This summer we upgraded our backyard with our very own 33″ Hestan Campania Pizza Oven. It was a game-changer! It has been so much fun perfecting our pizza technique and experimenting with new topping combinations.

Real candy corn is the WORST. Upgrade with this Candy Corn Halloween Dessert Pizza made with sugar cookies! It’s the perfect Halloween party recipe.
Let’s face it. Real candy corn is the worst. Does anyone actually enjoy eating this saccharine-sweet mushy candy? Still, it’s in candy bowls everywhere now. The upside, I suppose, is that it’s basically petrified. You can put it away in your Halloween decoration box and bring it out again next year and it will taste Exactly. the. same. Heck, you could take a hiatus from Halloween for ten years and your candy corn would still be there waiting for you in mint condition.

I’ve put it all together in a fun and easy video on my YouTube channel, and it’s also below, along with my favorite ever sugar cookie recipe.

As you know, I’m always looking for skincare products that will make my skin look and feel the best. It’s also important that these products are cruelty-free, all natural and eco-friendly. That’s why I’ve been loving Pretty Conscious skincare. They are a small Latin-x owned business that makes botanical beauty products that are perfect for sensitive and problematic skin. The founder, Charlene, actually started the company because nothing she could find worked for her son’s severe eczema.
They craft all-natural, luxurious, vegan & cruelty free products that smell great and make my skin happy.

Everything you need to know about choosing stone and marble slabs for your kitchen countertops in the San Francisco Bay Area. What places sell stone countertop slabs and what to consider when shopping for stone.
Our marble countertops were one of the biggest purchases in our kitchen remodel and also one of the most stressful. To say I worried about choosing the right stone for our countertops is an understatement! I like to joke that I have a Master’s degree in agonizing about what stone countertops to pick. I just didn’t have a clear vision for what I wanted when we started out and that made everything harder.
I’m going to spill the tea about everything I learned during this process to hopefully help you too! We went to four different places in the San Francisco Bay Area and ended up finding stone slabs for both our fireplace and kitchen at Integrated Resouces Group (IRG) in Brisbane, California (15 minutes south of San Francisco). The cliff notes version of this post is that IRG has the best and largest stone selection in the Bay Area and the best service.
