Exclusive! Behind the scenes on our new cover shoot

Future Admin March 22, 2013

People are at the heart of The Simple Things, so we decided to put them on the cover...

The urbanite who takes the time to show us round their city, the expert who shares their wisdom on specialist foods, the writer who helps send us off to bed, it is stories of life and people which fill our pages and make The Simple Things what it is.

Meet Teyha, Laura and John. Parents, friends, cooks, and the cover stars of this month's issue of The Simple Things.

Teyha lives with her daughter Isa (pictured below) in Nevada City California, where John works as a chef and lives with his girlfriend Laura and their son Desmond (also pictured below). The friends recently got together to share and enjoy a tasty Mexican buffet, a gathering we share inside Issue 8.

 "It's always a pleasure to get together a bunch of friends for a lazy afternoon of cooking..."

"Mexican food for me is all about enjoying family..."

We use real people in our mag not models because The Simple Things is about life, and we wanted to celebrate that on the cover. What do you think?

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
