"This work is unlike any other, in its range of rich, conjuring imagery and its dexterity, its smart voice. Carroll-Hackett doesn’t spare us—but doesn’t save us—she draws a blueprint of power and class with her unflinching pivot: matter-of-fact and tender." —Jan Beatty

Weekly Plant-Based Love <3

For various health reasons (grrr cholesterol!),  I’m supposed to get at least a cup of oatmeal every day.  I like oatmeal, but cannot eat it every day. I am too easily food bored to do that 🙂 And because my diet is primarily plant-based, I’ve found this to be the easiest answer: Homemade Oat Milk!

Just some quick pics of this weekend’s Oat Milk Makin 🙂
