My Poor Tired Liver

Red, white, and blue fruit salad (recipe on ) tastes sweeter when you take action while enjoying it:

Over 1.2 million veterans rely on SNAP (aka food stamps) to feed their families. That’s roughly 8% of all U.S. veterans. Many are struggling with fixed incomes, disabilities from service, or unemployment—and about 1 in 5 veterans experience food insecurity.

Now Congress is voting on a Farm Bill that would slash SNAP benefits. Veterans could lose critical nutrition assistance they depend on.

Show your gratitude for our veterans and the sacrifices they make TODAY. Your action matters. Call the Senate switchboard NOW: (202) 224-3121 🇺🇸

Ask for your senators and say: “I urge you to vote NO on any Farm Bill that cuts SNAP benefits. Veterans have sacrificed for our country—they deserve our support.”

Why this matters: Cutting SNAP forces veterans into impossible choices—deciding between paying rent, buying medicine, or feeding their families. These are people who served us. Let’s serve them back. 🇺🇸

Every call counts. Call today before the Farm Bill gets voted on in the Senate. Thanks! Love y’all! Now go enjoy that fruit salad. 😚 🫐 🍓

Trivia date night! We love in Kingston Springs. Their salad is my fave (thanks !) and their pizza and cocktails are insane. Their Very Veggie with vegan cheese + whatever is on the seasonal cocktail menu = 10/10 recommend. The last cocktail I had involved gin, cucumber, and watermelon. 🍉 🍸 🍕

My husband and I had so much at our daughter’s school today, teaching her and her classmates about worms and composting their food scraps! 😍 We sent each kid home with a jar of red wigglers and brought a big bag of screened compost for her school. I hope the parents don’t hate me for sending them all home with worms. 🤣 🪱 ❤️

Food & Wine recently asked me for some tips about storing avocados and I was happy to contribute. Fun read with multiple great chefs weighing in.

A Californian avocado farmer and professional chefs want you to stop storing avocados in the fridge too early and to keep them protected from oxygen. They use these tools for longer-lasting storage.

The easiest (and least expensive) vegan chili of all time. 🙌 My favorite secret ingredient also plays a major role in the flavor profile… molasses! It may seem like a weird ingredient to add to chili, but it gives every bowl even more warmth, depth, and subtle sweetness that ties everything together. 🤩 You can get the recipe on BudgetBytes.com along with hundreds of other free vegan (and otherwise) recipes that won’t break the bank!
