Was it my #education? I went to private schools through the ninth grade and I don’t remember being taught about Juneteenth. I went to an excellent public high school for three years, excelled in AP U.S. History my senior year, yet I don’t recall #juneteenth being taught. #truth

Big hands—they’re good for a lot of things, like rolling sushi 😊… thankfully my husband was willing to oblige me and help make homemade sushi along with 🦀 Rangoon and vegan egg rolls. Visit the blog to learn more.

Are Plant-Based Burgers Better—for your health? For the environment? There is room on your plate (and mine) for both plant-based “burgers” and beef burgers—but, is one better than the other? It’s debatable.

Always Speak Your Truth—even if your hands are shaking I’ve had a lot of turmoil over the past few years, and I can honestly say that far too many times I chose to be silent rather than speak my truth—and it’s caught up with me.
