On the Right Foot: Terrazzo Made of Eggshells, Stir Fry to Make This Week, a Silky Slip Skirt & More!

Happy Monday! I didn’t expect to take a weeklong hiatus from the blog, but my time was otherwise occupied between work and a couple of days at Summerfest in Milwaukee where we saw Ludacris and Run the Jewels. And let me just tell you that staying up till midnight two nights in a row is entirely too much for someone in her late-30s! I’m still exhausted and am looking forward to a quieter week.

Making terrazzo tiles out of eggshells!

I adore the understated fall vibes of this collection of taper candles in vintage holders.

We all instinctively know that fast fashion is bad for the environment, but how it’s wrecking havoc in Ghana is a somber reminder to buy what you really love and plan to hold on to.

I saw these rustic pasta bowls over the weekend and they’re absolutely gorgeous in green.

For just $60, this DIYer reupholstered his headboard.

I made this pork and cucumber stir fry last week and it was delish! I used hot ground pork, substituted a jalapeno for the fresno chile, and used mirin instead of Shaoxing wine since that’s what I had on hand. It lends itself well to leftovers.

Speaking of new recipes, the beginning of autumn always makes me excited to get back in the kitchen. Here are the newest cookbooks to get inspiration from.

You is coming back for a third season and I can’t wait!

How good is this slinky slip skirt?!

Have a wonderful week!

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊

Merry Christmas! My own Christmas tree isn’t a Merry Christmas! 

My own Christmas tree isn’t as tinsel’d as this one from the Christmas museum in Salzburg nor does it rotate. Consider these goals for next year.

I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint c I made @csaffitz’s raspberry almond thumbprint cookies and they’re delicious, but a lot of work and they don’t hold up well. If you’re planning on them this year, don’t add the jam dollop until just before you’re ready to serve them. The moisture gets sucked in overnight. Still good, of course, just softer than the first day.
