    From Houseplants to Produce

    Over the past few years my interest in keeping and growing plants has grown by leaps and bounds. And, based off the reactions to some of my recent IG posts, I’m not alone. Our new home was nearly 2 years in the making. Shortly before the process began in earnest I became super interested in home gardening and ways to maximize small spaces. I knew there would be some challenges with growing in the desert but as I did more research I realized it wasn’t impossible — but more on the ‘how’ later. For now, let’s talk about what made me want to do this in the first place. Reasons…

    Turmeric, Rosewater & Aztec Healing Clay Mask

    Follow my blog with Bloglovin If you read my previous blog post about Aztec Magic Healing Clay – Aztec Magic Healing Clay is, Well…Magical – then you already know I stan to the moon and back for this stuff. It boasts a variety of qualities, making it incredibly beneficial for skin and hair – especially when mixed with my other boo, ACV. It’s my go-to for detoxing and refreshing my skin after stress, travel and any day that ends in ‘y’ because it’s quick, easy, effective and cheap. Over the past few months I’ve been running about juggling travel to Calgary, a big upcoming move, hosting family for their first…

FOOD + NUTRITION It’s Like Milk but Made for Humans Vegan oat-based milk alternative, Oatly, far exceeded sales goals thanks in part to a clever marketing campaign and has now inked a deal to increase its production 8-fold with the opening of a new bottling plant in Millville, New Jersey. Their success has attracted would-be competition, with Quaker Oats announcing the launch of their own oat milk scheduled for January 2019.

    Five Easy Product Replacements for More Sustainable Living

    Part of my motivation for becoming vegan was the impact that animal agriculture has on our planet. And, while just cutting out meat can greatly lessen your personal carbon footprint, it’s just the beginning. At times, the bad news about the state of the environment can seem overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. There are small but significant things we can all do to help. I’m no expert, but over the past year, I’ve made a few changes in my personal life to further lessening my impact on the planet. Not only do I feel better, it’s saved me a little moola in the long run too.  If sustainability…

    Things to Do on Oahu: Manoa Falls Hike

    I have very simple goals on vacation. I’m trying to eat all the things, drink all the things and lounge contentedly. My brain thinks this is a great plan, my jeans…notsomuch. So, I trick my brain (and my body) into getting some work in with outdoor activities. Luckily, Oahu offers dozens of fantastic hikes of varying difficulty. I was able to override the groaning of the rest of my party long enough to convince them to go on a few, including Manoa Falls. Manoa Falls is a 150ft waterfall nestled 30-45 minutes into a gorgeous, prehistoric-looking jungle. We saw everything from guava to super tall bamboo and some breathtaking vistas.…

    (Vegan) Taco Night!

    #Turnip vs #Turn Up

    Once upon a time, Friday night was reserved for the #turnup. Generally, it began with the reluctant acceptance of a happy hour invite and ended hours later in a cracked Denny’s booth.     At some point, the shenanigans lost their luster and my preference for doing my Friday night drinking (wine, natch) in the peace and quiet of my own home, swaddled in the comfort of a good pair of pajamas and the make-believe world of a binge-worthy Netflix series emerged. That is until I discovered the best thing ever… GROCERY SHOPPING ON FRIDAY NIGHTS Ok, ‘best thing ever’ might be a bit of a stretch but bear with me. Imagine…

    What’s in a Word (Veganism)

    Ugh. Honestly, I think it was the bacon that finally did me in.  An overabundance of the cloyingly fat-laden, skin searing meat candy known as bacon made my taste buds flip. One day, in the midst of my Atkins/low-carb/keto madness, I looked longingly at an apple as I shoved another forkful of bacon & some egg mixture into my face and I thought ‘enough is enough’. How does a diet that says apples are ‘bad’ for you but bacon is ‘good’ really healthy? How does that make any logical sense?! I happened by veganism innocently enough. There was no binge-watching of documentaries or huge epiphany. Just, one day, I looked at…
