This week felt a little off with Halloween landing on Monday, so I’m especially glad it’s the weekend — and the weekend before my birthday, no less. We’re celebrating with a few birthday-related plans and little treats. How about you? Any fun plans coming up?

If you love makeup, don’t miss that the Sephora VIB sale started recently. I may have kicked off my birthday celebrations a bit early with some of the sale finds.

Earlier in the week I shared short videos of two favorites: our easy weeknight chicken tacos and a ridiculously good pumpkin-ricotta gnocchi. Both are simple, comforting, and have been on rotation around here.

Favorites from around the web this week

That creamy red potato soup looks absolutely dreamy — full of warmth and texture.

Smoky tomato lentils cooked in coconut milk are calling my name; the combination sounds rich and cozy.

I’m obsessed with the idea of a one-skillet gnocchi dish with Brussels sprouts and chickpeas — hearty, fast, and perfect for cool evenings.

This playful take on eclairs is irresistible — fun, over-the-top, and exactly the kind of dessert that makes me smile.

Eggs Florentine served in pullman bowls is such a beautiful, comforting breakfast or brunch option — elegant but homey.
