Currently Crushing On: Things and People I Can’t Stop Loving

currently crushing on

Happy weekend!

This week on the blog I shared summer honey chipotle chicken quesadillas. I also posted cherry cheesecake cobbler bars, our favorite pesto recipe and a new Summer Fridays roundup.

You can find my July favorites, along with my picks from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. It’s the last weekend for the sale, so if you’ve been watching it, now’s the time to shop.

I also rounded up everything I read in July.

There’s a new weekly menu and a peek at a week in our life if you want meal inspiration or a behind-the-scenes look at our routine.

The Everyday Dinners cookbook club on Facebook is thriving. If you own the cookbook, request to join the group — we’ve just started a new spring cooking challenge. It’s a welcoming community and a great place for recipe ideas and support.
