Last week, my friend Sarah texted: “I’m having people over this weekend, and I have NO CLUE what to make! Help.” Thankfully, I knew what to tell her—the exact menu I’ve made for countless dinner parties around this time of year. It’s my secret weapon: delicious, mostly make-ahead, and foolproof enough to pull off even...

  Does honey go bad or expire? The short answer is: It depends. You’ve probably heard the story where archaeologists uncovered an ancient Egyptian tomb and found 3000 year old jars of honey still edible and perfectly preserved. Sounds unbelievable, right? But it’s totally true. Honey’s shelf-stability is pretty amazing. But there are times you’ll...

After four months alcohol-free, I started my “soberish” chapter in early March. It began as unceremoniously as it ended—no dramatic moment, just a quiet shift. Since then, it’s been going well: a drink or two a week. Dinner parties now wrap up with one glass of wine, a feat I never thought possible. What’s made...

Each year, I take a few days to pause, reflect, and get intentional about what I want for the months ahead. It’s become a ritual I look forward to, not only because it helps me set goals, but because it’s a moment to really check in with myself. I ask: What do I want my...

Most men own sharp clothes they barely see. Swap the hiding spots for prime real estate, flood your sightlines with the good stuff, and fresh outfit ideas will appear before the coffee finishes brewing. “Hi Andrew, do you have anything that talks about the best way to organize a closet?
