Cannabis News Round-up for September 27, 2019 – October 3, 2019

I am well aware that this "vegan" "fitness" "cannabis" blog has been really in the weeds lately. (Humor! Oh, you didn't know this was a comedy blog, too?) It hasn't been my intention to exclusively post news updates the past few weeks. There are several posts on the docket I had slated to post in…

Cannabis News and More: News Round-up for September 21, 2019 – September 26, 2019

This Friday marks the first round-up of the autumn season! If you've seen my posts from the last few weeks, you may know that I'm... not necessarily thrilled about that. However, I will reserve my fall blues for the post-Halloween season. I received a little festive pick-me-up earlier this week with the delivery of my…

Cannabis News: News Round-Up for September 1, 2019 – September 14, 2019

Do you have a cat who drives you bananas? Then maybe you know what it feels like to be try to meet an internal deadline in between chasing her off of the same counter every three minutes. Let me attempt to be as brief as possible (not my strongest suit) at explaining my lifestyle. The…

Crunches or Couchlock: 8 Exercises You Can Do While You Stream and Chill

As I flesh out the final edits of this post, aggressive wind and rain is rattling around my apartment like it was echoing in my own head. I live in Seattle, and as if the city finally figured out fall is on its way, rain and thunder has poured down on us. I struggle with…

Primetime Snack: Cannabis-Infused (or Not!) Vegan Popcorn Balls

Sometimes you develop a recipe idea from old ingredients you forgot were in the pantry. Last year, towards the end of winter, I found bags of Dandies Pumpkin Vegan Marshmallows in the clearance bin. Never one to turn down a sale, I bought several, gave a couple away, and promptly forgot about it until I…

Another week, another round-up. It's still before midnight on Sunday here in Seattle, so better late than never! This is my curated research on all the cannabis policy, health and wellness, fitness trend, animal rights, and vegan product news from the past week. I read the alerts and the newsletters so that you don't have…

Vegan MoFo Week 4: Coconut Coffee Freeze!

It is the final week of Vegan MoFo! Just like last Wednesday, this is another feature celebrating the Vegan Month of Food, and this week, the theme is travel. It was certainly difficult to nail down exactly what to explore with this recipe - should we travel to the Mediterranean with a delicious mezzo platter,…

Cannabis & More: News Round-Up for the Week of August 19, 2019 to August 24, 2019

In my previous job, I spent pretty much all day, every day of the work week "scoping" news, government webpages, legislative bill trackers, and City Council agendas in order to report out to my team the policy changes being made across the rapidly-evolving cannabis industry in the United States and, to some extent, internationally as…

Vegan MoFo Week 3: Spanakopita Sandwiches!

Once upon a time, I had a website before this one. To be fully honest, I had several websites. My parents even let me purchase a domain in middle school; it was called PlanetNica.net. This was before MySpace even, back when "blogs" were mostly just LiveJournal accounts on which you would divulge serious drama about…

how to make perfect, crispy tofu – every. single. time.

If there's any one food item that anyone expects me to be an expert in, it is most certainly the moist, white block of congealed soy protein known as tofu. Probably most people hear me say "vegan" and assume that this ubiquitous source of vegetarian protein is most of what I eat anyway. It's hard…
