense of panic sets in. Not to worry! Today I’m sharing a few gifts that you can still get today …
Three more sleeps ’til Christmas! Michael and I started our celebrations early today with an extended family get-together.
