If you’ve followed along for a while you know we are a Sunday football kind of family, and that most of the festivities revolve around the foods. Typically, you can find us competing with charcuterie boards or getting down with some famous turkey chili .

If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you probably know by now that I have become quite the fan of frozé since moving down south. I stumbled upon the Co-op on Isle of Palm late last year, and instantly fell for their their daily frozé selections and delicious salads and sandwiches. Every time I post about my frozé fix I get dozens of messages asking where one can find such a treasure. And while I always direct my southern friends to my local spot, I sadly, don’t have any recommendations for my friends up north.

This past weekend was the lazy, cozy kind. And it was just what we all needed. It feels like we have been going nonstop the last few months- you know, moving during a pandemic, starting Kindergarten, holidays etc- so the Matkovics were in the market for a little reset.
So we stayed in our cozies for most of the day, and I threw together a yummy, but SUPER simple, homemade chicken soup.
And so many of you requested the recipe, so here it is…

Happy Sunday!

I hope everyone had a wonderful and relaxing weekend and is excited for the fresh week ahead. We took it easy over here at the Matkovic house - we moved slow, enjoyed the Charleston sunshine, and got a few things done around the house. It was just the speed we needed to refresh before the holidays are officially here.

Have I ever told you about the time I created a campaign video with Julia Dags only to have it pulled because there was a listeria outbreak in romaine lettuce? No? Well here it is…

Maybe we’ll just start all over and become charcuterie artists…

In our household, cheese boards are our love language and we’ve rarely met one we didn’t like.

Happy Sunday, friends! It’s been a while since I posted over here; mainly because of that crazy quarantine life. Today was a dreary one, which has been making these long, confined days just a tad bit harder.

Happy Weekend, Kids!

This past week was a long one for me and the girls, thus explaining the radio silence over here on the blog.

Maddie was home for winter break, which, naturally, coincided with a three-day long fever that kept us cooped up at home most of the week.

Valentine’s Day is in just a few weeks, so to celebrate I teamed up with some of my favorite local entrepreneurs to create a little Valentine’s brunch tablescape to get us in the spirit.

As always, I looked to Winston Flowers for the florals- I love how all the different pops of pink came together, and how the designers created a romantic feel with these whimsical stems.

Good Morning and Happy February! I hope everyone enjoyed the Super Bowl yesterday- and filled up on all the football foods!

I’m super excited to be a part of a recipe link up with some of my very favorite blogger friends today. This morning we’re all sharing one of our favorite go-to recipes, and tonight we’ll be announcing a super fun giveaway at 8pm EST on Instagram- so be sure to stay tuned!

Another easy + healthy recipe coming your way this chilly Monday morning!

Last week I shared my morning in the kitchen with my Nathalie- and y’all went crazy over her kid-friendly smoothie.

Good morning, kids! I hope everyone’s enjoying their week so far! You may have noticed there have been a lot of food posts over here lately- I’ve really been trying to flex my cooking-muscles, and to share the simple, yet delicious, recipes that I’ve found. It seems like so many of you have been loving them, so I’m excited to keep incorporating them into our weekly routine here at L+L. And please keep sharing how you recreate them in your kitchens!

Because you know I’m all about simple, delicious recipes that make it look like you’re a whiz in the kitchen, I just had to share this recipe a few days early.

A few months ago I posted a picture on Instagram stories of my go-to takeout order- my favorite sashimi from Sushi Soba, paired with a nice glass of pinot. And my coziest PJs. I’ve never gotten so many DM’s asking where we ordered out from- and I was surprised to hear so many people hadn’t tried our local favorite.

Please excuse the sub-par image; but my mama’s in town and whipped up one of her signature dishes and it needed to be shared in time for your weekly dinners. I think we really just need to start a series called “In the Kitchen with Kath.” She really is a culinary whiz, and does have a few novice-friendly recipes up her sleeve for those less gifted than she.

If you follow along, you might remember that my girl is one picky eater. If she had her way, her diet would consist nearly entirely of french baguettes and white pasta with butter. So last night when she asked me to make her broccoli soup, I happily obliged.
