Feline Farewells, Dragon Dreams, & Significant (Other) Updates
Is it already time to celebrate the arrival of another new year? 🐱>🐉 🤔 The Year of The Cat was an absolutely amazing, often intense, and incredibly educational journey––despite having commenced rather peculiarly/formidably. Looking back it now feels like one of the best years I’ve had in ages, possibly ever. Even in consideration of a few (then) seemingly endless difficulties faced along the way, it actually proved to be an incredibly momentous, transformational period for me––as I suppose is meant to be...
Read MoreConciousness & Sustainability for ALL
Happy Summertime, friends!? I’ve been in and out of hiatus for awhile (not online so much, as I’m sure many have noticed), and just now finding a moment to mention a bit of what I’ve been up to! For those who haven’t already heard, today (Sunday the 17th of July, 2016) I’ll be presenting a live raw/living/wild food workshop & speaking with my friends Lauren & Ande from Lola’s Botanicals in an open discussion about “Consciousness & Sustainability for All”...

Happy Lunar New Year! This time of year marks that particular moment when many of us (myself included) choose to observe onset of a new full calendar reset – and in this case the Year of The Monkey. In honour of kindred primates worldwide, this seems more than an appropriate time to celebrate with the best possible food to fuel primates of all species (including humans): FRUIT! As it seems that ritual accompanies the onset of each new year, symbolism always plays an integral role in the way many of us are...
Read MoreNoodling About with Spiral Slicers & Thai Nut Butter Sauce
Warm greetings to you, kind reader, and a bittersweet farewell to 2015 As promised per my previous post, I have more to share in relation to some testing I’ve been doing of various attachments acquired for use with the KitchenAid Artisan series stand mixer I’ve recently inherited upon the passing of my dear father. This holiday season has been incredibly difficult without him, and experimentation with one of his most liked gadgets was meant to bring a bit of joy into a heart-heavy journey...
Read MoreRaw & Vegan Thousand Island
Thousand Island? I always found this particular dressing to be incredibly odd, right down to the name. What exactly is it? How did it come to be known by such a strange name? Does it ever go off? Is that colour really natural? O_o Growing up in a household which may possibly have been considered to be the polar opposite of vegan, I noticed a rather strange habit my father had of persistently stocking our pantry to the gills with hos own regular “staples” (none of which ever seemed to consist of...
Read MoreSpicy Raw Vegan “Nacho Cheese”
Happy (nearly) Full Moon! Wouldn’t it be wild if the moon just happened to be made of (raw vegan) cheese? 😉 Whilst musing such mirthful fancies, I’ve decided that this week would be as good a time as any to share an exceedingly simple, low-fat, creamy & seemingly decadent raw vegan formulation with all of you! I’m posting a few days early (just in time for #VeganRecipeHour), since I wanted to have something up for the occasion and shall once again be working away at a client’s place...
