Hey, Y’all!

I'm Ashley and I believe life starts at the table. Since I was a little girl, my favorite place to be is at the kitchen table -- surrounded by the people I adore, eating delicious food, and listening to family stories. Let's create life around the table!

let’s connect

Hey, y’all! Happy Monday!

I’ve got a bunch a new faces, it’s a new year, so let’s chat!

🙋🏼‍♀️ Hi! I’m Ashley - the Sweetpea behind Sweetpea Lifestyle.

I’m the hostess with the mostest who is ringing in the “new southern belle.”

I’m the fairy godmother 💃🏼 of maximizing your time and creating unforgettable memories around your table.

📝 We edit out the mess of the overcomplicated dinner party, creating a sense of freedom in yourself to gather people around the table, anchored by good food.

You’ll quickly learn that easy and effortless are a thing you CAN have when entertaining at home. ((This isn’t your grandmother’s 1950s bridge club luncheon.))

I’m a firm believer that the kitchen and the table are the true heart of the home, and life and community are cultivated there.

Sharing a meal together is how we can love people well.

Oh, how I wish I was bringing this cheese plate out to you on the big deck, with people gathered around it!

What is your favorite cheese plate item?!

Schnaaaacks!

Y’all, I love snacks. I think I’d rather eat a dinner made up of snacks than a real meal…

Maybe…

We all have our childhood nightmares of stinky, stanky Brussels sprouts being boiled on the stove-top.

I can remember my (weird) little brother BEGGING my mom to make the kind you boil in the plastic package from the freezer?? That smell is something I will never forget!

I’ve got a few secret tips for roasting the most perfect Brussels sprouts that will have your friends asking you how you get them so yummy, yummy.

For the crispiest Brussels sprouts you’ve ever had that act as a snack rather than a side dish, here’s what you’re going to do:

1. Cut your sprout’s little stem ends off.
2. Cut the sprouts in half or in quarters, lengthwise (that means from the stem end to the top).
3. Add to a big bowl and coat (well!) with olive oil.
4. Sprinkle salt and pepper (today we’re using ranch seasoning!) on top and toss REALLY well to coat.
5. Roast at 425˚ for 15+ minutes with the FLAT SIDES DOWN.
6. Halfway through give them a look-see and check if any need to be flipped.
7. Serve! (Yourself off the sheet pan, or on a big platter for others!)

I like to mix ranch with @cholulahotsauce and dip the crunchy-crispy snacks in it!

Tell me your favorite snack in the comments below!

Some winter nights, you just need a steaming bowl

Some winter nights, you just need a steaming bowl of Braised Beef Short Ribs… Right?!

Beef short ribs are simmered in a full bottle of red wine and copious amounts of herbs until impossibly tender.

This is one of those “stick to your ribs” meals, that features ribs… Cheeky, huh?!

Growing up my mother had this cookbook called “Fix-It and Forget-It!”

This is kind of the same thing… except you use your oven!

The oohs and ahhs that come from the wafting smell of braising short ribs are what every chilly winter night needs.

While you’ll need an entire bottle of red wine to pour over the short ribs, you’ll also need one for drinking… because why not!

Serve this hearty meal over silky mashed potatoes for the date night at home dinner you’re craving!

❓ What is your favorite cozy comfort food meal??

I’ve got 5️⃣ recipes in my stories that are KILLER.

Do you have any Christmas Eve traditions?!

This is the first year in my entire life that I won’t be attending a candlelight church service… 🕯

Other than that, we don’t have traditions that we *have* to do on Christmas Eve.

Now that we’re adults, most of our traditions have transitioned to something else. 🤷🏼‍♀️

🥳 So… if you’re home, why not make a little party for yourself??

Layer up some red sauce, cream cheese, mozzarella cheese, and top it like a pizza (which means you can put whatever pizza toppings YOU like!)… Bake it in the oven until bubbly and melty.

And serve with big hunks of bread for a new tradition!

⬇️ If you do have a Christmas Even Tradition, I’d love to hear it in the comments below!

The recipe can be found on my blog, but leave a 🍕 in the comments and I’ll zip the link over to you!
