Review & Giveaway: Glass Dharma Straws

Happy New Moon (in June)!  Now that we are merely days away from Summer’s majestic arrival, what better time could there be to rejuvenate with deliciously nutrient-rich fresh juices? With everything set up in my kitchen for ultimate juicification (and subsequent enjoyment), I am presently in the midst of month-long juicing frenzy! Considering all of the juicing posts I’ve been seeing here and there over the past week or so, it strikes me as if the Juicy June bug seems to have bitten many of us...

Juice Pulp Artistry

This month I was presented with the best gift ever, as an offering for my birthday/23rd Veganniversary/”get well soon” (how long does it take to fully recover from a broken knee,  anyway?)/Lorax Communuity project & book helper – a Sedona RAW FOOD dehydrator from Tribest!

Vegan Bite By Bite

Although not normally one to get caught up in the “holiday gift ideas” frenzy, I found myself compelled to say a few words about a new discovery which impressed me as a great “jumping off” point for those who are just beginning their respective journeys down the path to vegan and raw vegan dietary transitions. This wonderful resource was recently brought to my attention by an exceptionally delightful author (and fellow longtime vegan) by the name of Marilyn Peterson, whose incredible 32...

Sea Spaghetti

I recently opted to try “Sea Spaghetti” (also known as Himanthalia Elongata) for experimental use in some Italian style, raw “pasta” dishes. This item had been described tender, mild in flavour, and similar in texture to al dente pasta. It was also described as being less “overpowering” than other sea vegetables such as certain kelp varieties, which made sea spaghetti sound ideal in recipes where traditional, grain-made pastas would generally be used. Photography I had seen on...
