Last week, I showed you a slew of recipes featuring strawberries and greens, because the folks at Relay Foods had given me a chance to sample their local Bounty Box (similar to a CSA box). It was brimming with leafy greens and tender plump strawberries (finally, tis the season). The greens lasted me quite a [...]

Recently, my friends at Vega asked if I might be interested in sampling and reviewing their Vega One bar–a new extension of the Vega One line, which already includes Vega One shake. I said of course! The Vega vibrancy bars and the Vega Sport protein bars have gotten me through many a long day and [...]

When she sent me her Green Recovery story, she told me that it had been a long time coming. I’d secretly hoped she’d write a post, [...]

Last summer, I spoke at The Seed, a vegan lifestyle conference. My presentation was on the “semi-raw” life–an approach to eating raw food that focuses on taste and creativity without getting trapped in pseudoscience or dogma. This year, I'm delighted to say that I'll be back for more. On May 18th and 19th–just about [...]

They say it takes 21 days to make or break a major lifestyle habit. We should probably take this with a grain of salt, because habits run deep, and change is different from person to person. But I think there's something to the idea that, after a few weeks of trying something new, we can [...]

One of the nicest things about having the MCAT behind me is being able to spend a little more time in the kitchen. In the last few weeks I've been able to cook a little more, wean myself off the excess coffee, and get back in touch with my favorite wholesome habits. One of these [...]

@Bringjoyj ...which may be why criticism resonates. I can actually see all sides, rather than just my position. 12 hrs 18 min ago
