Rosh Hashanah Honey Cake & Brunch at home

Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall. ― F. Scott Fitzgerald

Shanah Tovah to all our friends and family celebrating Rosh Hashanah!

We love spending holidays at home with family, taking the time to make great food and great memories. And one tradition we love is hosting simple brunch at home.

How to do it right?

First, make the perfect Paloma. 

And drink it while cooking perfect scrambled eggs.

And serve this perfect lemon poppyseed bread.

Don’t forget to get dressed up like a fashion editor.

Just kidding!  A fancy manicure is enough to make things fun and festive. (And a definite must-have for any newly engaged woman.)

If you want to dress up your house a little, this Austin couple has some fun ideas. (We love the shag rugs, they seem so cozy and family friendly.)

And finally, some beautiful diversity to start the weekend (and the year) off right!

Seth Meyers Married Alexi Ashe

Saturday Night Live Weekend Update anchor Seth Meyers married his longtime girlfriend Alexi Ashe over the weekend, and how adorable are they? The wedding was held on Martha’s Vineyard where the bride’s parents have a home.

Jason Sudeikis, Allison Williams, Jimmy Fallon, Jack McBrayer, Kristen Wiig, Will Forte, Kenan Thompson, Fred Armisen, Ali LArter, Lorne Michaels, Rashida Jones, Andy Samberg and Amy Poehler all attended, so it must have been ridiculously fun.

The couple met at a wedding and dated for several years. They announced their engagement this summer, and Seth told People Magazine about the proposal.

“I tied [the engagement ring] in a bow around our dog’s collar,” the funnyman told People. But his now-wife came home a little later than expected.

“I just had to sit there looking at the dog. I was like, ‘The dog’s going to eat the ring!’ ”

We love Alexi’s short sleeved wedding dress, it’s subtly body conscious, yet fresh and demure. She looked absolutely perfect.

Cheers to the happy couple!

Labor Day Meaning

“To achieve anything requires faith and belief in yourself, vision, hard work, determination, and dedication. Remember all things are possible for those who believe.” ― Gail Devers

As Americans, hard work is so central to our identity that we pay tribute, every year, to the achievements of our workers.

So here’s to a great year ahead, filled with liberty, justice and success for all Americans.

Happy Labor Day!
