Pink, cold, and exactly what I needed on a Monday afternoon when the kitchen felt like an oven. I first made this Guava White Tea Lemonade last summer after William begged me to recreate “that pink thing from the coffee shop,” and honestly, I wasn’t expecting much. But that first sip sweet guava, smooth tea, sharp lemon it was better than I remembered. Now I make it twice a week because it costs less than a dollar and takes about as long as waiting in the drive-through line If you’re in the mood for more cold drinks that actually taste…

2025 was a big year for EHD, full of more “ups” than “lessons” (which is all you can really ask for), and I feel enormously grateful to still be here. We are closing out the 15th year of the blog, which is wild (that’s most of my adult life!). Some of you have been hanging out with me since I was 30 and watched me win Designstar, host a TV show, have two kids, buy our first home (then move three times), write two books, explode the business (in both a good and bad way), reign it back in and…

It takes off all my burden instantly and heals things very quickly. This is our third year of decoration Family Promise Shelter For the holidays with your kids (and this year, like 12 of their friends :)). The building is a former…

The smell hits you first dark cocoa and cool mint swirling together while the cookies are still warm on the sheet. I made my first batch three winters ago after tasting one at a cookie swap, and I’ve been hooked ever since. These chocolate peppermint cookies have crackly edges and soft, fudgy centers packed with melty peppermint chips. They’re ridiculously easy to throw together, and they taste like you bought them from an expensive bakery.

As someone who lives in about 1,500 square feet, wishing I had a little more room to move around or some dedicated areas for specific needs (my home office, a playroom for my kid, a hobby room for my and my husband’s special interests), I laugh at the idea of ​​having enough “dead” space to figure out what to do with it. However, I know a lot of homes, especially newer builds with extra square footage, have areas that may leave you scratching your head as to what its purpose was. A loft at the top of the stairs, perhaps?…
