“If human love does not carry a man beyond himself it is not love;
If love is always discreet, always wise, always sensible and calculating,
Never carried beyond itself-
it is not love at all...
It may be affection or warmth of feeling, but it has not the true nature of love in it.”

Have you felt the slightest whisper of fall air? I have... and I had me remembering that this is my most favorite time of year.
•
Yes, I love the flavors and the cool and the smells and the pumpkins, but I really, really love that people slow down enough to spend more time in their kitchens, preparing delicious things and gathering around their tables together.
•
So here’s another delicious, hearty, and easy recipe to add to the list to make this season.
•
Cabot Cheddar, Bacon & Apple Stuffed Pork Chops combine a heaping helping of my favorite fall flavors, and are a sure crowd pleaser.

“There is magic in the little world, home; it is a mystic circle that surrounds comforts and virtues never known beyond its hallowed limits.” -Robert Southey
•
After a week away, I’m sinking into the warm bath of home comforts. Thankful for this mystic circle that brings rest, renewal, and repurpose. From the baby hugs, the liturgy-like routines, the well worn bedsheets, and the faithful cups of coffee.
•
Grateful for the magic.

q: why did gretchen cross the road?
•
a: because vince vaughn was on the other side covered in pesto.
•
This was my very favorite joke my hilarious friend Carrie told in the 90s. Because it was true. Pesto and Vince Vaughn were my true loves.
•
My love for pesto has been carried into the millennium. I would eat almost anything slathered in it.
•
Sadly, I’m not sure Vince Vaughn has aged as well as my everlasting pesto love. 💚😬
•
Stay tuned for this Classic Pesto recipe coming soon to my site!

When you have two of your kiddos’ birthdays within one week, it feels like Christmas in late August.
So many toys, so many candies, so much cake.
So many happy kids, so many smiles, so many squeals of wonder.
It was a good weekend.✨

“The pop tart tasted like freedom and rebellion and independence.” - Lorelai Gilmore
Because I trust everything she says and because these are delicious, grain-free, and pretty.

“Life changes in the instant. The ordinary instant.”
•
And just like that summer is over and it’s time to send off my hearts to a new school. I am holding on to hope and prayer and trust that this will be a great year, with great new friends, and great growth for us all. But while believing this greatness, I also hold my breath for them during these first days, while the new wears off and that great is revealed.
•
Are your kids starting at new schools? Do you celebrate or rock yourself in the corner a little when the school year starts?
