{magnolia table chocolate chip cookies}

August 14, 2018 xoxostacyb4 Comments

Today we’re off to 7th grade orientation. You guys, how did this happen? We’re at Middle school…not Plainfield Elementary anymore. It seems like just yesterday I was walking in to drop my girl off to her first day of Kindergarten. Now 7th grade. So may milestones got us here. And so many milestones to go.

Okay, I’m done with all the sappy shit. Let’s talk cookies!

Bay bakes!! Again! While I’m on a sugar cleanse to top it off!

Bay has used this Magnolia Table cookie recipe about 4 times now. She made them for home…twice. Baked 4 batches for dessert the night we served at Fourth + Hope.

This recipe calls for half the butter than any other cookies recipe I’ve made before. So, I was intrigued. And only brown sugar, which I’m totally down with. This mother + daughter duo are big on brown sugar.

We checked out the Magnolia Table Cookbook from the library. We dogeared all the pages as if it were our own book. Remember, I’m cheap AF. I’m not big on buying books. Once I flip through them once, I shove them away and typically never look at them again. But this one, this one I may have to purchase. It’s good.

I even made a list of which recipes I want to try first:

Eggs Benedict Casserole

Flatbread Pizza (surprise, surprise) TJ’s just came out with a new GF flatbread too!

Layered Arugula Salad

Brussels with crispy bacon, toasted pecans & balsamic reduction

Mina’s Lemon Bars (Bay’s making them this week and I get to be the taste tester)

So, if you’re in the market for a new coffee table book, grab this one. You may even be inspired to open it up and make a recipe or two.

Here’s what you’ll need:

{friday 5}

August 10, 2018 xoxostacyb3 Comments

FRIDAY! My second favorite F word! I got everything marked off the to-do list…so you know what that means? I’m so fucking ready for the weekend! My last dry weekend…HA! Still sober AF peeps. We’re gonna have to discuss this more next week. As it seems to be a hot topic. Weekend plans: Kick it. Dinner with friends. Might check out a bike trail I’ve been dying to ride. Workout (who am I?). Catch some rays! Before you cut loose for the weekend….

Let take a quick sec and chat about 5 things I’ve got on my mind!!

ONE – Coffee Table // One of my favorite places to style in my home. PSA: The Bath & Body Leaves candles are BACK!! Get em while they last. You can read about my love for this scent here: {friday 5} We cut some Mezger Zinnia’s ♥. Remember when I told you I wanted to display all our seashells + beach treasures? It’s really had to see here, but that glass jar…it’s currently holding all the sand dollars + driftwood + crab legs + whatnot’s that we’ve collected this summer. I found it at good ol Target and it’s perfect. 1 gallon glass jar. I also picked up the marble “dipping” bowl which houses the matches. And I can’t forget the Magnolia Table cookbook. You guys, get your hands on a copy! We’ve got a list of recipes to make! Oh and our coffee table it’s marked down 1/2 off: Marble Knox Coffee Table

Tank // Denim // Slides // Necklace

TWO – Black on black // When in doubt, where all black. It’s always, always a good idea. I think my heart it telling me fall is upon us. I keep pulling out all my black pieces. This madewell top is so good. Comes in white and a stone color too. You can wear a regular bra…the straps cover that shit up! These have been my go-to black jeans for the last year. Love the distressing. $12 Target slides + the necklace I can’t take off!

{gift guide for her}

December 7, 2017 xoxostacybLeave a comment

Another day, another gift guide. Really I just feel like shit and I don’t feel like typing a recipe. Or taking a #ootd. Or pretending that I’m all peppy and shit. So, another gift guide it is.

Once again, ALL tried + true or on my actual wish list for the holidays.

There’s something for the ladies that like to cook. Lovers of pretty things. And cute stuff to wear.

Those jams + robe are calling my name right about now.
