We love a good party mix around here! This is a recipe that Austin's family has been making for years and his dad always makes it during the holidays. I look forward to it every year. It's so easy and is the perfect salty snack to munch on during your favorite holiday movies.
Here's everything you need: ...

Fall Tablescape Ideas for Thanksgiving
I'm hosting Thanksgiving this year for my family and wanted to share a few ideas that I'm planning to recreate. I am so excited to have everyone in our home and currently looking for some yummy traditional recipes (drop them in the comments if you have any).

Our Kitchen Details + Dishes
I realized that I haven't actually ever covered a lot of our kitchen details on the blog so better late than never, right? Today's breakdown is simple: I'm linking our decor and dishes that we use most often. Let me know if there's any other area of the house y'all want to see a breakdown for and I'll work on curating those links. ...
5 Things I’m Buying for the House (And They’re on Sale)
I feel like a broken record when it comes to Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Home content but I'm a creature of habit when it comes to shopping the NSale. I always always stock up on candles. That is my #1 recommendation to anyone trying to navigate the sale. ...
12 Things Worth Buying on Amazon
By this point, you guys know I'm a big fan of Amazon - I mean, I think most of us are. Between the pandemic/going out less, the ease of their delivery, shopping for work and family/household stuff, I'm usually putting at least one order in a week. And while I do have good luck with most things, I definitely have sent a lot back. What I mean is while you can find gems on there, there are obviously items that don't live up to your standards too, and I'm pretty choosy with what I end up keeping. ...
Candles Under $20 I Can’t Stop Burning
Alright soooo my candle collection is a little out of hand at this point but when I find a good one, I can't help but to buy one (...or two). Can you blame me? I feel like a lot of women are like this, right? I light a candle at least once a day, usually one in my office while I work and another in the living room or my bathroom in the evening, and love how they can set the mood - let alone let off a nice fragrance. So in my mind, you can just never have enough. ...
7 Ideas for Valentine’s Day In
As I mentioned in this post with Gift Ideas for Valentine's Day, Austin and I usually keep things pretty casual. I think we did the whole Vday dinner out a couple times and realized that with the upcharges for dinner, long waits, and all that, we preferred to stay in. And now that we have George and baby on the way, it feels even more special to stay in and celebrate love at home.
If you're staying in this year, here are some fun ideas that I've come up with to celebrate. Austin and I have actually done a few of these before and I'm thinking we'll go with a cheese board, chocolate tasting and a cute movie with George this year. ...
JANUARY TOP 10
Alright, we survived the first month of the new year! Between announcing the news of the baby and a little staycation for Austin's birthday, this month honestly flew by for me. I loved seeing this month's Top 10 and that you seem to like a mix of high and low prices/items which is how I like to shop. Keep reading for your favorite picks of the month - from Amazon fashion to more home-focused pieces. Remember that you can shop everything I'm posting right here at all times. ...
4 Ways to Style Your Bed
For as much as I like home design and switching up the details of our living room shelves, entryway, etc., I honestly don't change my bedding up too often. I guess that means I love our situation, and I do, but after seeing these linen pillows a couple weeks ago, I immediately had to try them out. From there, I figured I might as well try a few different styles to share with y'all and to see what I liked best. ...
