most importantly love⠀
like it's the only thing you know how ⠀
at the end of the day all this⠀
means nothing⠀
this page⠀
where you're sitting⠀
your degree⠀
your job⠀
the money ⠀
nothing even matters⠀
except love and human connection⠀
who you loved⠀
and how deeply you loved them⠀
how you touched the people around you⠀
and how much you gave them ⠀

Took a swing at adapting my gram’s pumpkin roll

Took a swing at adapting my gram’s pumpkin roll recipe to make it vegan + gf. It will just be the two of us for Thanksgiving, so I’ve been making sentimental recipes that bring back memories from past holidays! Hope you’re able to stay warm, healthy, and enjoy the holiday however you might be spending it. Check out the full video and recipe in the link. Thanks @denis_aumiller for filming 🥰

Coming down from the whirl of current events and saw this statement from Senator Elizabeth Warren that I felt was worth repeating, “Our righteous fights are far from over.” Community engagement in my local government is where I continue to find hope. I pray the past does not become the present.

Fielding lots of questions about our current offer

Fielding lots of questions about our current offerings... so I thought I’d pop in and let you know we’re offering pick ups at our Brooklyn location or local deliveries (sorry no shipping) for tastings and cake orders. In the next couple months I’ll be sharing more content to guide you through all of your home baking adventures ❤️

Somewhere between my existential crisis and tree m

Somewhere between my existential crisis and tree meditations, sit unfinished baking projects. I made these coconut date balls and weeks after sitting in the fridge I finally got around to covering them with chocolate. Haven’t been in the mood to create and share, but these were scrumptious and relaxing to make and devour. Blend together, in a food processor, a cup of dates + shredded coconut, a little maple syrup and pinch of salt until sticky. Scoop into balls and cover with melted chocolate chips or cacao powder w/ oil + maple syrup to keep them raw. Finish with course sea salt!

Hi from Brooklyn, safe and well, taking a pause. Will be back soon. In the meantime, if you’re looking for something to brighten your day, I shared my vegan carrot-orange cupcake recipe with @thebeet. Slather on some apple or peanut butter while they’re still warm! Love, peace and light to you and yours.

Channeling my love through these gooey, stimulating, sultry, nourishing, indulgent mouthwatering delicious double chocolate raspberry hearts!
Double Chocolate Chip Nut Cookies
1 C almond butter (your fav nut butter)
1/2 C sugar (I used a mix of coconut + brown sugar)
1/3 C maple or agave
2 tbsp flax meal + 6 tbsp warm water
2 tsp instant coffee or espresso
1 1/2 C gf flour (sub w/ paleo or nut flour)
3/4 C cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 C mini choc chips
Preheat oven to 350, line baking sheet with parchment. Mix butter, sugar, + flax paste together. Add coffee, flour, cocoa, baking soda, salt, + chips until combined. Eat dough generously...er scoop and shape into hearts. Bake for 8-10 min (doesn’t take long). Fill with fav ice cream. Freeze and finish with sprinkles...if you don’t freeze in between steps they’ll ooze out like mine. All good, just messy.
