Currently Crushing On: What’s Trending in Celebrity and Pop Culture

currently crushing on I howsweeteats.com

Happy Saturday! What a week — I’m in Chicago today for a book signing with The Pretty Dish and hoping spring finally makes an appearance.

This week on the blog I shared my April beauty favorites ahead of the Sephora sale, along with a recap of 24 hours in Boston for The Pretty Dish. I also posted a quick guide on how to meal prep for a full week with recipes from The Pretty Dish in just over an hour.

We’ll be in Los Angeles for a few days after Chicago, and next week I have signings in Pittsburgh on Wednesday (Erin from The Almond Eater is joining to talk about styling and photographing the book) and in Cleveland on Thursday. Check the Pretty Dish book tour schedule for details.

If you haven’t ordered your copy yet, I’d love for you to pick one up and join the book club — it’s been such a fun community to be part of.

Have a wonderful weekend! xo
