❤️ Life happened, but I brought snacks.


Hello Reader!

It’s been a minute, hasn’t it? Life snowballed over here — we bought a house, struggled to find new routines, and with all of that came new chaos. But I’ve missed hanging out in your inbox, so I’m back! 🎉

While I was away, I’ve been working on things to make your life a little easier (and way more fun). Think: shortcuts for hosting, ridiculously easy cocktails, and little ways to make an average Tuesday feel special. Basically, less stress, more snacks.

Since fall is officially here, let’s start with something simple and cozy: Bruschetta Dip. It’s the kind of recipe that looks like you tried, but really…it’s just a stir-and-serve situation.

I’ll be popping in once a week from here on out with recipes, shortcuts, and “host-ish” ideas to help you enjoy the upcoming holiday season.

Glad to be back in your inbox 💛

As always, you can update your email preferences by using the link at the bottom of this email.

Enjoy!

Hello Reader! You know what doesn’t get enough credit? The little hangouts. Sitting on the couch with a friend, catching up over TV. Putting out a bowl of chips and dip. Pouring something fun into a glass. It doesn’t have to be a “party” to feel like a memory. Here are two of my favorite low-effort ways to turn an ordinary night into a little celebration: [Dip + chips] → retro, salty, and always a crowd-pleaser.
