It’s no secret that I’m the cooking novice of the CS Team. What the rest of the team doesn’t know is that I’ve been secretly upping my game in the kitchen with Plated for a few months. It’s a personalized subscription meal service that allows even beginners like me to cook restaurant-worthy meals at home […]
I’ll never forget the night before Will and Kate’s wedding. I was pulling another late night at the ad agency I worked for, and mentioned to a co-worker that I had to get up super early the next day to watch the wedding live. “I can’t believe you’re actually getting up to watch that,” he […]
For me, an afternoon snack needs to be two things: crunchy and salty! I browsed Pinterest until I found my perfect healthy snack recipe to try — this one for rosemary and basil zucchini chips. I put my own twist on the recipe by using thyme instead of rosemary and basil, and also made some […]
This year’s Mother’s Day celebration was all about creating a relaxing experience through aromatics. I created a custom gift basket complete with instructions for an aromatic ritual, which began with burning a rose and sage smudge stick that we made ourselves. This little DIY couldn’t be easier, and makes a great gift for moms, bridesmaids, […]
There’s really only one rule for a great Mother’s Day: whatever you do, it should be relaxing. This year we’ve been thinking a lot about self-care, and fun little relaxation rituals you can perform in your own home. That lead us to the idea for this year’s Mother’s Day get together — a mother/daughter spa-inspired […]
May is Camille’s favorite month, and we tend to agree. It’s the end of the school year, the beginning of swim season, and the absolute BEST time to be outside on a patio in Austin! Between Cinco de Mayo celebrations, crawfish boils, Mother’s Day and more, we have plenty of good reasons to celebrate during […]
The fashion industry loves the occasional fling with cowboy boots. It seems like every 6 or 7 years, there they are again. But here in Texas, boots are a lifelong love affair. We have junker pairs from thrift shops, high fashion versions from Neimans, and (for the serious collectors) custom creations from legendary bookmakers like […]
You’re going to need a nap after.
Life on a farm never looked so good.
We may have finally reached zen.
Skip the traffic and pedal your way straight to gelato.
Have watercolors, will travel.
We learned to make pasta from scratch, then turned it into an epic meal.
The jasmine covered gazebo alone is unreal.
Just as gorgeous as our favorite movie.
We’re constantly talking about skincare in the office, and it’s truly amazing how different our individual routines and concerns are. That said, we’re all looking for products that make our skin feel healthy, bright, and youthful. And if those products happen to be at an affordable price point, we’re twice as excited. That’s why we […]
The Sunday Scaries. Hangxiety. No matter what you call it, we’ve all been there. Your head is throbbing, you can’t even figure out how to navigate your Favor app (which is further complicated by the fact your eyes are welling up with tears from that stupid Hallmark movie on tv.) All this begs the question: […]
