It’s not just about salads and tofu people.
Try this: Leek and Bean Cassoulet with Biscuits
Just one thing for the planet – plants are delicious, especially kale
All time favourite salad.
Just one thing for wellness – Black Magic latte
My new addiction. Good for a night cap, or a gentle afternoon treat, or a snuggle with your pup, or while watching the kids at gym, or walking in the woods.
I don’t know if any of these ingredients do anything for you. But, my instincts are usually good. AND, I do know what they DON’T do … hurt you, hurt the planet, hurt anything else.
As always … try it … is it better than an afternoon caffeine jolt, alcohol before bed, a blob of something processed … could be!?! Plus, the companies are fairly rad.
Enjoy.
Put into a small blender/NutriBullet:
2tbsp of SunPotion Tocos
2tbsp of BalckMagic Chaga Rootbeer Elixir
Enough hot water to fill a mug.
*optional dust at will … currently I do a little pine pollen and reishi. Why? ’cause it’s fun.
Blend briefly, pour into fave mug, sip.

Essential watching
The word “enough” bounced around my head for most of 2018. I adore how it is alluded to here (clip below). It is such a balance to be happy with enough but strive for better. How does one be gentle but also fierce? I don’t know, but I’m getting there. And I too believe that it is possible and it lies deep within all of us. Please listen to this.
2018
Goodnight friends,
This year we gave to Greenpeace, opened the door to volunteering with them, we gave to the Latitude Project and the San Juan Del Sur day school.
We bought a home in Nicaragua and stumbled upon a community that fills the heart.
We wrote about injustice, endurance, drive, gratitude, intervals, intuition, motherhood, what it is to be shy and also the bright light. We covered going into battle in relationships, misogyny, marathons, and the dance that goes on inside of us.
Music was played often. Some was angsty, some was pop-y, all was groovy.
Plants were eaten and we learned how, one step at a time, we could do a little more good.
Thank you for coming along with me.
Can you imagine what 2019 will bring?
I hope as you lay your head on your pillow tonight you are at peace and fulfilled. If you aren’t, no big deal, there’s always tomorrow.
