This Sunday we got to do something we've been wanting to do for a very long time. As we're drawing ever closer to completion of the upper floor of the studio, we were able, today, to invite people up to the "karma kantina" to enjoy...

Those who eat a largely plant-based diet are frequently asked "How do you get your protein?" by well-intentioned enquirers. It's really not as hard as you may think. We've become so accustomed to the misconception that protein can only come from animals. However, many vegetables...

Recipe creation largely comes from two sources: (1) standing in front of the fridge or pantry and creating something with whatever I have on hand; or (2) being inspired by an existing product or recipe and wondering if I can make it better in any...

I have just a few short weeks to whip my boys into culinary masters - yikes! They will be off to university and fending for themselves. This heightened awareness of a very fast ticking clock that is called life has had me seeking out healthy...

I love dates. I have been known, when the sweet tooth strikes, to smear dates with peanut butter. (Oh, I just realized, I'm talking about the dates that grow on trees; not, you know, when someone asks you out. Sorry for the confusion.) This past Thursday...
