I’m daydreaming about that beach on this summer Friday!
EATING
With all the tomatoes finally coming in, I’m making heirloom tomato toast with basil whipped feta. It’s a simple, bright bite that’s perfect for hot days. I also need to make my peanut noodles with roasted broccoli again — it’s one of those go-to meals that feels both satisfying and effortless.
DRINKING
Pinot peach sangria has been my drink of the week — fruity and light, full of summer flavors. I’m also loving cold brew coffee soda floats for a fizzy, caffeinated treat.
MAKING
I’m obsessed with a caramelized peach caprese finished with smoked sea salt. I’m in full peach mode right now, and finding organic peaches at ALDI has been a delightful surprise — they’re usually so hard to track down.
BAKING
I baked a blueberry ricotta cake with a lavender glaze recently, and it’s absolutely delicious — moist, fragrant, and not overly sweet.
CRAVING
I keep thinking about watermelon salad wedges topped with blue cheese. It’s refreshing and bright, the kind of dish that makes a hot day feel instantly cooler.
LISTENING
I put together a new workout playlist that’s been the most requested yet. It’s upbeat and perfect for moving through a sweaty summer session.
READING
I just started The Boyfriend Project. What are you reading? I had a slower week of books because I’ve been finishing edits for my next book, but I’m hoping to dive into a couple of novels this weekend. If you want suggestions, my summer reading list is a good starting point.
LOVING
I’m inspired by a recent piece on Latham Thomas and her work with Mama Glow. Her approach to maternal health and wellness is thoughtful and uplifting.
WEARING
I’ve lived in a pair of neon slides this week — they’re great pool slides and perfect for watering plants around the house. It’s funny because I was never into Birkenstocks, but these have become my go-to. I’m also loving cozy tie-dye pajamas so I can match Emilia.
BUYING
My Z Supply obsession continues: a soft, flowy tank has been a wardrobe staple, and I recently bought a breezy dress that’s ideal for hot days and nights. It’s dressier than some of the other pieces I wear and even works well for maternity styling — a friend tried it during her pregnancy and loved it.
SHARING
I released a new video for a melon mosaic salad. It’s light, refreshing, and perfect for a summer gathering or an easy weeknight dinner.
PREPPING
I prepped a ricotta jam jar for the weekend and tucked it in the fridge — give me a crusty baguette and I’m set.
