Learning Life
For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to learn to play the cello. There’s something about that instrument that ravishes me every time I hear it. I feel it first in my belly as its notes swell with passion, then it traverses the length of my body as if I were being played by the master as well.

Mellow Melon Smoothie
Drink in the mellow goodness of summer with this thick and creamy smoothie that refreshingly fills the gap between meals – or even replaces one. I had this before a workout and was fully energized without feeling full.
Sweet Potato Swooning
This is one of my all-time favorite winter soups. It’s rich and creamy and sweet and dense with sweet potatoes and coconut milk with a balance of brightness from ginger and lime.
