Happy weekend! I’m glad you stopped by.
What are you up to? I’m thinking peach-mint juleps for later and a small derby-themed spread. There’s a party planned for tomorrow, too. I’m also mapping out my planting plans for the season and getting ready to start soon.
To celebrate Mother’s Day, Max and I made a cookie-baking video for Crate and Barrel. It was such a fun project — baking cookies and filming with a toddler is chaotic and delightful. He’s just irresistible.
If you’re still recovering from a Mexican food coma, there’s a short clip of my caramelized pineapple, bacon, goat cheese guacamole to tide you over — it’s a wild and tasty combo.
And don’t forget: I love you THISMUCH! What caught your eye this week?
Loving this week:
I’m all in for a spicy Thai mint julep — the combination of heat and mint is so refreshing.
Peanut butter coconut protein bites have been on heavy rotation; they’re simple, satisfying, and portable.
Cardamom pistachio banana bread is a must-try — cardamom and pistachio elevate the classic banana loaf into something special.
Orange raspberry margaritas are absolutely gorgeous and perfect for sipping on warm afternoons.
Plant-power sushi bowls are such a clever idea: all the sushi flavors and textures in a bowl format make for an easy, healthy meal.
A passionfruit cordial is so pretty and makes a lovely, fragrant drink for brunch or a casual gathering.
I love the concept of easy, flavored finishing salts — a small sprinkle can transform a dish and they make great homemade gifts.
Honey cupcakes with chamomile buttercream are delicate and charming — a sweet, floral treat for a relaxed celebration.
I’m craving shrimp po’boy fries — all the shrimp and sandwich flavors with a fun, fry-forward twist.
These foodie hats for the Kentucky Derby are pure delight and bring playful style to any derby party.
Raspberry elderflower granita would be a stunning addition to a Mother’s Day table — light, floral, and very pretty.
I’m always in search of a great breakfast sandwich — a reliable morning go-to that hits all the right notes.
What are you loving right now? I always like swapping favorites and picking up new ideas for the week ahead.
