We have had a gloriously rainy and cloudy couple days here in Arabia, and I have been making a lot of tea. As I was sipping our go-to favorite chai, I decided that I should share it with y’all…only to realize Kirst shared the chai tea recipe YEARS ago! This chai is the best. It […]
Ok, I need a show of hands- how many of you are doing some sort of clean eating/ whole 30/ paleo diet after the holidays? We aren’t doing a full on detox, but we something close to that. This herb dressing is the perfect addition to all sorts of clean eating foods. It goes amazingly […]

It’s hard to believe that it has been a whole year since I was traveling to Idaho in the fall (so gorgeous!) to visit our youngest sister and meet my niece, Adi. Northern Idaho is so beautiful in October- one of my favorite things we did while I was visiting (other than serious cuddle time […]
