  • REVIEW: Summer Favorites

    Hello! Now that Labor Day has come and gone and kids are officially back to school tomorrow around here, it’s fall in my book! I had every intention of keeping up with monthly favorites, but this summer just got away from me. I kept track of the products I enjoyed and books I loved, so…

  • RECIPE: Quinoa Apple Salad with Creamy Mustard Dressing

    If you follow me on Instagram, you might remember a post about Willow “cooking” me dinner in her little kitchen. She said she was making me a Quinoa Apple Salad. Where in the world did she come up with this?!?! I knew straight away that I had to create a “real” quinoa apple salad. I…

  • RECIPE: Golden Latte

    Last year, I discovered this amazing line of turmeric teas by Numi Organic Tea. They’re one of the few tea companies out there who don’t use bleached tea bags or “natural” flavors – They’re always organic, non-GMO, fair trade and they use REAL fruits, flowers and spices. We’ve been buying this brand from Natural Grocers, but I know you…

  • REVIEW: May Favorites

    Happy June, everyone!! Like all of the previous months, May flew by just as quickly. It was a bit of a rough month – a combination of rare gloomy weather, plenty of toddler meltdowns and some feelings of stress and being overwhelmed. But it’s a new month and I’m excited for what’s in store. The sun is back and summer…

  • RECIPE: Cheezy Garlic Tahini Sauce

    If you know me, you know I LOVE tahini. Love might even be an understatement…more like obsessed. I use it in smoothies, cookies, dressings and much more. The recipe I’m going to share with you today is one that I’ve been making for quite some time, each time it came out a bit differently, but always…

  • FRIDAY FEATURE: Interview with Julie of @bauersgovegan

    Happy Friday, everyone!! Today we’re talking with the lovely, humorous mama and friend, Julie of @bauersgovegan. We connected on Instagram during the early stages of our journey with Willow’s speech. Her kindness, compassion and positive attitude was extremely comforting. As the months went by, a friendship blossomed and I grew to really admire her as a mother and person…

  • RECIPE: Smoky Red Pepper-Cashew Cheeze Sauce

    It’s been a LONG time since I’ve shared a recipe with you! I’m horrible about writing down measurements as I’m going and I’ve learned that I can’t base it off of memory…my mama brain is overloaded! The last couple of months I’ve been busy making delicious recipes from blogs I follow. I’m a HUGE believer…

  • REVIEW: January Favorites

    Hello! Well, January flew by and I’m sad to say that I don’t have very many new favorites to share with you. Our January was consumed by loving up on our newest family member and working on a few projects! For those of you who do not follow me on Instagram, we adopted this beautiful senior dog,…

  • FRIDAY FEATURE: Interview with Laura from The Whole Ingredient

    Happy Friday, everyone!!! Before we dive into this wonderful interview, I feel the need to explain (again) why I’m running these features. I have met some amazing human beings who are spreading awareness and opening the eyes to those unsure about the vegan lifestyle. I’d say close to 90% of the people I’m featuring had once…

  • FRIDAY FEATURE: Interview with The Vegan 8

    Happy Friday, Everyone!!! I had the pleasure of interviewing Brandi, the brains behind The Vegan 8, for this week’s post. With each recipe Brandi creates, my admiration grows – her passion for health and the use of just a few ingredients is very appealing. The Vegan 8 blog is proof that vegan is nowhere near boring or…
