Tuesday Things.

1. Last year at this time I was prepping recipes for when Emilia would be born and at the beginning of August, I shot an entire Thanksgiving spread! Thinking back now, I have no idea how I did it. Pumpkin isn’t even on my radar.

2. While it may not be on my radar, we are approaching a great time of year with all the SCHOOL SUPPLIES! Gosh, that was my favorite time ever and I would beg my mom to take me school supply shopping. Give me all the pens and notebooks and trapper keepers please.

3. Cutest ever yellow cupcakes with chocolate creme fraiche frosting. Ooooh.

4. Yesterday, I noticed that pottery barn has a pbDORM section on their website where the “dorms” look essentially nothing like a dorm and much nicer than my bedroom that is in my home and I am an adult. Feeling rather old.

5. I absolutely love this video on parenting yourself. OMG. I so need to parent myself! No one is coming to push you. Amazing. Should frame it.

6. So many TV notes. Still very much into The Affair and saw that it was renewed! Eeep, so exciting. Watched the Southern Charm reunions and for some reason, they always feel so “real” to me so I can’t believe we have to wait until April for a new season. Who has watched Sharp Objects? I read the book years ago (it’s probably in a note in a Tuesday Things from like six years ago!) and want to watch it even though I’m petrified. And finally! I started OITNB. As usual, the beginning is kind of slow for me. But I’m powering through. Oh oh also – I watched the Nashville finale after boycotting last year. It was cute.

7. Why can’t we just buy one thing at Target? YEP.

8. Does anyone else feel like old instagram might be coming back where we can actually share real life, because now even stories are so curated? Just me? It’s so BORING.

July Favorites: Beauty.

Happy July!

SO crazy to think we’re at the end of it and all the fun fall makeup is just on the horizon.

This month I was away a bit for the book tour and also on vacation. It’s also the month where book tour things slowed down so I didn’t end up wearing as much makeup! There aren’t too many new things I’ve tried but I’m still loving everything from last month. In random old beauty favorites, I started religiously using the Kenra Blow Dry Spray again (I love it so much!) and the Perfect Hair Day styling treatment since I’ve been actually doing my hair so much!

Here are a few things below that really stood out for me this month…

Drunk Elephant D-Bronzi Sunshine Serum. It was worth a re-mention – I am still LOVING this serum. It adds the perfect amount of glow and works in every moisturizer or sunscreen I have tried. I like to use this just with moisturizer and no other makeup – and it really evens out my skin tone. I haven’t tried using it in tinted moisturizer or foundation or anything.

Dr Jart Sun Fluid. Okay, 100% obsessed with this. I’ve used the Supergoop sunscreen on my face for years. But I love all things Dr Jart and when I saw this, just had to try it. It is incredible. If you want something super thin and lightweight on your face or under makeup, this is perfect. It’s not sticky at ALL. Only thing: I wish the SPF was a little higher.

Drunk Elephant The Littles. This isn’t necessarily a new product but if you’re into Drunk Elephant skincare like I am, you’ll adore this for travel. It has everything I use (aside from the Sunday Riley Good Genes) and I’m mad I didn’t buy it earlier in the year. Travels perfectly and the little bag is super cute to repurpose too. I also like that I could refill and reuse the Lala Moisturizer jar.

Bite Beauty Agave Lip Mask in Lavender. Admittedly, I bought one of these years ago and didn’t love it. It was so sticky and didn’t do much in the way of moisture for my lips. But when I saw that there were a bunch of shades, I had to try the lavender. First, the scent is incredible. It’s like ice cream. Second, I love the cool tint this brings to my lips. And third, it is perfect for the summer because it doesn’t dry off in the sun. Really stays on the lips!

Lanolips Coconutter Hand Cream. I’ve been using the lanolips tinted lip balm for a few months after my cousin raved about it and I was so glad to see this at Nordstrom in a trio. My hands have been insanely dry (like weirdly dry for summer!) and this hand cream works super well, dries fairly quickly and smells like HEAVEN. It’s almost silky and the coconut scent is not overwhelming at all.

Becca Highlighter in Parisian Lights. This is another purchase from the Nordstrom anniversary sale and one I adore. I had no intention of buying this gift set but I stopped dead in my tracks while walking through the store and swatched this on my hand. It’s so gorgeous! I love anything with a pink-y highlight and this is just so beautiful. I’m also so glad I bought it because the night before vacation, I dropped my Jouer Skinny Dip Highlight and it shattered into a million pieces. I usually stray from gift sets because I don’t use everything in the set and it ends up being a waste. Here, I really am loving all the things in the set. The lip gloss is awesome too!

Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick in Blushing Dream. Another Nordstrom sale pick and another gift set. But I love the CT lipsticks and this color is the perfect pink for me. Really adore it! The lip liner is awesome too. Not a huge fan of the other shade, so I gave it to a friend!

Simple Human Sensor Mirror. I’ve been looking at this mirror for years because Eddie and I use one like it in our bathroom. And a few months ago the light switch on that mirror broke and we’ve just been too lazy to buy a new one. I grabbed this at the Nordstrom sale too and we.are.obsessed. We both love it so much and no longer leave the light on all night by accident. It’s perfect and so glad we grabbed it!

Annnd that’s a wrap. I can’t wait to hear about what you’re loving this month! And what are you looking forward to in the fall? I sort of want to try the Beauty Blender foundation buuuut it’s matte and I hate foundation. What else should I have my eye on? You guys have the best ideas!

[as usual, none of this is sponsored and all of these products were purchased by me. i am not affiliated with any of the companies above, nor do i accept free products. just love to talk about what i like, makeup junkie to makeup junkie. there are some amazon and general reward style affiliate links above. thank you for being here!]

The Best Summer Panzanella Salad.

I am dubbing this THE SALAD OF THE SUMMER.

This perfect tomato panzanella is by far the most made salad in my kitchen right now, beating out the cheeseburger salad, the poppyseed chicken salad and even the house salad.

Essentially, this has become the NEW house salad. It is so delicious.

When it comes to summer dinner, I am thrilled with tomatoes, basil, corn and maybe some burrata. A drizzle of balsamic glaze. All together or served in meals separately. Add some toast into that mess and I’ve never been happier.

Tastes like hot summer nights and smells like summer too.

And while I’m certain that I may have called the chicken poppyseed salad “the salad of the summer” (okay, it’s not untrue), I should have been more specific and said it was the salad of the beginning of the summer.

And this here, this insane panzanella salad that is classic but totally delicious and something I could eat every single day, is the salad for the rest of the summer.

When tomatoes are bursting with color and flavor and exist as vegetable candy.

I first discovered this recipe early last year from serious eats. It’s everything a true panzanella should be – perfectly toasted bread that is soaked with the dressing and served with the ripest and sweetest juicy tomatoes. DIVINE.

The way it comes together is too good. You salt the tomatoes and let them hang out in a colander over a bowl for a few minutes. All those tomato drippings? The juice? It’s going to become your dressing base. Isn’t that serious brilliance?

I only take a few liberties in the recipe and add some extras, because it’s not like I can help trashing up a good thing.

Oh, oh and! While I’m giving you a recipe for this, I have made it countless times without any recipe. Just last week on vacation with farmers market goodness. It’s truly foolproof.

My ideal version of this panzanella includes grilled sweet corn (it’s oh-so fantastic right now!) and sliced avocado. This salad is filling and satisfying on its own, but if you’d like to take it to another level, chicken or chickpeas would be perfect. Tuna too!

The shallot in the dressing adds an extra pop, and this is coming from someone who doesn’t necessarily want raw onion in her salads. Fresh basil and oregano, chives and garlic round out this plate and I seriously don’t know if there is anything else I love more.

It’s ridiculous in the best (summery) way possible.

The Best Summer Panzanella Salad

Yield: serves 2 to 4

Ingredients:

1 loaf sourdough bread, cut into cubes
3 cups cherry and/or grape tomatoes, halved
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, minced
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup fresh basil, chopped
1 avocado, thinly sliced
2 ears corn, kernels cut from the cob (I like this grilled or fresh! your preference!)
fresh oregano and basil leaves for serving



Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the cubes on a baking sheet. Toss them with olive oil. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until they are just toasted. Set the cubes aside to cool.

While the bread is toasting, place the halved tomatoes in a colander and set it over a large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and toss well. Let the tomato juices collect in the bowl for 15 to 20 minutes, tossing the tomatoes occasionally.

Take the tomato juices and whisk in the garlic, shallots, dijon, vinegar and pepper. Stream in the olive oil while whisking until the dressing emulsifies. This dressing is amazing!

Place the bread cubes, tomatoes and chopped basil in a bowl. Pour about half of the dressing over top and make sure all the bread cubes are coated. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if desired. Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes.

Place the bread and tomato mixture on a large plate and add the corn and avocado. Add on more dressing and toss gently. Add a ton of fresh oregano and basil on top and serve!

Boyne City 2018 Travel Diary.

I can’t help but keep this space here on Crumbs more like a personal photo journal, especially when it comes to my favorite place!

This year, I got SO many questions on insta asking why we come here, where we stay, all that jazz. I listed a lot of our favorites in this post from a few years ago. I’ve been coming here my entire life, my dad has been coming here his entire life, my great grandparents were FROM here, so it all started there.

It’s just my most favorite place ever!

While I’ve always talked about it being my favorite place, I’ve been confident in stating that a lot of that probably has to do with nostalgia. Yes, it’s gorgeous – I mean the water is aqua and turquoise and beautiful! It’s so fresh! But so many of my favorite memories live here and it reminds me a lot of my grandma. So I have been shocked over the last two years at how much Eddie has fallen in love with the place. I never thought anyone else would love it as much as I do (besides my dad!), but Eddie ADORES it too. I’ve never seen him more relaxed than he was on this trip.

Indulge me while I throw this extremely photo-heavy post up here. For the first time, I didn’t even take my DSLR. These are all taken with my iPhone!

Emilia loved her first dip in the lake! But there isn’t much that she doesn’t love.

I love the Boyne City farmers market so much.

Three musketeers! This is Evelyn, my brother and SIL’s adorable babe. She’s so cute that I could just eat her up.

Max’s stance. I die.

Also die over everything at the Boyne City Bakery. It’s SO good. They make crepes too and they’re fantastic.

Funny (but not) story: I’ve been taking pictures of these sunsets since I was around ten years old with disposable kodak cameras. I have been OBSESSED with them my entire life. I would print the photos and hang them in my room. I took the photos to college and taped them to my wall. They’ve always been so pretty and peaceful. And now, it’s amazing, because when I go take pictures of the sunset, there are like 45 other people taking pictures too since we have cameras on our phones!

I no longer look like the only sunset freak.

P.S. but Eddie took that pic of the sunset above. With his phone!

Tried this new-to-me rosé and it’s pretty good!

This is the whitefish from Cafe Santé and it’s my favorite whitefish in the area. SO GOOD. Brown butter lemon sauce. That’s all I have to say.

And these are the pizzas from Cafe Santé! Also delicious.

And this is the little love of my life forever.

Tacos from The Cantina in Charlevoix. Sooooo good.

The best panzanella ever!

I wish you could have seen what it took to get these photos. About three adults jumping up and down and screaming and shaking toys so the kids would laugh at the same time.

THIS WATER!!!

Truffle fries at Bay Harbor are legit.

Kilwins chocolate peanut butter to end the best week ever! xoxo

Currently Crushing On.

Happy Saturday! I’m back, I’m back! Last week I took a quick hiatus from this crushing on series to enjoy vacation. The end of this trip marks the end of constant travel since March! I haven’t been home for more than ten days at a time since March and I am SO EXCITED.

Tomorrow I’ll do a little photo diary recap of our trip. In a few days – July favorites! Oh oh oh and don’t forget that it’s still the Nordstrom sale and I have a bunch of my favorites listed. Long live this amazing summer!

Summer Fridays, Vol 9.

Welcome to the best part of my summer, summer fridays! 

EATING

In years past when I’ve returned from this vacation, I’ve recreated recipes from our favorite restaurant. One of them is this lobster pot pie (to die for!) and the other is this strawberry pizza (I swear it’s not weird!). I reeeeeally want to put both on our menu this week.

STOCKING

My fridge this weekend with all the local sweet corn and tomatoes! Super excited about this season and how fabulous our local produce tastes. First on my list, this hot bacon caprese salad! And then, this summer shrimp and grilled corn carbonara. Followed by this marinated tomato and peach salad and this marinated zucchini ribbon pistachio salad. Yessss.

SIPPING

On this rainbow coconut water spritzer all weekend. Vacation detox begins now! Also eyeing up this grapefruit chia refresher. Love that drink.

TRAVELING

Home from my faaaaavvvvorite place ever today. So many of  you always ask about where we eat/visit/play while we are here and a few years ago, I made a list. Growing up, this vacation always signaled the end of summer because we went a week before school started. I love that right now, we still have almost 8ish weeks of summer left.

READING

Barely even scratched the surface of the reading that I wanted to do on the beach (hellllo kids) but I did start The Summer I Met Jack! It’s on my reading list so I’m getting through it.

LISTENING

Nonstop to the newest workout playlist! Going to be on full blast over the next month. Link your favorite workout playlist below!

WORKING

Out to this 7 minute workout app. Speaking of the above. This is AMAZING when you’re short on time or feel like you don’t have time or feel like you have 2 kids glued to your body at all times. You can do it anywhere!

WEARING

This week I basically lived in this Lilly Pulitzer cover up dress that I mentioned in my favorites last month. My first memories of Lilly were from vacationing here in Michigan and shopping in Harbor Springs with my grandma and I’m always reminded of that. And last night, the weather dipped down to 59 (I secretly love it so much!) and I lived in my shep shirt all day. It’s the best.

SHOPPING

I’m really excited to be back because I might do one more round of looking at the Nordstrom anniversary sale. And I’m also loving everything at Athleta right now and want to grab some new workout gear! My SIL wore this swimsuit from there this week and I’m obsessed.

FEELING

Pretty rejuvenated after this trip even though I had trouble relaxing at the beginning. One of the things I’ve learned with having kids is that when I have a moment to relax or take a breath, I have to do it right then and ENJOY. I might be doing something else at the time but when the moment presents itself, I have to soak it up. It’s a tricky thing with unpredictable baby/kid schedules but it’s great once I just LIVE in that second. You know? Finding those pockets of time have been key. Especially for me who has a difficult time relaxing.

All the rosé and hearts! xo

Pinot Peach Sangria.

Welcome to the millionth sangria recipe on this blog!

A pinot grigio sangria, a pinot peach sangria, all made up with pretty summer fruit and bubbles ready to go for the weekend.

I can’t help it! 

It was only a matter of time before threw peaches into sangria and tried to make it a thing.

You might remember that last year I started using an entire bag of FROZEN peaches in almost all of my sangrias because it’s an excellent way to keep the pitcher cold without watering down the booze.

So just how on earth is this one different then?

WELL.

Here, we’re using some peach nectar and fresh peaches of course. Only pinot grigio and brandy – and frozen green grapes as well.

Normally, I couldn’t care less about green grapes but if they are frozen and thrown into a vat of wine, I’m in.

This is so super light and FRESH.

Like, fresh a la the scene in Bridesmaids where Kristen Wiig is sipping her lemonade in the car at the baby shower. You know.

All obnoxiousness aside, this is another fruity summer punch (hello, lavender sangria) that I’m just over the moon about. It’s not like we NEED a bunch of different sangria and punch ideas, but it sure is fun. Especially if you get bored. Often.

Not like I know anything about that.

But really!

A special sangria for every occasion? That sounds like my speed.

Pinot Peach Sangria

Yield: serves 4 to 6

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

2 (10 ounce) bags frozen peaches
1 1/2 cups frozen green grapes, some sliced, some whole
1 (750mL) bottle pinot grigio
1 1/2 cups peach nectar (can be found near the shelf-stable juices in your grocery store) or juice
1/2 cup brandy
1/2 cup grand marnier liqueur
2 cups club soda, plain or whatever flavor (peach!) you’d like
2 peaches, sliced for garnish



Directions:

Place the frozen peaches and grapes in the bottom of your pitcher.

Pour the wine, peach nectar, brandy, grand marnier, and club soda over top and stir. This tastes great when it sits in the fridge and “marinates” for a bit. But you can also serve it right away! The frozen fruit acts like ice cubes and keeps it super cold.

Serve over ice and garnish with fresh peach slices.

Easy Weeknight Bacon Broccoli Pasta.

This is some super easy comfort food right here. Like embarrassingly easy.

Bacon broccoli pasta probably isn’t something you’d expect to see here… yet here we are. 

Remember a few months ago when I got weirdly into broccoli? I’ve been making this exact dish since then!

It has sat in blog purgatory for a long time because I didn’t necessarily deem it worthy of sharing. Not because it isn’t good enough (it’s so ridiculously good!) but because it’s just so simple. And then I made it again right before we left for vacation and I was like I HAVE TO TELL THEM.

So easy! So spicy. So freaking good.

I first started making this pasta back in March, before I even started the book tour for The Pretty Dish! It’s one of those recipes that you can throw together with minimal ingredients and one that you can also easily add things to. Be it leftovers, rotisserie chicken, whatever is in the fridge or whatever the heck else Eddie wants in the bowl.

You’re going to:

Fry the bacon crumbles!

Then remove them for a second while you add in the broccoli and cook it all in that bacon-y goodness. Add lotssss of garlic.

Toss the cooked pasta in too.

Add shakes of crushed red pepper and shaved parmesan.

Eat it right out of the pan.

YES YES YES.

Sounds like a plan to me.

Easy Weeknight Bacon Broccoli Pasta

Yield: serves 2 to 4

Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients:

8 ounces pasta, cooked
4 slices bacon, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups broccoli florets
1/4 cup freshly shaved/grated parmesan
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
lots of fresh cracked black pepper
extra virgin olive oil, if needed for drizzling



Directions:

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the directions.

While the water is boiling, heat a large skillet or saucepan over medium-low heat and add the bacon. Cook until it is browned, crispy and all the fat is rendered, then removed the bacon with a slotted spoon and set it on a paper towel to drain and excess grease.

Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease from the pan and turn the heat up to medium. Stir in the garlic and the broccoli florets and cook, tossing occasionally, for about 5 minutes until the broccoli is bright green and slightly soft. Add a lot of fresh cracked pepper and if you’d like, a tiny pinch of salt. I find that I usually don’t need the salt because the bacon grease is salty!

At this time, you can toss in the cooked pasta. Toss well to combine every and keep it over low heat. If it seems too dry, you can drizzle in the remaining bacon grease or you can just drizzle some olive oil on top and toss well. Add in the parmesan shavings and crushed red pepper. Toss well. Serve it!

Tuesday Things.

1. I don’t know why I can’t pack like a normal person. I make lists and I still overpack and it looks like we are leaving our house with… well… our entire house. Or I severely underpack (even with my list!) and end up wearing the same thing!

2. Possibly one of the best things I’ve ever tasted: a pistachio croissant. Blows almond out of the water. Oh how I wish I had the patience to figure this one out at home. But thank god I don’t.

3. HELLO cookie dough ice cream sandwiches. I just can’t. OMG.

4. Years later, it’s still one of my favorite weeks: shark week! Except I forget year after year about how fake and boring and sci-fi it is now.

5. When you feel all sorts of toxic emotions, you can turn them into something positive? Innnnteresting.

6. Can we please talk about the Southern Charm reunion?! I’m all caught up and I watched the reunion and the love around Kathryn made me so freaking happy! Can’t even wait for Thursday night. Now do I bother watching the other versions of the show?

7. The perfect feel good routine. Yep. Going to need a vacation from this vacation.

8. Speaking of, I’m having the hardest time trying to relax on this vacation! Which is kind of exacerbated by worrying about how I’m NOT actually relaxing. It’s a super fun cycle.

9. You have unlimited funds but only for housing. Where would you buy a house?

Salted Honey Lavender Nuts.

Today, we’re making snack mix! Lavender honey nuts are where it’s AT.

You know I’m all about the snack mix when it comes to pool time, and since I’m on vacation this week, I figured it would be the perfect time to share these lavender honey nuts that you can make in an instant at home.

No oven required!

You make ‘em on the stovetop, let ‘em sit and then devour. Serve to all your friends! Snack away!

So, I still have SO many book tour stops to tell you guys about, and I’m trying to remember which stop it was that we almost ordered this lavender honey snack mix. I’m pretty sure it’s when we were in Atlanta at Leon’s Full Service and they were the “lug nuts of the day,” but we passed for the grilled bread instead. Because… grilled bread.

And it came with homemade ricotta so there is no beating that.

But the minute we ordered it, I was thinking “I have to make those nuts at home!” Then I instantly typed the note into my phone.

My notes section of my iPhone is just like Gretchen Wieners’ hair. You know.

And here we are.

Because I clearly cannot get enough of lavender right now. It had to happen.

Also,  some form of nuts are often my go-to when I need an energy boost with the kids because they are so satisfying but quick to grab and go.

I used what I had on hand in my pantry: whole raw almonds, cashews and brazil nuts. You can use whatever the heck you have though, and that’s what makes this so fun. And easy!

After a quick stovetop toast and glaze with the lavender infused honey, these take a baking sheet nap and then they are ready. Roasted, sweet and salty.

Totally addictive too.

I’m obsessed with this idea not only for snacking at home or during the week or on the run, but for party snacks too. Especially if you’re having a dinner party. These are so perfect to put out with a wedge of cheese and some olives.

In fact, I just want to eat that mess as a happy hour snack today. Let’s do it.

Salted Honey Lavender Nuts










Ingredients:

1/4 cup honey
1 1/2 teaspoons dried culinary lavender petals
8 ounces raw almonds
8 ounces raw cashews
8 ounces raw brazil nuts
1/2 teaspoon flaked sea salt



Directions:

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Heat the honey and lavender in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it’s melted and thin. Remove it from the heat and let it cool slightly.

In a large saucepan or skillet, heat the nuts over low heat. Toss constantly until they are fragrant and slightly toasted. Remove them from the heat and stir in the lavender honey. Stir until all the nuts are coated.

Spread the nuts out on the parchment paper in a single layer. Sprinkle with the flaked salt. Let them sit and dry and cool for 1 to 2 hours. Break them apart and either serve or package up for snacks!
