We love hosting summer dinners on the deck and I’m always looking for dishes that can be made ahead and served at room temperature. Here are my go-tos:
Peach Caprese (similar to the Nectarine Caprese in The Forest Feast)
Sesame Farro Salad (from The Forest Feast Gatherings)
Roasted Potato + Greenbean Salad (from The Forest Feast Gatherings)
BBQ Corn Salad (from The Forest Feast Road Trip)
Happy cooking!
I love adding a grain salad to my dinner party menus because it’s hearty and does well made in advance. Farro is like a bigger, chewier rice and Trader Joe’s has a 10-min bag of it that I use often. This recipe is from The Forest Feast Gatherings cookbook. Enjoy!
Today is Wine Launch Day and I’M SO EXCITED! This has been in the works for quite some time and I’m happy to finally share my wine collaboration with Sandar & Hem, a family wine label rooted in the mountains where I live. I LOVE this Sauvignon Blanc and hope you will, too!
Just in time for Mother’s Day, I’m releasing this wine alongside my new spring Eucalyptus Cheese Board! Together they make the perfect gift. This board was inspired by the magenta blooming eucalyptus I am seeing everywhere lately. Who doesn’t love wine & cheese? This mama sure does.

Recha and I met through our kids’ school and we dreamt up this partnership one afternoon on her deck over a glass of her family’s amazing wine. I LOVE this wine — it’s rooted in place, my place — and I wanted to be a small part of its story. Recha and her husband, Rob, created their boutique family wine label Sandar & Hem a few years ago which is inspired by and grown in the Santa Cruz Mountains where we live. We share a passion for local food and wine and the mission to build community around the table, so it was a perfect match.
Inspired by the soft shades of spring, I watercolor-painted grapes and wild flowers for the label. It will make your spring table a little prettier and a lot more delicious.
This 2022 Sauvignon Blanc is light and crisp with a clean, citrusy finish. It’s available in bundles of 3 for about $26/bottle if you use the coupon code below.
Visit the Sandar & Hem website to order this wine in 3-packs, 6-packs and 12-packs— it ships throughout the US.

It all started with Ezra, our 8-year-old. I usually wear long, colorful, patterned dresses and one day after soccer practice he said, “Mama, why don’t you wear leggings like all the other moms?” I said I didn’t think they were as much fun. And he replied, “But you could make it fun!” And so I did!
Introducing the new Forest Feast Orange Tree Leggings & Orange Tree Hoodies! I’ve been wearing them for a few months now and I have to say, they are quite fun :)
This classic Forest Feast print is a photo I took several years ago of a massive orange tree in Sacramento, CA. It’s been featured in many forms over the years including the endpages of The Forest Feast Road Trip cookbook, on the Orange Tree Dress and even on furniture!
