Love is in the Air
My love language is quality time. What’s yours? Slow mornings. Good music playing in the background. And filling our home with pieces that make everyday moments feel warm and meaningful. For me, love has always shown up in the simplest ways — lingering at the kitchen table, sharing a dessert, or just being together without rushing to the next thing. Especially around Valentine’s Day, I’m reminded that love doesn’t have to be grand or complicated. Sometimes it’s just about making space for the people you care about. When it comes to dessert, strawberry shortcake is always a favorite in our house. I use the Bisquick shortcake recipe, but I do it my way. I like my strawberries freshly sliced, no sugar added. I place the shortcake in a bowl and pour just a little milk or half-and-half over it to add moisture. Then I layer on the fresh strawberries and finish it with a generous dollop of whipped cream. So simple. So good. And somehow, it always feels special. ♥️ Here’s to slow moments, sweet treats, and celebrating love in the ways that matter most. Xx, Rachel

Starting Fresh in January
Rachel's Favorite Way to Reset at Home The cozy little changes that make a big difference. January always inspires me, not in a “new year, new everything” kind of way, but to start fresh in a way that actually feels good. For me, that always starts at home. I’m not talking about a full renovation or a massive clean-out. I mean the small changes that quietly shift how you feel day to day — a bedroom that feels peaceful when you wake up, a bathroom that feels like a mini spa, or a cozy scent that instantly makes the whole house feel calm. Every morning, I use my Joovv light therapy as a quiet moment to myself. It’s when I set my thoughts for a positive, grounded day ahead. I also use my sauna about three times a week, it’s become one of my favorite ways to unwind, reset, and feel restored from the inside out. This month, I pulled together a "Shop the Look" inspired by what I personally crave in January: soft layers, warm lighting, simple organization, and a few beautiful pieces that make everyday life feel just a little more special. I’m also sharing two wellness items I actually use at home — they’ve become part of my own self-care routine and something I really look forward to. If you’re feeling the pull to start fresh too... in a way that feels comforting and doable, you’re definitely in the right place.

Setting the Mood for the Holidays
Every family has that one holiday dish—the one everyone looks forward to, the one that feels like celebration, the one that doesn’t taste quite the same unless it’s made during this season.

It was about the moment: the music playing, the table set with intention, the feeling of a home filled with warmth. It’s the kind of tradition that lingers long after the last bite. This season, we’re sharing her beloved recipe so you can bring a little of that same magic to your own celebrations. Whether you’re hosting New Year’s Eve, gathering with friends, or simply creating a cozy night at home, this festive dish is guaranteed to become a new favorite.
