I’ve been dying to share this 🥹🍋 Introducing the MacKenzie-Childs x CheeseGal collection! Now available, this collection features handcrafted and hand painted ceramics made in Aurora, NY, inspired by my love of gathering, vibrant lemon motifs, and of course their iconic blue checks. I wanted this to feel special, but still like something you’d reach for in your daily routine — whether you’re hosting friends or just bringing a little extra to your everyday moments. From my table to yours, each piece brings a little southern zest to the way you gather ☀️ Comment “🍋” and I’ll send you a link to explore the collection!

My cookbook OVERSHARING is available for preorder!!! 😭 After 3 years of pouring my heart and soul into this book, I am ecstatic to (over)share that my debut cookbook is available NOW for preorder and will be in your hands September 15th!!!! Comment BOOK and I’ll DM you the link- can’t believe I’m finally saying those words lol. This cookbook is packed with over 100 (yes, you read that right!) run-don’t-walk recipes, my “Ten Kitchen Commandments” (leave your butter on the counter — and make sure it’s salted), and even a culinary dictionary (“Cocktail Cardio,” anyone??), along with the stories I probably didn’t need to include… but did, because, well, I’m an avid oversharer! I divided Oversharing into playful, very-me chapters like Bougie Couch Snacks (YOU KNOW I HAD TO) for reality-TV nights in sweats, Weak-Night Dinners for when you’re low on energy but still want something special on a Tuesday, When to Wow for hosting friends and family, and more!! I’ve said since day one that this book needed to reflect me unapologetically. These recipes aren’t fussy or cheffy — because, well, I’m neither of those things. I’m just a gal who loves delicious food, a good cocktail, and making even the smallest moments feel special. I started this journey seven years ago as a stay-at-home mom with no idea what was ahead, and it truly makes me emotional to think about. It’s not lost on me that none of this happens without YOU. You’re the reason I wrote this book, the reason I have this platform, and the reason I keep going. Humbled, honored, and grateful doesn’t even begin to cover it. Pre-order your copy wherever books are sold… LET’S OVERSHARE IT ALL, BABY! LOVE YOU! Cort xx

To be clear, I wouldn’t mind both 🤣

Girls just want to yap in robes and do skincare

Add the panko, season with salt and pepper, and cook until lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out the skillet and return to the heat. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium. Add the lemon zest and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the drained pasta and ½ cup of the pasta water. Cook, stirring, until the pasta is coated in the buttery sauce. Add the parmesan, then stir the pasta frequently with tongs until the cheese melts.
