Artizone Dallas Food Delivery

“What’s for dinner?”
“Uhg, I don’t know. What are you in the mood for?”
“Anything.”
“This is so annoying. Just pick!”
“I picked last time. You pick!
“I am cooking. YOU pick!”

Yes, this is embarrassingly how my husband and my usual conversation goes when we are deciding on what to eat.  It is one of the only challenges marriage has brought this far – choosing what to eat for the week. Figuring this out, making the list, and then going out and buying the food for one person was always stressful enough, but two, I might as well be on a high does of xanax every Monday morning. I know, i know, this is totally a first world problem but for as much as I love food, I loath the process of buying and making it even more. Sometimes it is just too much work to come up with a list, buy the necessary ingredients, and make the dish that I get overwhelmed and just order in. I know it sounds ridiculous but I always say when I become fabulously wealthy the first thing I will have is a personal live-in chef who also does ALL of the grocery shopping! Want to know a secret to cutting out 2/3 of the work, basically having a personal shopper, and not having to be fabulously wealthy? Aritzone. Yes, miracle.

I can’t even begin to explain what a lifesaver Artizone is to any household.  You can literally go to their site, find your groceries, and voila they are delivered to your door the next day. You can also shop by recipe which is a game changer! I used to stress about what to make and then making sure I bought all the proper ingredients but Artizone does it for you! If that wasn’t enough to sell you I have a few more points that you will love – not only are the products of the highest quality but everything is local! I.love.this. I absolutely love supporting small business and Artizone is a master at it. All of their products are hand selected from local stores which makes it feel like you are not only getting quality but also like you just raided your moms pantry. It all just feels so homey and yummy. My favorite discovery? Kulfi Ice Cream. My husband and I melt over these bars. They are made with four ingredients that you can actually pronounce and are only 140 calories. I am not an ice cream lover but these are unreal! Trust me on that!

Artizone is my new lifesaver and I hope you get to try them out because I promise, your life will be changed. You place the order in the morning and you get the food that evening or the next day. Andddd delivery cost is only $5. I know, I know. Insane!  It is so stress free I feel ridiculous I ever worried about groceries before. So for the best part of this entire post – Artizone is offering my readers a 20% discount on their orders for the next week. Enter MAS20 at checkout and voila! life.changing. Even if you don’t buy for yourself it would make the perfect gift – making sure your husband eats well while you are away, sending to your elderly parents who can’t make it to the store anymore, or giving to your kids in college who are too lazy to go out and buy quality food. Possibilities are endless. I personally would have loved for my mom to send me some groceries when I was in college (cough, cough)…or now? Mom, are you listening? Helllooooooo….?! Okay so you aren’t reading but the delivery cost is so inexpensive I think I can handle this on my own.  I hope you try it out and let me know what you think!

Brass Etagere Score

I have always been so enamored with brass etageres. I used to search the web for hours picking out my favorite one. It was always this beautiful, but out of budget, Worcester from Arteriors. We were almost ready to pull the trigger on this lucite and brass etagere from Jonathan Adler until we realized it was much too short. The space we needed to fill in our bedroom is quite long and very tall so the piece had to fit a few requirements. Back to the drawing board. It had been about a year of searching for an etagere with the right look, size, and price. I pride myself on my ability to find the perfect piece at the right price but sometimes you just have to know when to throw the towel in.

About a year later I was chatting with my friend Sally who told me I had to check out Scout Design Studio. I instantly followed them on Instagram and became obsessed with their daily posts. Everything they received or posted about was perfect. From bar carts to chairs, to tables and rugs, it was all amazing. I decided to take a trip into the store and was instantly pleased. I took a walk around the store and stopped at a brass etagere. The poor thing looked straight out of the 70’s (and in the worst way possible) but it had potential. Through all the dust and wood I definitely saw its potential. It was also the exact measurements I had been looking for a year before. Totally serendipitous.  Since it was a piece in need of TLC or a definite make-over the sweet owner told me he would sell it to me for $150. I swear I couldn’t believe my ears. Even if I hated the piece I could find it in my heart to love anything for $150! Never in my wildest dreams did I believe I could find an etagere for that price. Better news was yet to come – they would take off the wood and paint the etagere right there in the store. I debated with doing a really cool lacquer color on top but ended up doing a gold that would match the brass. I was in designer heaven!

Two weeks later the piece arrived at my front door. I was both nervous and excited to see what the outcome of my total transformation would be. Total shock! Not only had they matched the gold paint but you couldn’t even tell it was paint! I was blown away by their ability to completely make this piece look new. I am so excited to start styling the piece (that post to follow) but for now I am basking in my incredible find! I guess patience does pay off in the end!
