    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The Coziest Winter Nail Colors for January 2022

    The beginning of a new year often has us all feeling like starting off fresh by taking on better habits, getting rid of old ones, and—most commonly—changing up our look. While others are hitting the squats and going into the salon for a pixie cut, why not start slow and steady with a cozy winter manicure in a color that feels new to you? It takes only a little courage to step outside your usual OPI Lincoln Park After Dark or Essie Bordeaux, which is all you need to kick 2022 off on a fanciful foot.  From new wintry takes on classic dark nail colors to unique pops of color that'll have you feeling the opposite of boring, these are the best nail colors to try this January and tick off all the way into spring.

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    16 Kitchen Design Trends Southern Designers Predict Will Be Everywhere in 2022

    There's no denying how the pandemic fundamentally changed the world—including how we live (and work) inside our homes. An overall trend toward celebrating the history and originality of our homes is displacing ultramodern aesthetics and sharp lines as we all look to create cozier, colorful, more personalized spaces that better suit our lifestyles. We're turning away from big-box stores and toward vintage items—first, out of necessity due to supply-chain issues, and now, for design reasons—to add charm and character to every room in the house, including the kitchen. Here, interior designers from around the South share their predictions for what's trending in kitchen design for 2022 and beyond.

Sweet Potato Latkes

It isn't Hanukkah without the smell of freshly fried potato latkes lurking in the kitchen. But, who says latkes are the only side dish to serve during all of your Hanukkah festivities? From a deliciously Southern take on vegetable kugel to a challah recipe that will have the family hollerin' for more, some of our favorite foods for Hanukkah are a new take on traditional side dishes. Or, if you're looking to add a few greens to your mostly-fried mix of classic dishes, try our Sauteed Mustard Greens with Garlic and Lemon or our Broccolini with Pecans and Cane Syrup Vinaigrette. They're sure to help add balance to a week full of fried food. Whether you're hosting a Hanukkah get together each night or just once, we've got enough Hanukkah side dish recipe ideas to cover dinner all eight days.
