I’ve been feeding my family this soup all winter…they’re obsessed with the dumplings (@traderjoes pork gyoza, obvi) and I love that even when I have nothing in the tank I can still pull this one off. One pot, less than 10 ingredients, and dinner on the table in under 15 from start to finish. #thekitchn #dinnertherapist #weeknightdinner #dumplingsoup

Earlier this year we renovated our kitchen and I could not be more in love with how it turned out. It is truly everything I dreamed it would be!! This kitchen was a huge selling point when we bought our home…it’s spacious, has a great layout, amazing solid wood cabinets (and a lot of them!), and a really great walk-in pantry, but the aesthetic just wasn’t our style (think: mid-90’s honey oak everywhere & dark granite countertops). After months and months and months of planning with the help of @thehouseonbell (she such a great eye for style, an extreme amount of patience, and generously put together at least a million canva boards for mešŸ˜˜ā¤ļø) and a monumentally helpful nugget of advice from @nicolepeterstudio , it was finally time to update our kitchen. Here’s what we did: ā­ļø sanded and re-stained the hardwood floors ā­ļø had the existing cabinets refinished and painted by @bvfinefinishingservices (custom color to match Benjamin Moore Smokey Taupe) ā­ļø new cabinet hardware (@rejuvenation ) ā­ļø replaced the countertops with @raphaelstoneusa blanco crystol quartz ā­ļø new tile backsplash (@tilebar ) ā­ļøwallpapered our dining nook + side entrance on the other side on the kitchen (@borastapeter ) ā­ļø repainted remaining wall space with @benjaminmoore White Dove Eventually we’ll replace the lighting and get counter stools…but for now I’m happy to not be making design decisions and just enjoy our space ā¤ļø #kitchenrenovation #kitchendesign #kitcheninspiration #kitchenideas #kitchenupdate

Our summer is off to a strong start šŸ‰šŸ¦ The very best thing about making @meghan_splawn ’s 2-ingredient watermelon sherbet is that my 5 year-old did ALL the work…and he let me have that first bite! He LOVES helping me in the kitchen and this summer I intend to slow down, have more patience with it, embrace the messes and imperfections, reset expectations, and just let him have at it in the kitchen because it brings him a tremendous amount of joy & pride, increases his confidence, introduces him to new foods & flavors, teaches new skills, provides some fun math practice, and if someone else is enthusiastic about making me homemade ice cream all summer, I’ll take it ā¤ļø You get the gist of how to make it here, but you can also find the full recipe on @thekitchn . #icecream #icecreamtime #watermelon #summervibes #summerrecipes #kidsinthekitchen #cookingwithkids #kidsactivities #momlife #thekitchn

Lately….what I’ve been cooking for dinner, eating, drinking, and recipe testing recently. ✨ Grilled salmon + veggie bowls…easiest summer dinner I plan to keep on repeat ✨ Taco salad with garden greens 🌱 ✨ Grilled salmon Greek salad ✨ Doesn’t look like much but this was šŸ‘ŒšŸ» Turned the skimpiest bit of leftover Greek salad into a solid lunch with a can of tuna + lots of homemade giadiniera ✨ Current breakfast obsession! Inspired by @justataste to mid vanilla protein powder with my Greek yogurt and I’m HOOKED. ✨ Super fun weekend on the North Fork with my forever friend ā¤ļøšŸ· ✨ A visit to the North Fork isn’t complete without an afternoon at @croteauxvineyards ✨ This sheet pan dinner is a current fave at my house….it’s simple, so delicious, and couldn’t be easier. ✨ You’ll see me eating this smashed cucumber and feta salad all summer long. Inspired by @graceelkus smashed feta and recipe coming to @thekitchn soon. ✨kicking off summer with grilled turkey burgers šŸ” #lately #whatimeating #update
