This is exactly what it looks like. MORE rosé. No — we can never have enough. It’s the heart of summer and this is exactly what we need. I absolutely love a Pimm’s Cup. It’s bright, citrusy and endlessly refreshing — my favorite poolside drink. We’ve been making them for years, and here I swap … Read more

I’ve got the best bowl for you! We’ve been enjoying a surprising stretch of warm weather this week — a late Indian summer that makes fall feel distant. I went to an autumn festival yesterday and it was over 80 degrees. As much as the fall-lover in me protests, this recipe is the perfect bridge … Read more

I need a break from Thanksgiving. Already! That’s what happens when you put out Halloween decor in July. P.S. I am an old lady. When the holidays roll around, I always struggle to decide what to eat for dinner. My head gets so full of cookies, appetizers, cocktails, stuffing and twice-baked potatoes that normal weeknight … Read more

I used to dislike coffee, but over time I forced myself to try it and now I actually enjoy it—coffee shops, iced drinks, and all the ritual.
