Santa Fe's restaurant scene is incredibly competitive and you're guaranteed a great meal no matter where you eat. The city offers a wide variety of international cuisine, and traditional Santa Fe fare is not to be missed. I wrote a great post with so many recommendations here but have also discovered a few new ones I just had to share with you!!!
Read MoreMy aunt and cousin visited me recently and wanted to grab souvenirs and unique fun Santa Fe pieces so we visited Camino Real Imports on Cerillos and it was amazing!!!
They are a small family business and bring the finest imports from Mexico and South America!
Everyone was able to find something they loved!!!
I ended up getting some great glassware for the Santa Fe house and I found the most beautiful embroidered dresses for my niece!!!
I am just going to let the photos do the talking here.
Read MoreI cannot believe we have been in Santa Fe for a little over a month now! Things are starting to come together a little more every single day!!! The furniture backorders are driving us crazy if I am being honest and I am just so ready to be fully settled! Our house here does not quite feel like home yet and I just cannot wait for the day it feels like our cozy little haven.
We have gotten a few organization projects done that I am ready to show you today in partnership with Safran Everyday. They make some wonderful home organization solutions that are unfussy, modern, durable and affordable!

Read MoreAlora Ambiance now has Room Sprays y’all!!
And I could not be happier about this!
Misting the air with one of their enticing room sprays is the fastest way to make such a beautiful first impression. When the occasion calls for it, a few spritz throughout your home can make it guest-ready in no time. All though who needs an occasion got their home and everything in it to smell divine!!? I love surrounding myself with these gorgeous fragrances on the daily.
Read MoreI am so excited to introduce you to the brand behind the luxe bedding and linens, Piglet In Bed. Many of you know that Lin and I have been spending quite some time working on our new little home here in New Mexico and we can’t wait to share more of the updates with you end summer, early fall.
One of the items on our list was investing in new sustainable linen bedding. I had discovered a brand called Piglet in Bed while doing some research and was so intrigued by their color palettes and their overall mission. Their founder started Piglet in Bed in 2017 from her mother's garden shed in rural England with just a small range of linen bedding and a couple of cheeky piglets who were willing to be the first models. Today, they’ve expanded their collection to include beautiful, low-maintenance bedding, sleepwear and homewares.

Read MoreDear readers, I am so sorry for my absence but things have been a little crazy in our world. But I did want to pop on here and say HOLA from New Mexico!!!!
Every morning we take a nice chilly walk with our boys where we now have a residence in Santa Fe!!!!
We look out at the horizon to the mountains— a view that’s always made us feel deeply calm. Last summer, we took the plunge of having a house here in New Mexico, and it’s been exciting and so super stressful, super messy and blissful.

Read MoreLighter, brighter, and the place I want to spend all my time.
We’re all drawn to novelty—it’s human nature. The shiny and new all present opportunities for innovation, growth, and progress along the path forward. Of course, change doesn’t come without challenge. And this little Santa Fe home of ours was quite the challenge to fix up. Sometimes I think a full demo is easier than fixing something up! LOL.
Read MoreNo matter how many photos you’ve seen, you really can’t prepare yourself for the landscape of gorgeous Santa Fe. There are many unforgettable things to do in Santa Fe: explore its history, learn about its culture, and shop world-renowned art markets and galleries. Discover the art, the history, the cuisine and the landscapes that made Santa Fe #3 City in the U.S. 2020 Travel + Leisure World's Best Awards.

Read MoreVisit the new Farm Shop Norte for a unique Los Poblanos shopping and tasting experience in downtown Santa Fe. Just north of the plaza, Farm Shop Norte is housed in a renovated 1935 Sinclair Oil gas station/farm supply store in Santa Fe’s core historic district. As part of Los Poblanos’ mission of historic preservation, the renovation process restored signature elements of classic American roadside architecture.
Read MoreThink of Santa Fe, and your mind’s eye renders the image in sepia. By both tradition and design review in the historic districts, adobe and faux-adobe walls all wear the color of bare earth. There’s something to be said for it, as no other North American city grows from its landscape with such an organic sense of place.
Read MoreIt’s true: I’m on a major health kick right now. As soon as spring rolls around I immediately start craving the cool, crisp, and fresh flavors of seasonal produce. Salads have always been Lin’s specialty. Every time we’d return home from vacation to four ingredients in the house, he’d somehow manage to serve a salad that would make Salata jealous. While this makes me incredibly lucky, it also makes me a salad snob. I don’t settle for just any salad. In my opinion, a great salad has a surprising flavor combo and gives me all of the nutrients I need from a one-dish meal.
This one is soooo delicious!!!!
