Death Before Life
by Leave a Comment I’ve been thinking a lot about death in various forms. And I’m ready for death. No, I am not ready to die. But I am ready for death to come now, to make way for the life to come after it. As I reflect on this year, I think about how a lot of things...
Twenty-Five
by 2 Comments Dense. That’s the word I would use to describe this last year. Not just 2020, but my last year around the sun as I enter into my 25th year of this beautiful life. I was grabbing coffee with a friend and we were talking about how we were doing with all that’s going on...
Thai Salmon Curry
by 1 Comment Remember that time how I said I eat salmon every single day? Well If you didn’t know, I absolutely do. Anything that can be made with salmon, I will use salmon. This recipe is no exception. It wasn’t until recent years that I started eating and even liking curry. And when I say curry, I’m...

Flourless Fudgy Black Bean Brownies
by Pantry foraging is an art that a lot of us are crafting at the moment. But there’s only so many ways you can eat canned goods, and to be honest, they don’t always taste the best. As if fate knew, I happened upon a recipe that created dense, fudgy and healthy brownies from canned black...
Coconut Berry Baked Oatmeal
by My love of oatmeal knows no bounds. In college I used to eat oatmeal PLAIN. No brown sugar, no milk, legit just water and oatmeal. And if that wasn’t weird enough, I actually LIKED it that way. Before both of my half-marathons, my breakfast was tuna and oatmeal (protein and carbs, it makes sense). When...
