Why did you leave out Philly on your book tour 😥 please tell us when you will be visiting the City of Brotherly Love?! Which btw is a perfect weekend trip for any couples only or family get-a-way!
Will you be resuming the podcast? I know you've had SO SO SO much going on with the book tour, but I'm just wondering if the plan is to eventually pick it back up? I'm sorry if you've already spoken about this and I missed it. I absolutely adore the podcast but know it takes a lot of time and energy!!
Yes! I second this question & meant to ask when we met on the book tour! I know the book tour has been all consuming, but I really really love your podcast! You have had such a variety of topics & I loved them all for different reasons!
Loveee these tips! It’s not always easy to focus on your spouse when kids & life are taking up so much energy… And thank you so much for the platonic love shout out 💛
I love how you talk so positively about your kids and your husband AND cooking. it can be so easy to complain about the people that we love the most so thanks for sharing how much your family means to you! It is encouraging.
My question is I would love to know more about your mom- I love that she was your inspiration for your own cooking journey. How did she learn to cook and become good at it and also what did she do when you were a kid and teen to help you love cooking too? And practical tips on how she taught you or did you just learn mostly by seeing her do her thing. Thanks!
CARO, I finally found a minute to read this week’s newsletter. Thank you for including the recipes from this week over the past few years. It brings back great memories of where I was and who was with me. I’m a military spouse. We’ve moved 3 times in 3 years. The ham & cheese sandwiches were on repeat for MONTHS last year while living in Pensacola and I still occasionally prep them for lunches. The year before that, I prepped the burritos in our Virginia townhouse for my first real milspo friend and dropped them off after she had her second baby. She’s in Japan now and we’re in south Texas. I miss her and this was the reminder I needed to reach out & check in.
I think I’ll make the unstuffed tomatoes this week and invite a friend whose hubby just left the state TDY for 3 months.
Thank you for the recipes and the news letters and sharing so much of yourself with the world. Your work makes a difference to me and impacts how I show up in the world for others. Thank you.
LOL the fajitas from 2021. We make steak fajitas, without fail, once a week in the oven like your recipe describes. I didn’t even realize I’d learned this method from WTC, but I must have because we’ve been doing it for about 3 years.
you always seem so confident and able to laugh at yourself. plus the fact that you dug in and built this community and following while having multiple kids (in the middle of a pandemic no less!) is just so freaking inspiring. on the flip side — is there anything you’re particularly self conscious about or afraid of right now?
Would die to know what brand cowboy boots you own that have lasted 20 years!! That photo shoot had me wanting to solely dress my family in denim and cowboy boots all fall
How do you and your husband balance working full time jobs with 3 kids? Do you try to designate certain days of the week that you each can work late and/or spend time with friends? Do try to plan one date night a month where you get a sitter and go out without the kids?
I know it can't be perfect and some weeks/months might require more give and take depending on each others work load, but it would be helpful to know how other couples make it work.
Hi! So not a super interesting question, but any sauté/fry pan recommendations that don’t have rivets at the handle? I hate cleaning around those and like scraping down the sides while cooking is so annoying over the rivets! Seems silly, but so annoying!
For the record, I've washed my pepper home pillow cases in the washing machine and dryer multiple times and they still look good and fit the inserts!! The site says to dry clean or spot treat only but I just don't have time for that lol
You've made so many interesting life/career pivots. Any advice for how to actually put yourself on a different career trajectory? I am so afraid of actually making a career change and get super intimidated by it, even though I think I'm well overdo for something new.
