A lot of you know creating raw cheesecakes is one of my greatest pleasures. Case in point: This Strawberry Stunner. Matcha-infused. A holiday favorite. Key Lime with hidden veggies. And a few others in the archives. Creating these cakes seriously gives me life! And improves my mood times a million =) I consider cheesecake blending/testing my emotional equivalent to coconut oil as fix-all to skin problems. That’s a big statement, I know! My coconut butter and oil, […]

Hi! Hey! Have a told you . . . That I really hate . . . CARROTS! Yes, really. Unless they are really really tiny and hidden in soup or bolognese, get away from me!!! And I especially hate them raw.

The number of food bloggers that exist in the black hole we call the internet has grown, and continues to grow, expotentially. And the number of cookbooks? Let’s just say it would be easy to fill a massive library with nothing but cookbooks. I can’t say I mind endlessly browsing through cookbooks, but […]

Today we’re making some veggie-packed enchiladas with a kick-butt homemade salsa verde. But first . . . Today I woke up with a pile of work to do for both home and business. Lately my schedule has been full of podcasts, more blog posts and exploring ways to expand my business! All exciting stuff, but it often leads to a racing mind, and productivity sometimes turns into distraction. Today is one of those days, so […]
