Hi Reader, This morning, I woke up to snow, and it doesn’t look like it will melt anytime soon! I’m definitely in the mood for heartier, cozier meals. I still love my salads, even in winter, but crisp green lettuces just aren’t really available here at this time of year. So I thought I would send you a little Winter Salad Recipe Bundle: five colourful, nourishing, vegan salads using produce that’s easier to find in winter.

Hi Reader, Do you ever catch yourself wondering if menopause means the best years of your life are over? In our youth-driven culture, it’s easy to believe menopause marks the beginning of decline. You might feel like your confidence and sense of attractiveness are slipping away — like your sparkle is fading and there’s nothing you can do about it.
