Poppy Haus has a feature in the premiere issue of Pix. Available on iTunes, Pix is a photography/lifestyle quarterly geared towards women, with content covering a variety of topics for both amateur an professional photographers. I love the concept, and I'm very excited to be a part of their first edition!
Read MoreYesterday we feasted on old fashioned potato salad, burgers and corn on the cob before heading out to launch fireworks in the middle of the street with our new neighbors. Classic Americana. I made a peach pie with extra juicy and flavorful yellow peaches using a version of a recipe from The Joy of Cooking. Make it now while the stone fruit is in season! Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and definitely eat the leftovers for breakfast.
