Eight Knives So Good They Made the Cut in My Airstream Kitchen

I have a confession: I’m a knife snob. On Instagram stories a few weeks ago, I shared about the knives I’m taking on the Airstream with me, and y’all were shocked my knife snobbery. But hear me out.

My Coffee Table Book Obsession

Do you ever wonder how long interior design magazines have been around? I do. I haven’t yet found the answer to that question, but I do know with nearly 100% certainty that for as long as interior design magazines have been around, they’ve shown off beautiful coffee table books. I’m obsessed with coffee table books.

I put on the Swimsuit

I am a travel junkie at heart. I am one of those people who would totally take my kids out of school for a year and travel the world. Maybe one day I will! A lot of our traveling the past couple of years, especially with three little ones, has felt more like trips than vacations. Seaside, Florida is that one place where we go every year that actually feels like a vacation. We rent a beach house for a week and we have zero problem unplugging. We go about the day with no real schedule. We go for bike rides, swim in the pool, and play by the beach. Everything is in walking distance. We eat good food and each day the kids pick a treat, either a snow cone, ice cream, or something from the local candy shop.

However, I received a call I never expected to receive from someone I deeply admire in this industry, Holly Chapple. She invited my husband and me to her farm (Hope Flower Farm) and we immediately made babysitting arrangements for the kids and jumped on the next plane to Virginia. If you follow Holly on Instagram, then you totally know what to expect when meeting her ...
