Vegans—you don't need to feel left out when your friends are enjoying the best summer foods! Whether you're vegan or you're having one over for a summer get-together, these ideas will have you re-thinking the whole notion that vegan food is bland and difficult to put together.

Winter Skincare for Aging Skin
Vegan. Made in Canada. Two reasons why I am loving the Rocia products I've been sent to help my skin stay hydrated during the dry winter months. Winter skincare for aging skin is no joke—I've seen countless high-priced skincare products targeted towards women concerned with how best to take care of their aging skin. Natural skincare for aging skin When I see ads for anti-aging skincare, I often see depictions of women (I guess men don't worry about wrinkles and fine lines as much as women?) ...

Vegan Pumpkin Waffles
You know how it is: you make a recipe using pumpkin puree and you're left with half a can of it, not sure what to make next. That's kind of how this recipe for vegan pumpkin waffles came about.

Vegan Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dip
In an effort to savour memories of various times of the year, I've taken to embracing seasonal fruits and vegetables by creating season-centric meals. This Vegan Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dip is sure to be a fall-favourite. Growing up in Houston, Texas, it was sometimes hard to tell what season it was based on the weather. That couldn't be further from the truth in Calgary, Alberta - where my family moved to when I was 12. Being surrounded by new-to-me family meant a lot of get-togethers and ...
