In HFD’s series Get Cookin’, we share highly-reviewed cookbooks by chefs you know and others you may not.
We’re always on the hunt for new, and preferably easy, dishes to add to our repertoire. So, we searched the Internet for highly-rated cookbooks to share here on Home for Dinner. If the photography, illustrations, and reviews are any indication, these cookbooks should be a great addition to your kitchen library. First up: Add a Pinch by Robyn Stone.
Though model homes are essentially home staging on overdrive, they can provide a treasure trove of design inspiration – especially when done this well. The Watermark model home found waaaaay up north in Calgary, is a lesson in balanced eclecticism. Dubbed “Prairie Modern,” its design style mixes traditional, rustic, and contemporary elements. The home also features custom millwork throughout (see the kitchen and bedroom for example). From brass accents to muted textiles, there’s a bit of inspiration for every decor.
Fall is officially underway and with it comes some of our favorite perks of the season – the changing leaves, sporting your best layered look, and, of course, the sweets! And we don’t just mean desserts. Try one of these recipes to start your day with a little fall flavor.

Switch up your Halloween scenery this year. Rather than buy new decorations for every holiday, get creative with Christmas lights. Dig out your tree lights — or shop for new, updated options — and turn them into spooky Halloween decor. The best part? Reusing lights for two different holidays frees up more storage space for you. You won’t need to double up on Halloween and Christmas decor, so you can store twice as much and save money in the process.

From the dramatic ceilings to the industrial staircase housed in the barn’s old silo, the home seamlessly melds rustic with modern.

I’m so glad you stopped by! Pull up a chair and hang out with us for a little bit. Many say the kitchen is the heart of the home. It’s where family and friends gather to share experiences, laughter, and, of course, food. Food has a special way of bringing people together. From cooking to dining, nothing comforts like enjoying food at home. I’m sure you will agree.
Home for Dinner combines my passion for real estate and a love of food. And, I do love both! It brings together the many aspects of home life – from finding a new house (or condo or apartment), making it a home, moving onto the next and enjoying some fabulous meals in between. Follow us for home advice, real estate tips, recipes, and more from around Philadelphia and beyond.
Cheers,
