Seriously though, who doesn't love the crockpot! Its so easy to just throw the ingredients in there and let it all simmer and merry together all day to literally a masterpiece. Its always considered for comfort food but don't forget it won't heat up the house in the summer! These are all fall recipes but the crockpot is so special I might just have to make a summer edition as well soon. Comment if you end up trying any of these! Because I am literally drooling as I make this list.

I spent an amazing 7 days in the Azores Sao Miguel. I rented a car and stayed in one hotel as my home base. Each day, I planned a new adventure on a different part of the island. Sao Miguel is easy to get around, and there is so much to see and do!
I expected Dubai to be flashy and shallow and came home completely wrong about that. Yes the buildings are insane and yes you can ski indoors in 40-degree heat — but the Creek's old dhow boats and the Gold Souk and the desert at sunset are what actually stayed with me. Three trips in and I'm still finding things I missed. This list is everything I'd tell a friend who asked where to start.

Ambient videos are designed to play in the background while you study, work, clean, enjoy company, etc. They all feature a gorgeous background (think watching the rain from a coffee shop, sitting by a crackling fire, or visiting an enchanted forest) and contain various types of music. Whether you enjoy jazz, lo-fi, fantasy-inspired, classical, or any other type of music, there's sure to be something for you on this list! I enjoy having these videos playing in the background to set the mood and keep me on task and I hope you will too!

This is a curated list of videos (and one podcast) that I believe every American should watch in 2025. It covers the public figures shaping the narrative, the political machinery running in the background, and the technological and financial forces driving the future. I’ve watched every piece of content here personally — not just to inform myself, but to better understand the world we’re actually living in. If you want to think more critically, connect the dots, and stay alert, start here.
I can’t even begin to explain how much I love wearing satin maxi dresses—they’re honestly my favorite go-to whenever I want to feel effortlessly elegant. The moment the smooth, silky fabric glides over my skin, I feel instantly polished and put-together, yet so comfortable at the same time.
There’s something about the way satin catches the light and flows with every step that just makes me feel graceful, confident, and a little glamorous—like I was made for these dresses. I love how the maxi length moves beautifully, giving me that elegant, flowing silhouette that turns heads without trying too hard.
