Standing In Loneliness

Standing In Loneliness

I came to LA seeking loneliness and I found it. In my loneliness, I have always found myself. It makes me wonder if we don't keep our lives so busy and so filled with people just so that we can avoid this very thing: to spend time with one's self. 
 
I lead a rich life, filled with people whose needs often trump my own. It is difficult to impossible to discover one's own self and identify one's own needs in a cacophony of voices, opinions and requests. (Here I mostly refer to my lovely children.)

Philosophical Musings From a Mylk Maid

Philosophical Musings From a Mylk Maid

I'm beautiful was a big hit last weekend at our markets and in the shop with super beautiful aMYLK lattes. They were pink perfection. We plan to have those again this weekend as well as a number of valentine themed healthy treats at the shop.  You won't want to miss this special event day at aMYLK!

Creating Beautiful Abundance

Creating Beautiful Abundance

In our busy, social media crazed world, we can easily fall into the habit of comparison and self-criticism. It is so easy to lose sight of the importance of offering ourselves positive encouragement like telling ourselves that we are beautiful and special and capable of attracting abundance.

My Buckwheat Pancake Recipe Featuring aMYLK!

My Buckwheat Pancake Recipe Featuring aMYLK!

I'm popping up at a new market this weekend! You'll find us Saturday at Portland Farmers Market at PSU, Beaverton Farmers Market, Hollywood Farmers Market, and Portland Farmers at King Elementary on Sunday.
 
I'm abundant is the new mylk this month!  It's a fall favorite and probably my superest of Super aMYLKs. It's got turmeric, ashwagandha, pea protein, 24 k gold flakes, camu camu berry, lucuma fruit, and tocotrienols. Tocotrienols are packed with vitamin E. If you haven't tried it, don't let the gold or the yellow throw you off. It's truly delicious. ...


Why I Don't Make Oat Milk

Why I Don't Make Oat Milk

Early last week I was at Costco picking up some basics and I stumbled upon Califia Farm's Pumpkin Spice Oat Milk beverage. I got a little mad when I read the nutrition facts panel and filmed a quick video, which I posted to Instagram. 

Everyone always asks me why I don't make oat milk. I've been reluctant to write about it and rain on everyone's parade because oat milk seems like such a good choice for both human health and for the environment, but in my opinion, it's not. Keep in mind, I'm not a nutritionist, an MD or a...
