Cookbook Club Vol II
Welcome back to The Cookbook Club! I have to admit, this time of year is one of my absolute favorites. There’s something about the back-to-school season that brings a fresh wave of excitement, even though, yes, it’s been over a decade since I had to worry about homework or new notebooks. But let’s not dwell on that. The change in the air, the promise of cozy nights and heartier meals—it’s all just so good. This week, I’ve got a lineup of things that are making me feel all the back-to-school vibes, minus the stress of actual school. Enjoy!
1. Things I’m listening to
Dan from Sporkful – mission imPASTAble. I loved this series on inventing a new pasta shape. It really makes me want to find a box of the Cascatelli
Paul Saladino on the Him & Her Podcast. He made so many good points about food and health here. We’re big meat eaters in this household. Also I’m a big fan of raw dairy milk – I drink it every morning in my coffee.
2. Things I’m Shopping
New things at Zara. I’m not quite ready to let go of dress season and these pieces feel like the right transition.
Ruffled Dress
Slip Dress
Satin Dress
Jeans
Zippered Jacket
One Shoulder Top

- Labor Day sales have officially started! Are you shopping? Madewell is going up to 50% off denim and they make some of my favorite jeans.
- Speaking of sales, I’ve got my eye on this bed frame in Pebble Linen. Lulu & Georgia’s 20% might be the best it gets!
- I can’t be the only love that loves a packet lunch right? Here are some good ideas if you’re with me!
- Everything on Hajar Larbah’s website. I’m loving her Korean food series, especially the Sotteok!
- Spent entirely too much time looking at everything from Heaven Mayhem. It’s too soon to start thinking about Christmas gifts…right?
4. Pinterest Inspiration
Lately I’ve been dreaming of a home gym. Actually, since we’re dreaming let’s take that a step further and have a home wellness center. A few years ago I heard that was “trending” in home designs and I can’t get the idea out of my head.
5. Dreaming of traveling to
To anywhere with good fall views. We are quickly approaching the best time of the year (bold statement and I won’t take it back). One of these years we’re going to go north and see all the leaves. Like this lodge or here.
6. House Design Updates
We are in the final pre construction planning for our house! This is been a long process and I’m so excited to start to see all this planning to be put in action. Some homes that’s are really getting me excited!
7. Things I’m Trying
Notion. I’ve heard of it for years and have tried to use it as an online planner. I’ve never stuck with it because I am a true pen and paper gal. But I’m trying to become more organized so I’m trying it out over the next few months to stay organized with it comes to all things SSK!
