Major life changes start one small change at a time. From minimalism and decluttering to gardening and slow-travel, we tackle this year's big goals. And there may even be some creative writing along the way!
Chaos Gardening Sprouts Wild Joy
I am a new convert to chaos gardening. I used to follow a much more rigid set of rules about what could be planted where in my container garden. Seeds were planted in tidy rows. Vegetables a… Read More

Fall decor ideas for the home are spinning around my brain. Every interior designer has some notion about how to embrace the fall aesthetic. From planning a bedroom refresh to creating a boo… Read More
I was ready to make a big purchase on Prime Day. One of those couches was going to be mine, and I was going to get a great deal. I took measurements of the room, the doorway, and the hall. I… Read More
Intentional Prime Day
Amazon’s Prime Day (or week, in some cases) has always been complicated for me. I’m trying to live more sustainably. I have always leaned toward minimalism. But there are things… Read More
Gray Paint Trends
Let’s talk about gray paint. Over the last five to six years, gray paint has become the go-to neutral color. While it will likely always be a stylish (even elegant) choice, I’m s… Read More
I was obsessed with learning how to grow blueberries in a container garden even before we moved. While we didn’t have ideal growing conditions in the backyard of our old apartment, I w… Read More

Are you constantly searching for the answer to how to organize your closet? Here is the good news: no matter what the algorithms or Instagram tell you, there is no one way to do it. The best… Read More
We have you covered if you are looking for decluttering tips for your bureau or closet drawers for day seven of the 30-day decluttering challenge. Whether you have already reorganized your c… Read More
After we finished with the beach towels, it only made sense for us to move on to decluttering the linen closet on Day 3 of the 30-Day Decluttering Challenge. While we did find ourselves with… Read More
Day 2 of our decluttering challenge has us thinking about the beach. This is not entirely out of line because it was 80 degrees here in LA on Christmas. Still, the chilly downpours of the la… Read More
If you have been reading this blog for a while, you know that I love taking a decluttering challenge. Programs like 30-day minimalism, Project 333, and other challenges inspire me. They get… Read More

I have been on a blogging roll lately, and I thought I’d give you a chance to catch up on all the goodness (if I do say so myself). But more than just delightful reads, there have been… Read More
Are there hobbies that you miss? Are there things you used to do (or aspire to do) that you abandoned because life got in the way? Were there things you loved but had to give up because of p… Read More
My home office decor makes me tense. I mean, it’s entirely possible that the idea of staring at a blank page on my computer screen is what actually sends off waves of anxiety, but my h… Read More
Growing okra in a container garden wasn’t even a vague consideration for me prior to the pandemic. I had never eaten okra, as far as I know. I didn’t know anything about growing… Read More
A visit to Napa Valley Olive Oil in St. Helena, California, was a long-held desire for Andy. And it makes sense. He does most of the day-to-day cooking and loves experimenting with different… Read More
I was so excited about growing Meyer Lemon Trees (Improved) in our container garden. We bought a tiny one from neighbors who ran a nursery in their backyard and took all the advice they coul… Read More
You would be amazed at the many stunning Japanese gardens located in and around Los Angeles. We first started seeing them pop up on television shows. Knowing that the shows were filmed here… Read More
I love pumpkin spice and actual pumpkin recipes all year long, but something about fall calls out for more. I keep trying new things all the time, but there are four pumpkin recipes that I r… Read More
I bought a pack of bamboo dish drying racks from Amazon a few months ago. My initial goal was to use them as drying racks and for organizing our baking trays, tins, and cutting boards. This… Read More
Our Napa Valley wine tasting tour itinerary left some room for happy discoveries. Even in May, you had to make reservations for tastings, so spontaneity had to be tempered with some pre-plan… Read More
We had some loosely defined goals when we first made plans to go on a Napa Valley wine tasting tour. We wanted a blend of larger and smaller wineries. We wanted to experience family wineries… Read More

If you love wine or want some tips about where to make reservations for a Napa Valley wine tasting, you’ll want to read some of our more recent articles. I let you in on our honest tho… Read More
It’s hard to explain the loss I feel for someone I did not know. It’s not because I lived in England for a brief time. I think it is more a sense of losing someone who was a stea… Read More
The last couple of weeks have been rough. I was going to share joyous (and so delicious) details about my first wine tasting trip to Napa Valley, but it just felt wrong. So, I’m going… Read More
Andy is a big fan of lemon poppy seed muffins. He used to say they were his favorite muffins, and they were a regular part of his life when he was working in New York. You don’t see th… Read More
With another drought upon us in Southern California, we are looking at how to save water at home while still growing a garden. The first restrictions go into effect on June 1st, and those ar… Read More
This week, I decided to test out a blueberry lemon bread recipe because we had leftover blueberries and homegrown Meyer lemons (our sapling out back is still producing!). I tend to stay away… Read More
If you’ve been following our Home Grown exploits, you know that we started growing cherry tomatoes as part of our indoor container garden in August 2020. We learned how to clone and ro… Read More

I’ve always wanted to try a chocolate pound cake recipe because a) chocolate and b) it’s delicious when it is simple or has loads of options added. So, with Easter coming, I thou… Read More
We loved stumbling upon the Inn at Avila Beach back in 2015. We had been looking for a hotel with fantastic ocean views that allowed us to walk to the beach, restaurants, and the pier. At th… Read More
This week, I decided to try my hand at a simple honey cake recipe. Honey cake (or “butter cake” as it is sometimes known) has a texture more like banana bread – moist and l… Read More
Andy’s easy meatloaf recipe is the perfect answer to lunch menu woes when the rain comes in and the temperatures drop here in Los Angeles. It helps that Andy is a genius at taking what… Read More
