10 Easy One-Pot Meals For Fall
I love this time of year. Come September, I’m over sweating and rosé, and while I don’t do pumpkin spice, I think I look very nice in sweaters. I also like boots. And apples. And NEW TV!! What can I say? It’s the most wonderful time of the yearrrrrr. (I know the Christmas people will…
Read MoreSafari Packing Tips and FAQs
A couple months ago, my roommate and I packed a pair of matching soft-sided duffel bags and set off on a wild African safari and beach honeymoon. Everything was magic. Since I’ve already given you the rundown on our itinerary and bombarded you with a shameless amount of sunset and baby animal pics, I thought we’d tackle…

Just to echo the general sentiment on the Internets right now… How the hell is it already Labor Day??!!! I’m heading up to Maine tomorrow, and while I’m giddy at the thought of being surrounded by my favorite people in my happy place, I feel a little bit sad and a lot alarmed that the…
Read MoreSafari Honeymoon Recap and Itinerary
Back in June, Logan and I packed our (shockingly small, soft-sided) bags and headed off on a multi-country African safari honeymoon adventure. We decided to wait on honeymooning until roughly 8 months post-nup for a few reasons, including: a.) we knew we would be exhausted post-wedding, b.) neither of us was able to take consecutive…

Greetings, friends!! As you can see, things look a teensy bit different around here today, and all I can say is…HALLELUJAH. It feels surreal that this blog has now been around for well over seven years. (How? I am old now?!) I started it on a whim while I was maiming myself enrolled at Le…
Read MoreChicken Taco Salad with Grilled Peaches and Creamy Chipotle Dressing
I feel like I’m living my life in a mild time warp these days, and it’s making me very happy. First, I’ve been shamelessly re-watching The OC while recipe testing for Dude Diet Dos, which is truly the trashiest of joys. So much teen angst, low-rise jean action, and nostalgia—I can’t seem to get enough.…

I’ve always been a big list maker. I’m just that type of person. I also tend to make said lists on random scraps of paper and Post-Its and then promptly lose them. I’m also that type of person. Luckily, my summer bucket list is pretty much the same every single year, and I’ve committed it…

I’m currently taking a little bit of a breather from recipe testing for Dude Diet Dos because…well, I just needed a breather. I’m hoping that a little time away from the DDD test kitchen will help me gain some perspective on the recipes I’ve already developed and come up with some more fresh and funky…
Read MoreGrilled Hot Dogs with Peach-Jalapeño Salsa
I feel like you may be surprised to learn this fun fact about your weird blog lady, but I LOVE hot dogs. They taste delicious, sure, but it’s also a nostalgia thing. I was a psychotically picky eater as a kid, and hot dogs were one of the few non-beige food items I would eat.…

If you’re reading this… I’m honeymooning on the beach in Mozambique. What’s new with your weird blog lady, you ask? I mean, where to begin??! Everything is magic, so let’s just hit the highlights. Last week, Logan and I bungee jumped over Victoria Falls. I wasn’t scared, and even though it looks extremely painful when…

Back in April, my roommate and I headed to Tulum for a little spring break (WHOOOOO). Since we booked this getaway extremely last minute after doing next to no research, our hotel choice had a 50/50 chance of being regrettable, but I wasn’t overly concerned. Don’t get me wrong, I love me a great boutique…
Read More40+ Recipes for the Fourth of July
Heyo, friends! We’re still two full weeks out from the Fourth of July, but I know at least some of you are crazy menu planners and will appreciate that this is the most on top of a holiday roundup I’ve been in Domesticate Me’s history. I’d love to say that I’m just a super organized…
