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

“…Tell me something good!”

🙋🏼‍♀️ Well, y’all Imma tell you something *real* good!

It’s also 10:30 am, and Imma make you hungry… prepare yourself!

Chicken Pot Pie is calling your name, and I’ve got the recipe that will have your people gathered up around the table in no time.

People are pretty nostalgic about their pot pies—did your mama or grandmama make one you just *loved*?!

🎟 I’ve got your ticket to an undeniably creamy, dreamy, unctuous chicken pot pie that will have your Fall dreams coming true.

We’ll start by roasting a chicken—and y’all it’s not complicated.

👩🏼‍🍳 Then, you’ll tie your apron on and get started with your southern belle heroics of making a roux with the sautéed veggies.

This will simmer with Thanksgiving-esque spices of sage, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper.

Ladle all of this into a pie crust, arrange the top, and bake until golden brown.

The smells that waft through your home while this is baking are the scents of history books.

This is one of the sneaky recipes that I’ll make two, and freeze one for the week of Thanksgiving or the busy month of December.

💳 It’s how I buy myself precious time in the future, by working a little harder tonight.

So, if you’re drooling and your tummy’s rumbling, attach a 🤤 to your comment and I’ll zip the recipe over to you!

Hey, y’all! Happy Monday! I’ve got a bunch of

Hey, y’all! Happy Monday!

I’ve got a bunch of new faces, 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.

In my hands is one of my top five favorite books, The Art of Gathering. It’s filled with ways you can gather people well, and serve them. ((And no, it’s not *really* about dinner parties… it’s more about business gatherings in meetings and such.))

What is your on your top book list??

🤹‍♀️ It’s hard juggling working, cooking, and life together — there is no getting around it.

🏎 Fast track to #flavortown with this cheeky time-saving Meal Prep Ranch Grilled Chicken Recipe!

When you have a container of this chicken in your fridge, ready to go, here are some dinner ideas for during the week:

🥗 Top any salad
🌮 Slice up for Chicken Tacos
🍝 Mix with Pasta and Veggies for a Pasta Primavera
🥪 Make Monterey Chicken Sandwiches (it’s got BACON!)

💳 Buy yourself precious time and let your grill do the work, freeing up the headspace you crave.

We’re all in a very odd, very busy season of life.

By 🕕 o’clock the bandwidth to handle the thought process of “what’s for dinner?” is low.

Let’s keep working on managing our time well, by taking one decision out of the mix—DINNER.

I’ve got all these recipes + tons of other in Easy Recipes for Busy Weeknights! It's a digital cookbook filled with recipes that will help you WIN at the end of a long, busy day!

It feels like a good evening to stick a wheel of b

It feels like a good evening to stick a wheel of brie in the oven with apricot jam on top…

Y’all! This appetizer, snack, whatever time of day recipe is SO easy.

It’s 3️⃣ ingredients!

✅ Brie Wheel (I cut the rind off…)
✅ Apricot Jam
✅ Red Pepper Flakes

You pop it into the oven for about 10 minutes, or until it’s incredibly melty and delicious.

Serve it with a board filled with crackers and you’ve got an instant party!

These are the ingredients you should keep on hand for when people stop by the last minute.

((Do people even still do that?! Ugh, Rona! You ruin everything.))

IF someone were to stop by, having these on hand is a simple way to love your people well.

You get extra time with them while the brie bakes, and then you get to enjoy the theatrical cheese pull when scooping a serving onto your plate.

It’s a simple, yet impossibly amazing snack!

Serve this last minute or for a fancy cocktail party this Christmas season!

What are your favorite snacks to serve last-minute guests?!

🏈 “The One with the Football”

Oh, man! This is a GREAT episode—the Friends play a VERY competitive game of Football and learn lots of history about the Gellar family. 😬

What is it about Thanksgiving and playing football on the lawn that just goes together?? ((My family has actually never done this… we WATCH football…!))

Sooo, let’s chat about games + thanksgiving day. 🦃

Yes! There is a big football game on at some point.

But, do y’all play actual board games, etc?? 🎲

We did! And it was a highlight of most of my Thanksgivings.

You eat for a bit, play games, eat some more, play a few more games.

Something that works well is having several options for games. That way everyone doesn’t *has* to play that same game—unless that’s your MO as a family!

What games do you enjoy playing on Thanksgiving?!

It’s Wednesday, y’all. And it’s POWERSHEETS

It’s Wednesday, y’all. And it’s POWERSHEETS LAUNCH DAY! 🥂✨💕

Being home is giving me time to really think through exactly what I want in life and what I need to do to get there.

—

Have you ever thought about your life plan? Your 1 year, 3 years, 5-year plan??

It’s kind of daunting to think about, isn’t it?!

🥳 Do you get excited about planning ahead for the future?

🤯 Or do your palms get sweaty, and your heart starts racing?!

As an enneagram 3, I really enjoy planning for the future — I am driven by goals. 📈

📝 Writing down a goal and some action steps are what really melts my 🧈, and gets me excited for the days, weeks, years ahead.

I’ve been using Powersheets for several years now (since 2014!).

Year after year, I look through the goals I’ve set and think “Wow, I really have nothing to show…”

But!

2020 is the roaring lion we didn’t know we needed to wake us all up out of a very deep slumber. 🦁

It’s shown me that I HAVE accomplished a lot — that I *can* achieve my goals.

Little by little, seeds are planted, and they bloom through the messy dirt. 🌱

The new collection launched today, and if you’re curious, I’d love to start a conversation with you about my goal-setting process! Slide on over into the DMs, and let’s chat.

Do you set goals?! What’s your process?!

Slide through the carousel to see the items I'm MOST excited about! 🍾

🥂 Cheers, y’all! It's cocktail time!

This Blueberry Smash Spritz is the thirst-quenching pick me up you need this evening!

Fresh blueberries are smashed with sugar, mint leaves, and a slice of lemon. 🍋

Then it’s shaken with @teremana tequila and @cointreau_us for a tart cocktail that will make your skirt fly up! 💃🏻

Top with some soda water, a sprig of mint, lemon slice, and some frozen blueberries.

Now, set a minute on your porch and just be. 🪑

How are you working your way through the week??

⏰ “The One Where Everyone’s Late”

This might be one of my favorite #Friends Thanksgiving episodes. It’s the last thanksgiving episode—a sad day in 2003!

In this episode Monica is making a full Thanksgiving meal after her peeps told her to… but they all show up over an hour late. 😤

We already talked about how much lateness is a no-no—but, let’s talk about some ways it makes the host FEEL.

Yep! Get your feelers ready, I’m going there…

Your host has worked HARD on the meal—whether you’re bringing something or not!

✅ They’ve done the math to get the dish from unbaked to baked at the right temperature and the correct amount of time…

✅ They’ve set the table, and prepared for YOU…

✅ They’ve been planning and planning…

The Art of 🌟Magical🌟Gatherings teaches people to ‘effortlessly’ host people in their homes, and create magic.

But, I’ll tell you this: you ain’t gonna have ANY magic if people show up late… your host’s magical feelers run in a thin margin… just saying…

The Art of Magical Gatherings guides you to an unbelievably smooth Thanksgiving (and Christmas + New Year!), and you’ll have the mental capacity to ‘handle’ the latecomers—all with a smile!

🙋 Who’s ready for a roadmap to lead them to magical holiday gatherings?!
