Well friends, I saved this gift guide for last because it’s loaded up with the stuff that I would most want to receive as a gift. This one was so much fun to put together. I hope you find some great picks for your kids, friends, or simply your inner baker. Go forth and gift!

If you know me, you know I’m a beauty geek. I love trying new products, whether they’re from the drug store or the latest boutique. Keep your glam friends or teens looking their best with these fun finds. Pick up something for yourself while you’re at it–you deserve it dollface!

It’s tough to shop for fitness buffs because they tend to buy new gear when they need it. I tried to gather up some fun items that your sporty peeps may not have seen before. And if you’re looking for a little fitspiration yourself, I won’t tell if you snap these up for yourself!

Hey folks–here we are, at the start of December and I know you probably feel like I do–as though someone has hit the fast forward button on life. There’s just too much to do! On top of your regular full plate, there are more social obligations, school functions and all that gift buying to do. I’m here to help you with at least one of them–the gifting.

As summer comes to a close, my kids are super excited about heading back to school. It’s a time to reconnect with friends, explore their new classrooms and of course, show off some fun new gear.

Hi Friends–I hope you’ve been having an amazing summer! It’s been hot and humid here in New York City and I’ve been doing everything I can to not use the stove or oven.

Happy 4th of July everyone! I hope you all have wonderful celebrations planned with family and friends, or a relaxing day at the beach. That’s where we’re headed. When we come home, I know we’ll want to cool off with one of these vegan tri-color pops. Make a batch this morning and they’ll be ready this afternoon. Your kids can help by adding ingredients and turning on the blender–with supervision. Enjoy!

Happy almost summer everyone! The weather has been gorgeous here in Brooklyn, NY, and that means we’ve been outside grilling, playing and taking advantage of these fleeting, perfect days. Another thing that’s here and gone in a minute is rhubarb. These super tart stalks are actually a vegetable, but we usually don’t think of them as that since we’re always pairing it with sweet fruit.

I am a huge fan of farro, aka emmer. Have you tried it yet? It’s kind of like barley, but the grain is bigger and has a nuttier flavor. Similar to barley, farro is a whole grain with a chewy texture and can be used in both savory and sweet recipes. Farro is an ancient variety of wheat that is still used throughout Italy and has been showing up on more menus in the US recently.
