Currently Crushing On: Who and Why You’re Attracted Now

currently crushing on

Hello weekend!

This week on the blog I shared a few new recipes and favorites. I posted a crunchy chickpea salad, pumpkin bread with a chai crumble, my October favorites, and a fun cheeseburger puff pastry pizza.

It’s Sephora sale time — I’ve put together a favorites list to help you shop my top picks for the season.

You can find all my go-to products in my Amazon storefront and my LTK shop. I also have holiday gift guides and curated lists in both places to make shopping easier this year.

There’s a new weekly menu to help plan dinners and a fresh “week in the life” post if you want a peek into our everyday routine.

If you’re cooking from The Everyday Dinners cookbook, come join the Facebook cookbook club. It’s a warm community full of recipe ideas, support, and inspiration — request to join if you have the book, or pick up a copy and jump in.

WHAT I’M LOVING THIS WEEK

White chocolate black cocoa cookies are so addictive — a must-bake for cookie lovers.

Triple chocolate muffins are next on my list; they look unbelievably rich and chocolatey.

A BBQ beer beef stew sounds like the perfect cozy dinner for chilly nights.

I’m definitely making slow-cooker Mexican chicken carnitas — easy, flavorful, and great for tacos.

Roasted carrots topped with candied pecans and goat cheese make a beautiful, flavorful side dish.

Use leftover Halloween candy to whip up monster cookies — such a fun way to use excess sweets.

It’s gingerbread house season — hosting a little decorating party is always a blast.

Apple hand pies are adorable and portable, perfect for fall gatherings or lunchboxes.

Roasted garlic tomato basil soup hits the comfort-food spot—simple and satisfying.

Making an easy overnight no-knead bread is on my to-do list; fresh-baked bread with minimal effort is always a win.

Pomegranate barbecue pork sandwiches with roasted squash and coleslaw sound like a bright, flavorful dinner option.

Perfect roasted fingerling potatoes are an effortless side that pairs with almost anything.

Burger salads are an obsession—think all the flavors of a burger in a lighter form.

I’m craving a melty, cheesy pizza dip — the ultimate party snack.
