It’s been over a month since we spilled the news that Chris will be writing 3 cookbooks and we figured we owed you an update. At the beginning of the month, we flew my sister Andrea up from her home in Monterrey, Mexico to shoot all the photography for the books. It was a hefty, but beyond delicious, two-week shoot that went late into the night almost every night. Although we were all tired, we had a blast. It was a dream to style and work with my talented sister and husband. An absolute dream! Earlier this week, she sent over a teaser video she put together that captured a little bit of what things looked like behind the scenes:

Next week, we hope to have a few different cover options that will reveal a little more about what these ebooks are all about. And! We decided it would be fun to have our readers choose the final cover through voting. Thanks so much for all of your support and excitement on this passion project.

A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]
