Hey there!

We’re Jen and Amber.

We are cousins, but also business partners and BFFs. We are constantly on the move, whether that's running a business or running after a toddler, remodeling our homes, recipe testing, scheming or dreaming.

This blog is a personal project for us, allowing us to share with you whatever we are thinking about or working on at the time. You might find a new recipe, you might find a strong opinion on dark academia or you might find out why we bought a restaurant.

Thanks for stopping by!
