Alongside many recipes for gorgeous cakes and feed-all, one-pot meals, the lifestyle and travel sections features tips on travelling with family, how to feel at home even while abroad and general thoughts and ruminations Beth has on life, love, and everything in between. She features interviews with artists, guest posts by city-lovers from all over the world, gift guides, lifestyle tips, and thoughts on slow living. There is nothing here, though, that she glosses over or shies away from. She is honest, direct, fragile, vulnerable, and yet incredibly strong, intuitive and clear-headed. She writes about grief, she writes about messy kitchens, about screaming matches, drunken mistakes, heartbreak, but also kindness, gentle embraces, the beauty of children, about maturing, settling down, and becoming your own person. This is not a glossy, Martha Stewart blog that intimidates its readers into imitation – this is a blog to encourage you to be more yourself, to also be open and honest about your experiences in life, and the beauty found in the moments in between.
