Blog and Activities

In addition to the recipes I share with you on this site, I also wanted to make a space to share about life and the things I love, as well as hear from you and highlight some parts of life that bring you joy and the things that you do to make the world a better place! I'm creating a book club with monthly reads here (and a connected video meeting for all interested), and you can click the Get In Touch button to contact me about being a part of the video meeting! Thanks for visiting, and I wish you health and happiness!
