Axiology Natural Organic LipstickA few weeks ago, I received a Christmas present from my friend Ericka Rodriguez. She sent me a vegan lipstick from her line, Axiology Natural Organic Lipstick, in the color "Elusive", which is one shade above the darkest. You can see all of the shades here. I am so overwhelmingly pleased with this lipstick that I decided I would do a blog post on it so that you all can consider giving these a try.

No Harsh Chemicals, No Animal Testing!

The ingredients are all natural, organic, vegan and most importantly, pronounceable. There are not random fillers, non-vegan coloring or harsh chemicals, and these babies are pigmented by fruit and other earth pigments, like avocado butter and orange oil. I will discuss the ingredients below :) IMG_1227

5Healthy Chocolate Dessert HummusHealthy, Chocolate, Hummus?! What?! YES. Well, I call this hummus because it has beans in it, but it could also be considered a pudding or simply a dip for the matter. Whatever it is to you, just make it, please. You will thank me later.

How to Adopt A Plant-Based Diet and Succeed

Healthy Vegan Holiday Gift Guide and Ideas 2014Fresh, local organic goodies!

  • All you need to do is purchase a cute box or basket (or recycle one/DIY) and fill it with the person's favorite produce items or produce that is seasonal in local to you, from places such as a farmer's market.
  • You can also pick out produce and put little notes on each, saying why you chose that ingredient or why it reminds you of the person.
  • Fill the box with specific ingredients and attach a recipe card for the person's favorite recipe and an "rsvp" phone number (yours) to set a date for you two to cook the recipe together.

Silly me forgot to bring my camera to the event, so get ready for some iphone photos! I will start by saying THANK YOU to Melissa's Produce! Nick at Melissa's Produce was kind enough to invite me to the Kitchen Aid Torrent Blender Launch Party they held in their Los Angeles test kitchen last Thursday! I decided I would document the night and share with you a review on the blender that is to be released next year. I will also do a review up close and personal with the blender as well, but that will be for another day :) IKitchen Aid Torrent Blender Launch Party + Melissa's ProduceI was accompanied by my beautiful friend, the one and only Yvonne Ardestani of My Eclectic Kitchen. (If you don't already have you hands on her app or ebook, you need to check them out!) And of course I had to rock my Green Juice Tote at the event as well, everyone loved it I was so flattered!

Black Rice Pilaf + Veganish Book Review & Giveaway"Eat Smart, Get Healthy and Feel Beautiful Inside & Out"

Today I am going to review for you another resource that I recommend as part of my How to Adopt A Plant-Based Diet and Succeed. What I have here today is Veganish: The Omnivores Guide To Plant-Based Cooking. This book is definitely something I wish I had had while transitioning into a plant-based diet from a standard American diet. It covers literally every aspect of plant-based cooking, both nutritionally and culinarily. It basically helps you transition with no fears, worries or temptations. It covers any and every type of recipe you may be craving, and will help you prove to yourself, and the world, that living this lifestyle is not only easy, but it is enjoyable and such a beautiful way to live.

If you have ever dreamed of having a personal chef  to provide you with not only a healthy diet, but one that is great tasting, this book will do just that. Veganish offers a holistic approach to food that will make you healthy AND satisfied. This book will be your go-to guide.
