Nothing In The House To Eat? No Problem!

During the first year after we got married, Kendrick spent months at a time on tour, which meant that I spent lots of evenings eating dinner alone. And of course I missed him a ton, but the truth is that there's something really cozy and satisfying about making exactly what you want...

Burgers & Bracelets

Whenever I run into my friend Verena (EOC of this great site), as I did at yesterday's Tory Burch Pre-Fall 2011 Press Preview, we get to chatting about our mutual love of truly spectacular burgers. (Really, we do talk about - or eat - burgers pretty much every time we see each other. I love her.)

Holy Banana-Nutella Bread

I discovered this recipe last Friday on Tumblr, and within half an hour I was at the bodega down the street picking up bananas and Nutella (I had all the other ingredients ready to go).

It May Be Time To Head North

On Saturday morning, Kendrick and I headed upstate to Irvington, in the Hudson Valley, for a sort of half-day-trip/half-tentative-house-hunting-trip. Ever since I was little I've sort of fantasized about living in the Hudson Valley one day. But I never really took it seriously, because...you know, can't take the city girl out of the city, etc etc.
