TGIF! Back in my non-vegan days, I used to look forward decadent coffee creamers over the holidays like Coffee-Mate’s Peppermint Mocha to turn my morning coffee into a seasonal dessert. Of all the flavors, peppermint was my favorite reminding me of peppermint stick ice cream and swiping candy canes from the family Christmas tree as […]
Dog Ranting & Hemp Curry Dressing
TGIF! I’m seriously ready for a little down time after the last few weeks and weekends being so packed with work, training and lots of little stuff in between. But I’m not looking forward to the house and yard work catch up we need to get to. There’s nothing worse than feeling like I’m running […]
Red Hemp Kale Chip Recipe

I’m pretty sure I don’t have an iron deficiency, but I’m going to check now anyway. I’ve also been enjoying a lot of fresh ginger […]
Creamy Cauliflower
This week feels like it’s dragging for me, seems like today should be Thursday, not Tuesday. Oh well. Interesting article from the New York times for a new Michael Pollan book and seems to support much of the raw diet. The second fact is that people who consume traditional diets, free of the ersatz foods […]
