Welcome to my blog! My name is Taylor and I’ve been sharing my style, travels, coffee adventures, and simple moments of joy here since 2010. My goal is to share the things I love by way of my own photography. Now, my focus is on living intentionally amid the noise and doing the things I love: reacquainting myself with my own 30something style, creating a happy home, photography, and everything in between. Even still, my favorite things to capture are everyday moments.
On a weekend, or any day really, my morning coffee legitimately gets me excited! I know I am not alone there. During my maternity leave I really got to perfect my favorite coffee recipe. Nothing beats a cuppa coffee or tea out of a warm mug while sitting on the couch!

Read MoreLike many, I am finding myself with more time to bake/make things from scratch. While I posted my bread adventures a bit ago, I have to admit I haven’t been that ambitious in quite a while. I’m not at the point of making homemade cookies or pasta or stuff like that, but I decided a few weeks ago to borrow my parents’ food processor and make one of my favorites: pesto alla genovese!
Read MoreI am basking in the glow of achievement - I have just baked my first ever LOAF OF BREAD! Real, fresh, insanely crusty and delicious golden bread! I can’t get over the fact that I didn’t mess it up…I can’t get over the ease of the process, either.
