Via Pinterest ♥ I love stir fries – they are so quick, easy and awesome – but was getting a little bored of my standard issue sauce, which is tasty but was lacking some kind of stir fry X factor.

Balsamic Brown Rice Salad
Siouxsie Sioux for Dazed and Confused (1999) via Cats with Famous People Earlier this week I was lucky enough to spend three days hanging out with some of my favourite people at an awesome little bach in the sunshine and slow pace of the Queen Charlotte Sounds.

Wholegrains 101: The Rice Smackdown
Diva by Christiane Vleugels Before I started my vegan foods adventure, I was super ignorant about the jaw-dropping diversity that exists in the plant-based food world.

How To Not Spend A Fortune On Dairy-Free Milk (or: Adventures In DIY Rice Milk)
Batgirl by Bill Carman The $4.50/litre monopoly that Vitasoy has on rice milk around these parts has become superannoying since I started cooking every day.
