Southern panache for your life
For week two of the One Room Challenge (to see inspiration and read post one, head here), the only thing I did was connect with suppliers and order textiles. The guest bedroom had just been left to be blah and its gray and white color palette wasn’t the most inspiring. For this space, I’m imagining
This year, I’ve decided to participate in the One Room Challenge. If you aren’t familiar with the One Room Challenge, it’s a virtual design challenge that inspires you to finish that space in your home. We have a lot of spaces that have been left to hemming and hawing after our renovation and it’s time to nip those projects
I’ve never made Chicken n Dumplins soup at home before. This recipe was an amalgamation of what I had on hand and reminiscing flavors of dishes I’ve eaten once before. While this may be called “Cheater Chicken n Dumplins Soup” the only place we’re cheating on is the dumplings and replacing them with gnocchi. The

Highlands NC is a beautiful mountain town set at what the founders at the time thought would be the ideal intersection of Midwestern and NorthEastern train travel. Little did they realize that their hamlet of mountain heaven was set between mountains that were difficult to blast through and thus the railroad intersection never came to
I’m not here to convince you that gluten-free is better than gluten-full. I don’t think food technology is there yet where a croissant can be replicated with gluten-free flour but if I had to choose whether to eat this cake with gluten or gluten-free flour, I would go gluten-free flour all the way. This gluten
Beignets- probably the reason why we have the funnel cake. Beignets are a totally acceptable “breakfast treat” to indulge in on the weekend unlike their fair-fodder friend. When our trip to New Orleans was canceled last April thanks to Covid, we decided to make the best of it and recreate our favorite New Orleans recipes
In today’s episode of “thing’s I’ve been doing wrong until I consulted an expert” I am here to help you not make the same mistake that I have when it comes to wood floor care and rugs. As you may have seen from this post, I love sourcing my rugs from a mix of places
