I am between trips right now. I went to an amazing island in the Philippines called Siargao last weekend, I’ve been home for four days and now I am off to Bali for a girls weekend getaway! The perks of living in Southeast Asia 🙂 Anyway while I was home I wanted to be able […]

Last week I went to a vegan wine party and most people’s reaction was “Isn’t all wine vegan?” Truth bomb for you: no, it isn’t (actually neither is most sugar, for a similar reason) but lets stick to wine for tonight, we can save sugar for another time. Why is wine not vegan? Most wine, […]

Why do we eat more than we think? What is mindless eating? Many of the clients I work with already know WHAT to eat.

I know we are not at the beginning of wedding season anymore but I wrote these tips awhile ago for a good friend and amazing wedding photographer Felicia Schumacher*. I just got engaged and although my wedding is still a long way off (actually we don’t even have a date yet!) I love these tips […]

This pairing screams summer! Watermelon, fresh herbs, and lemon, it’s refreshing, light and healthy. I used Crows gin, it is the first gin distillery in the Philippines and it is delicious. They use 23 botanicals inspired by filipino herbs and citrus and you can tell because it is bursting with flavor. I wanted to keep […]
