Today marks DAY 1 of VEGAN MONTH OF FOOD – A.K.A. Vegan Mofo! Hundreds of bloggers from all over the world participate by sharing 20 + posts in the month of September focused on food! Vegan food, tips, reviews and more! Learn more at veganmofo.com
​

Thankfully I signed up with only a couple hours to spare! This is my very first year!

Enjoying a vegan lifestyle has been an absolute magical process of transformation with unlimited combinations. I chose the theme of Vegan Alchemy as the word Alchemy means: “a seemingly magical process of transformation, creation, or combination.” Fitting!
Picture
Alchemy is also “the medieval forerunner of chemistry, based on the supposed transformation of matter. It was concerned particularly with attempts to convert base metals into gold or to find a universal elixir.” Along this magical path I found my way to making elixirs.  We are currently working on new colloidal solutions as well!
Picture
A vegan lifestyle has led to my own inner alchemy. During this month of food I encourage you to join me and share magical recipes with transformational ingredients that are created with love!
Picture
Here is an exciting overview of what you can expect from me! Each recipe will focus on some form of alchemy!
  • Week One: Guilt Free Sweets n' Treats
  • Week Two: Alchemical Cleanse & Detox (from all our sweets!) ;)
  • Week Three: World Fusion Vegan Cuisine
  • Week Four: Rawmazing Recipes! 100% Vegan & Raw!

To start the party right let’s celebrate with a WEEK of SWEETS! It’s my sister’s birthday today ~ Happy Birthday Janelle! She likes to celebrate for weeks and is well known for her delicious baking and even provides catering services! I want to honor her creativity and celebrate by focusing on healthy delicious sweets that are vegan and guilt-free!
