Currently Crushing On: What I’m Loving Right Now

img 97738 1

Happy weekend!

This week on the blog I shared a few new recipes: a comforting sweet potato chicken noodle soup, crunchy pretzel-crusted buffalo chicken bites and a tangy pickle-lovers hummus. If you missed them, they’re all up and ready to try.

I also posted my roundup of what I read in January — a mix of fiction and nonfiction that kept me entertained and inspired.

My winter favorites and a selection of Valentine’s Day picks are updated and available for anyone looking for gift ideas or seasonal essentials. I’ve also rounded up some cute Valentine’s things I love for easy browsing.

All of my current favorite products are collected in my Amazon storefront and my LTK shop, so you can find the items I use most in one place.

There’s a new weekly menu this week, plus a fresh peek inside our everyday life with a new “week in the life” post. If you’re curious about what we’re cooking, eating and doing, those posts have lots of detail and photos.

You can now order a copy of my upcoming cookbook, Easy Everyday. It would mean so much to me if you picked up a copy — I poured a lot of simple, reliable recipes into it and I’m excited to share them.
