Healthy Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Wings
Healthy Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Wings

Being a midwestern girl at heart, I will never not have a weakness for any and everything buffalo. Growing up in Ohio, buffalo wings are kind of a major food group (or so it seems to me), and they are without a doubt both me and my husband Brett’s favorite guilty pleasure indulgence.

I’ve been wanting to come up with a go-to recipe for a healthy take on fried chicken wings that would still hit the spot when we’re both craving comfort food forever, and I think I’ve finally nailed it. Today I’m super excited to share my recipe for Healthy Baked Buffalo Cauliflower Wings with you!

I’ve made these a lot lately and they are honestly SO. GOOD. They definitely don’t disappoint in the way that some healthy takes I’ve tried in the past tend to.

Room Tour: Kate's Studio Home Office
Room Tour: Kate's Studio Home Office

Although I work mostly from home under ‘normal’ circumstances, like a lot of us, the current climate of the times has me spending 100% of my working hours at home. Kate here, and today I’m excited to share another room tour wth you - my studio and home office!

As a multi-faceted creative, having my own space to work on the many different projects that come with my job is totally essential. I haven’t always had my own designated room for work and music recording, so it’s been a game changer in this house to have this space.

10 Black-Owned Businesses To Shop and Follow
10 Black-Owned Businesses To Shop and Follow

Last week, we took some time to pause sharing our regular content in order to listen, learn, and hold space for the voices that need to be amplified right now.

While we’re encouraged and inspired to see the way many have come together in our country this past week to fight for racial justice, we also know that the fight against systemic racism is by no means a one-week social media event and that there remains an immense amount of work to do.

We are committed to doing the work, to learning what it truly means to be actively anti-racist, and to amplifying the voices of black creators, artists, and dreamers in as many ways as we can.

Room Tour: Kate's Main Bedroom
Room Tour: Kate's Main Bedroom

Since we’re all spending a significant amount of time on the home front lately, I thought I’d start sharing some much requested room tours from my LA home. Kate here, and I’m excited to share our master bedroom with you guys today!

My husband Brett and I have lived in a ton of different apartments and parts of the city over the years (in addition to spending a few years in Nashville and one in Paris), and I have to say that this is the first house we’ve ever lived in that has all the elements of what feels like a ‘grown up’ master bedroom.

It has tons of natural light, enough room for a king bed (which has never even come close to happening before), hardwood floors, and tons of original charm. I absolutely love it!

How To Wear The Pantone 2020 Color Of The Year (And Shop Small)
How To Wear The Pantone 2020 Color Of The Year (And Shop Small)

Every year I wait in anticipation to see what color Pantone will choose as their color of the year (proud design nerd here) and it’s always fun to find ways to work that color into my life. It felt like this year there was extra pressure to choose a great color for 2020, because after all, this is the debut of a new decade!

As far as I’m concerned, Pantone did not disappoint. Turns out the color of the year for 2020 is Classic Blue, and it seems to be a crowd pleaser. After all, we’re talking about the color of blue jeans, the ocean, and one of three colors on the freaking American flag. Feels like a good choice to kick off the 20s.

I usually do some kind of roundup of favorite ways to rock the Pantone color of the year, and this year I thought I’d focus on independent designers and small labels.

4 Low-Maintenance, Easy House Plants To Try
4 Low-Maintenance, Easy House Plants To Try

house plants have had a major moment over the past few years it seems - no well-styled living room on my feed is without them, and they really do bring an element of organic softness to any space (not to mention better air quality!). but we all face the same dilemma - which indoor plants are the hardest to kill?

as someone who has searched high and low for the easiest, most low-maintenance house plants, I can confirm that they really do exist. today i’m sharing some of my current faves and where I have them in my house. and bonus - most of them are also low-light room friendly!

if you too are in search of the easiest, most low-maintenance house plants here is our list of four current faves:

Why I Started Printing My Photos (5 Ideas To Try)
Why I Started Printing My Photos (5 Ideas To Try)

After replacing my phone last week due to yet another phone shattering episode, I glanced at the number of photos on my camera roll to discover that there were - wait for it - 22,375 pictures in there. The photos date back to 2017, but STILL - that number is ridiculous.

This same digital photo overload is what prompted me to start rethinking my photo organization when I first started printing my photos back in 2015. Now that we all pretty much have a super sophisticated camera in our pocket wherever we go, we take a LOT of pictures. and I’m not just talking about the 48 selfies it takes to get a good one (been there). We’re capturing so many aspects of our lives every day, but the question is what on earth do we actually DO with all of them?

is there anything better than an amazing chip dip recipe? according to me, there absolutely is not. whether it’s game day, cheat day, or #selfcaresunday, this creamy chip dip is guaranteed to seriously elevate the occasion.

ever since I can remember, every single family holiday, get-together, or gathering of any kind has always had one thing in common: cheat day chip dip. I can’t imagine a party of any size or shape without it, and every time I’ve brought this chip dip to someone’s party people have absolutely freaked out. it is THAT good.

How To Keep Jewelry Organized On Your Dresser
How To Keep Jewelry Organized On Your Dresser

something i’ve really noticed about myself over the past couple of years is that if there is a blank surface in the house - the coffee table, the kitchen counter, the dining room table etc - it will probably inevitably end up becoming a ‘dump zone.’ just what is a dump zone you ask? a zone where pretty much everything that shouldn’t be there ends up getting dumped. it drives me CRAZY.

when i finally found an apartment with enough room to fit this dresser last year, i knew i wanted it to look beautifully styled but most importantly be functional. since my closet is so small that i actually can’t stand up in it (house tour coming soon with pics), my dresser top is the only sensible spot in the house to store jewelry.

Five Friday Faves
Five Friday Faves

happy friday!

the sunshine is finally back here in LA, which means everyone is now only super stressed on the freeways instead of being insanely emotionally off-the-rails stressed - which is how all angelenos are in the rain. i’m excited to do some more hiking this weekend and bounce around the city in pursuit of my next favorite taco truck.

here are five favorite things i’m loving this month:

Roundup: Holiday Cookie Hotlist
Roundup: Holiday Cookie Hotlist

it's about that time to break out all that baking gear that you never use during the rest of the year. making holiday cookies is awesome, and i feel like it's one of those situations where the calories just don't count. maybe you're a seasoned holiday baking pro, or maybe you're like me and watch youtube tutorials, mess up your kitchen, get super frustrated and go down the street and buy store cookies and pretend you made them. either way, here are 10 holiday cookie recipes that we're super excited to attempt this season.

7 Fresh and Festive Friendsgiving Ideas You Have to Try
7 Fresh and Festive Friendsgiving Ideas You Have to Try

i’m spending some time back in the US right now for the holiday months, and with thanksgiving a week away it’s basically full-on holiday season mode here. since most of my stuff is in storage (RIP to my poor nespresso machine in the very, very back of the unit behind piles of boxes) and i’m crazy disorganized at the moment, sadly i won’t get to host a friendsgiving this year. that said, i’ve always loved the idea- and whether you’re planning to have a friendsgiving yourself or you’re just looking for some fresh ideas for this year’s thanksgiving, we rounded up some fresh and festive ideas to try.

Easy Rotisserie Chicken Thai Coconut Curry (Whole30 & Paleo!)
Easy Rotisserie Chicken Thai Coconut Curry (Whole30 & Paleo!)

nothing will teach you how to improvise quite like a Parisian kitchen - at least that’s been my experience living here for six months. our apartment has a teeny tiny little (though very cute!) kitchen, and it’s nearly impossible for both me and my husband to be in there at the same time. since the “oven” in our place is pretty much a countertop convection thing that is incredibly janky, i’ve been trying my hand at as many simple stovetop recipes as possible, and this one is my new favorite.
