I scream, you scream, we all scream for (raw) ice cream! Yeah baby… This brand, Cashewtopia, taste awesome. The texture is super creamy and you really can’t taste the difference from ”normal” diary based ice cream. Flavors include chocolate (classic), chocolate hazelnut, pistachio, mint chocolate, cherry chocolate, & vanilla.

Try it, but be careful, you might want to eat the whole damn thing. xx

So the hot topic of Vitamin D… It’s oblviously a lot easier to get your daily dose if you live in a sunny climate, where you can expose your skin to 15-30 minutes of sunlight per day. But if you’re like me, living in a New York climate, it’s just not that easy to expose my legs, arms, and face to the glow above. I mean I could plop down a lawn chair on 5th Avenue mid December but think I’m going to opt for another option… Anyways getting back on topic…  If you live in cold countries or experience the chilly seasons, I suggest you eat a whole-food, plant-based, vitamin D supplement!

Why? Vitamin D helps your body regulate calcium and phosphorus – two minerals that are important in bone and tooth growth. The vitamin tells your body to either deposit or remove these minerals from your bones. Importante? Oh yes… You don’t want osteoporosis do ya? No thanks!

Love going to Eli’s Market near my apartment, they have a great organic selection. Why eat organic? First reason is that they’re free of neurotoxins, that can be damaging to the brain and nerve cells. Secondly, it’s real food with more nutrients, good for your body and the earth. Lastly, hello the toxins! Would you spray herbicides, pesticides, fungicides, and fertilizers in your mouth? No right? Then why is it ok to eat a conventional apple?

Love this chica! Kris Carr (if you haven’t heard of her already…) is a 30-something health guru with cancer, yet she has lived way past her doctor’s predictions. Why? Because she is using her food as medicine. She recently come out with this cook book – Crazy Sexy Kitchen – with a ton of yummy vegan recipes. Yep, it’s available in Swedish as well.

The average American spends $1,092 per year on coffee. That’s $90 per month!

How much do you spend? How important is coffee for you? What would you do with that money if you didn’t drink coffee?
