I feel most calm when things are simple and clutter-free, yet my bedroom never equated to those attributes. Mismatched furniture, kitschy bedding, terrible lighting, color issues, and zero organization. At 35 years old and after a move, I was ready to change that. Come see the before and after of my cozy minimalist bedroom!

A roasted pear side dish, with halloumi cheese and toasted pepita seeds. This recipe uses firmer pears and is a great way to enjoy them in a savory way instead of sweet!

If you were to ask me one important thing I learned from the process of moving into a house, my firm answer would be: IT TAKES FOREVER TO GET FURNITURE DELIVERED.
Forever as in upwards of 12 weeks for some things, like our couch (we had one chair for two months, lol) and media console. But, alas, everything has arrived! And the mid-century modern design we envisioned has come to life. Come take a look!

These mini chocolate cups are the cousin of a Snickers, without the work of a nougat. They use the ease of store-bought caramels, because I wanted these to be painless to make. (There is absolutely nothing wrong with semi-homemade sometimes!)
Dark chocolate because my more mature palette prefers that over milk.
And because all things are better with a little crunch, toasted walnuts tucked inside too. Rich and sweet tasting, they added the perfect touch.
