sustenance


We are still in our season of "trying times" here, and as such I've found myself lacking in culinary creativity. Thankfully, however, this narrow focus on a problem beyond myself does not necessitate a compromise of vegan standards. No, I cannot come up with something creative to eat right now, but that doesn't mean I reach for a can of Spaghettios. It means I look around the pantry and see a can of beans, and an avocado, and in the fridge a package of arugula that still happens to look pretty good. So that's what I eat, drizzled with my Blood Orange Olive Oil and a grind of fresh pepper. So I guess the vegan lifestyle is the right one for me. It's the core of who I am. It's the most effortless choice. In this case boring? Maybe. Good? Yes.
