A week without cookies is like a week without sunshine. We just can’t have that! Just because, come Sunday, we are going 5 Days Low Glycemic, doesn’t mean we can’t get creative with a few foods that, when combined, make up some kick-booty treats. Like these here little coconut ditties. Last week, I was indulging [...]

As I was preparing to write this post about everyone’s favourite dessert, I decided to do a little search on the ingredients of conventional marshmallows.

In to google went “marshmallow ingredients”. Out of google came “hooves”. (I seriously couldn’t make this stuff up!) I don’t know if there are hooves in the gelatin that are used in marshmallows but what I can say is that marshmallows most often contain a variety of artificial colour, artificial flavour, corn syrup, dextrose, gelatin, modified corn starch, natural flavour, sugar, tetrasodium pyrophosphate and water.

You may have noticed a theme this week. Between the French Toast Having Wings, King Chaga: Ruler Of The Land, and the old Create Your Own Burger Adventure we enjoyed yesterday. Yep. I have had super foods on the brain as I gear up for the first run of my bran shiny new workshop formerly known as Raw Super Food Power. All week I have been working away at the recipes and info for the two-hour session and have been so inspired by the amazingly delicious ways we can enjoy food as medicine. I don’t know about you but I would so much rather eat a cacao nib filled cookie than pop a magnesium supplement. Food as medicine is one thing, but cookies as medicine… Oh wow!

Friday You're In Love

IMG_6680

Day four of the 5 Day Vegan challenge. Four days with no meat, no dairy, no sugar and no gluten-containing goodies. I was afraid you might start hating me; resenting me for  putting you through this as the momentum may be wearing thin. Seems by Friday, a lot of people lose their healthy eating motivation. [...]

Cookies For Catherine

IMG_6472

Catherine Farquharson is a photographer. She is my favourite photographer. Not only does she take outstandingly gorgeous photos that make me want to put other people’s baby and wedding photos on my wall, but she had a birthday party in the park, and that makes her an eco-hipster too. She appropriately called it a ‘Parknic‘. [...]
