S1E9: Josh – A Dairy-Free Newbie
Season 1 of Dairy-Free State is Coming to a Close This is going to be a post where I’m going to be a little hard on myself, but also honest with all of you. The pandemic has been quite the trip for me, as for many others. I feel fortunate that I’ve been busier than […]

Good Reads: A New Book!
Finally, a new installment of Good Reads, and a new book to talk about. While I loved reading In Defense of Food, I was definitely ready for something less information-dense. What I was craving next was a singular story.
DietBet: Smoothies, Yay or Nay?
It is officially the start of week 2 of my DietBet, and I’m making great progress. According to my last unofficial weigh-in, I’m 26% to my goal weight, which is where I should be. I’ve made some great recipes this week, been able to work out quite a bit, and have found that it’s true […]
