When you build interest through various levels of elements by combining textures & patterns you’re Layering.

When that same space is filled with unique pieces that have been acquired over time you create depth. A Collected room has depth; it’s both comfortable & attractive.

This room by @mscraftberrybush is both Layered & Collected. Love this look? Follow me on the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app to get the product details for this look and others @liketoknow.it

My list of WORTH IT kitchen gadgets includes this pair of “Spatula Tongs”.

I grill with them, I turn bacon, sausage & meatballs with them, I caramelize onions with them and so much more. They’re always in the dishwasher because I literally use them ALL THE TIME!!

It’s definitely worth it to have kitchen tools that get the job done quickly, easily and clean up beautifully.

My favorite new tool is what I call a food mover. It has a non slip grip, a beveled edge to pick food up with ease and edges that keep the food on the scrape.

I’ve made it easy for you to add this scrape to your kitchen tool box with LTK. I’ve also included a towel I’m currently obsessed with and one of my favorite cookbooks.

Scandinavian Almond Cake — simple, cozy, and perfect with a cup of coffee on a cold December morning. ✨

Soft inside, a little crisp on the edges, and just… classic.
It’s the perfect cake for the Christmas season.

My mom (100% Scandinavian) gifted me this pan last Christmas and it’s now a new family tradition.

Should I share more European holiday bakes? 🎄✨
Save this one for your Christmas morning baking.

Beat together:
• 1 ¼ cups sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 ½ tsp almond extract
• ⅔ cup milk

Add:
• 1 ¼ cups flour
• ½ tsp baking powder

Add:
• 1 stick melted butter
Beat well.

Spray almond cake pan with baking spray + light flour coat. Add a sprinkle of almonds for that textured top. Add the batter and bake at 350°F for 40–50 minutes, until edges are golden and center tests clean. Cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

It’s Tip Tuesday! Let’s chat about oils.

Is the cooking oil in your cabinet in a clear bottle or a dark bottle? This one detail can make all the difference between good and bad oil.

Rancid oil not only tastes terrible, but it’s also bad for you and can cause inflammation!

Luckily, there are a few super simple tips for buying and storing your favorite oils to make them last longer:

1) Buy oils in a dark glass container.
2) Don’t buy in bulk. Once opened, oil goes bad in 6 months.
3) Don’t store your oils in cute clear containers by your stove. Choose ceramic containers if you’re keep them out or store them in a dark space.

Worth it!!

As the holidays approach there’s nothing worse than spending half the day in the kitchen cooking and the other half of the day doing dishes.

POV: use cookware that can go straight to the table and save yourself some blood, sweat and tears.

What do you do when crisp autumn air settles in? I BAKE!!

There’s nothing more comforting than the warm, spicy aroma of freshly baked PUMPKIN SCONES wafting through the kitchen.

They’re the perfect blend of fall flavors, combining the rich taste of pumpkin with a hint of cinnamon, nutmeg and a frosting drizzle.

To make the baking experience even better, I’ve paired this delightful recipe (below) with some of the best bakeware recommendations from Good Housekeeping.

These top-rated tools will ensure your scones and all of your holiday goodies are baked to perfection every time!

1) BEST OVERALL - Circulon 10-Piece NonStick Bakeware Set.
2) BEST CAST IRON SET - Lodge Baker’s Delight Set.
3) BEST CERAMIC SET - Greenpan Premiere Ovenware Ceramic Nonstick 5-Piece Set.

PUMPKIN SCONES -

Ingredients:
• Scones -
▢ 2 cups all purpose flour
▢ ⅓ cup brown sugar
▢ 1 teaspoon baking powder
▢ ½ teaspoon baking soda
▢ 1 teaspoon cinnamon
▢ 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
▢ 1 egg
▢ ¼ teaspoon salt
▢ ½ cup pumpkin puree
▢ 3 tablespoons milk
▢ ½ cup butter
▢ 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• Glaze -
▢ 1 cup powdered sugar
▢ 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions:
1) Preheat oven to 400F. Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2) Combine the dry ingredients. Add cubed butter and use a fork to combine.
3) In second bowl add the wet ingredients. Whisk until combined.
4) Mix wet and dry ingredients. I used a stand mixer but a spoon works too. Combine until a dough ball forms.
5) Sprinkle some flour on your counter. Use your hands to make a solid ball (won’t take much) Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a circle, 1/2” thick. Using pizza cutter, slice the dough into triangles.
6) Place mini scones onto prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
7) While scones are baking, prepare your glaze. In a small bowl whisk confectioners sugar and milk until smooth.
8) Cool scones for 10 minutes. Drizzle glaze on each scone.

Savor and ENJOY!

Quiet kitchen moments are completely worth it.

I’m able to soak in the peace and beauty of a clean and calm space while working on tonight’s menu. I can hear the birds chirping outside, the coffee tastes just right and the subtle scent of a burning candle warms my heart.

Soon the chaos of a full house will erupt and I love that too but I’m cherishing the quiet moments this Summer.

I hope you find a quiet moment today and I pray it’s as beautiful for you as this was for me.

Essential pots and pans, you guessed it, the cookware every kitchen needs.

It might be more expensive to purchase individual quality pans but they will last longer and they’ll likely distribute heat more effectively.

Serious Eats says these are investment worthy:
• Cast iron skillet.
• Dutch oven.
• Sauté pan.
• Wok (not sure I agree).
• Saucier.
• Nonstick skillet.
• Stockpot.

You'll have fewer pieces of cookware to store and you'll have superior cooking performance that suits your needs.

I have some essentials to grab when prime days return. How about you?

Let’s stay sharp! The most dangerous tool in a kitchen is a dull knife.

I keep my knives sharp with this simple and inexpensive tool. It has a diamond rod, a tungsten steel blade and a ceramic rod to repair damaged blades, sharpen, eliminate burrs and polish both metal and ceramic blades.

For under $10 it’s definitely worth it!

#LTKGiftGuide #LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKHome

It’s worth it Wednesday and I want to share another kitchen favorite 🌺.

I’m a big fan of cast iron cookware. This Lodge Grill/Griddle, 9.5-inch x 16.75-inch is a family favorite. Mostly because of the bacon and smash burgers it creates.

#LTKFindsUnder50 #LTKHome #LTKParties

Cookbooks are definitely WORTH IT … here’s why!

• Cookbooks are as much a record of our life as any history book. They are an important snapshot of our culture at specific points in time.
• They’re a collection of pantry staples, basics and of course recipes.
• They’re decorative … duh!!
• Cookbooks allow us to dive into traditions and cultures while learning the importance and joy of cooking.
• Food and cooking always bring people together and cookbooks play an important role in “setting the table” for conversation.

There’s something so special about clean sheets, spring bedding and the light n airy feeling of it.

I gave our primary bedroom a refresh. All of the dark heavy blankets, throws and duvet covers are tucked away for another season. I couldn’t be happier.

If you’d like more information on any of my bedding or decor, please ask.

Here’s to peaceful nights with the windows open … cheers!

Life happens, soup helps!!

Creamy Taco Soup to the rescue and because I needed to clean out the fridge I added onions, peppers and mixed vegetables to the original recipe (which can be found on my Pinterest board Cheers To Great Recipes).

Is this porch to die for or what?!?! On Thursday’s I love to dream about the weekend & fun ways to spend it. I, of course, like to take you along for the ride.
•
The architecture of this look isn’t simple to recreate but a pergola could give a similar vibe. Add a fireplace & a few few similar decor items, you’re set! Love the vibe, make it yours. If not keep dreaming with me.

Does your coffee table set the tone for your room or does your room determine the coffee table needed?
•
It’s a battle in my mind because the coffee table says SO much! It makes a statement as the centerpiece, it’s the place for gathering & it’s the one unique piece that makes a statement.

I’m showing off a few fun options, that in my opinion, are show stoppers! Shop your screenshot of this pic with the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app.

Sexy Summer Spaces!
•
Decor terms defined! What makes a space SEXY? Let’s talk rich sultry palettes, Hollywood glam & over the top chandeliers. A mix of Art Deco & Midcentury Modern. Think high gloss mirrored furniture. Fabrics are typically luxurious silks, velvet & fur.
•
Summer + Sexy + Decor = This room!! Am I right? I’ve recreated this sophisticated room in a scale that’s more manageable & at a price that’s doable.
