Healthy Consumption for the Mind, Body, and Soul
Capitalism always finds a way to win, whether we like it or not. Any exchange of dollars in a free market, even to a small local business right smack in your neighborhood, is participation in consumerism. There’s an ickiness to the notion of consumerism, let alone just typing it out or verbalizing it, right? Fortunately,…

The Best Healthy Desserts in Los Angeles (Part 1)
This is a love song to all my dessert fanatics! Respectfully, I must cordially request anybody who doesn’t have a raging sweet tooth to leave. TOTALLY kidding. However, perhaps we can convert you otherwise. Let’s be honest, here: healthy desserts in Los Angeles are plentiful to go ’round. Perhaps not in the most budget-friendly forms…not…

A Word About Romanticizing Your Life
Romanticize, romantic, romanticism, romance…they’re all naturally beautiful words, aren’t they? As of lately, romanticize is a hot buzzword that conveys the illustration of either a person, place, circumstance, or idea in a fashion that reminds people in an idealistic, pedestalized, sometimes dream state. In other words: anything romanticized can easily be dismissed by a skeptic.…

Berry Cookie Smoothie Bowl
As you can see, I’ve been on a little bit of a smoothie bowl kick. Well, lately it’s been a yogurt bowl kick, but smoothie bowls are a VERY close second. Thanks to Vegan Street Fair, I retrieved countless vegan protein powder samples to play with! In the reel below, I used Naturade Life’s vegan…

Six Vegan-Friendly Ice Cream Shops in Los Angeles that are SO Good I Might Cry
People know me as someone who’s an avid Pilates lover. Someone who is Erewhon-obsessed. But just as much as I love greens powders and hot lemon ginger water, I could eat ice cream like it’s my job (wouldn’t that be sort of nice? Getting paid to consume what you love most?), which I probably shouldn’t.…

These Protein Bars Ruined My Life
I’ve written many a love letters to Erewhon (exhibit A), but to write to these protein bars mandates a trilogy. A series longer than Lord of the Rings. With a pending conclusion. I can’t do this anymore. Think of any relationship where the two partners just can’t get their hands off of each other, and…

No-Bake Pumpkin Spice Dough Bites
Pumpkin spice lattes, pumpkin pie, pumpkin bread, pumpkin bagels…there is no shortage of our love for pumpkin spice and the pumpkin fruit itself when it comes to enjoying food!

Being Vegan in San Francisco vs. Los Angeles: How Do They Compare?
All my life until mid-September in 2016, I’ve been a SoCal woman. I’m still natively SoCal, but it’s taken over 18 years for me to experience life in a new city (San Luis Obispo) in Central California. One area that is even more popular in California as a state would be the Bay Area. This…

In Honor of National Ice Cream Month…
…in general, it is TREMENDOUSLY challenging for me to select one favorite dessert. Coffee cake any day. Mango sticky rice until I die. A whole plate of chocolate chip cookies will win me over more quickly than a diamond ring. Peanut butter chickpea blondies….OOF. Having said that, ice cream holds an incredibly special place in…

Why I Stopped Intermittent Fasting Every Day
Good old IF…or as one would say, eye-eff. Intermittent fasting: a time-oriented method of dieting (not an actual diet) where one undergoes precisely measured and specific allotments of time to eat and the rest to fast (by that, we mean no calories or net macros). There is a plethora of studies and works of research…
