Thursday Love List: Watch it

Busy with back-to-school prep (not so fun), and admittedly also budding romance (super fun) so this'll be quick, but I couldn't resist sharing these two videos with you. You're sure to love one of them, or both, even if they're not food-related.

One Moment Meditation


One World Birth (introducing their new website)


PS. Come see me at the Toronto Veg Food Fair next Friday! Click here for deets.

"Domestic affair... do you think it's a funny title?" I asked a friend.
"Funny ha-ha?" she responded, "well, no not really."
"But 'domestic affair', it's like what's going on in the nation, but it's also me, being drawn to all these domestic tasks - knitting, cooking, caring for small children..." I tried to explain.
"I like that it has the word affair in it," she concluded.
