Spring Clean Your Life

Thank goodness it’s spring! The weather might be mild all year round where I live, but I’m so ready for the fresh start that spring always brings. How ‘bout you?

Vegan Irish Soda Bread

St. Patrick’s Day is coming up, and I had a craving for some warm Irish soda bread. I’m not Irish, but in addition to making up my own holidays, I also steal holidays from others. Mwa ha ha ha ha ha!!! In my defense, Chris is Irish and I think my dog, Skyla, might be…
