Why you should be eating 30 different plants a week
In the later half of the last decade, we've had a mega increase in documentaries (and for some I use that term extremely loosely) revolving around/supporting veganism and/or vegetarianism.

Happy New Year & my 2020 Goals

Revolution Rail & the Adirondacks

My Top 5 Kitchen Tools
The kitchen is the heart of any home. It's where everyone gathers to refuel, where important conversations are started, where memories are created with friends and family and where we connect by cooking together. I absolutely love being in my kitchen (outdated decor choices aside) it's one of my favourite rooms in my home. It's [...]
