It’s really hundreds of times better than ready-made hummus in a jar with a bunch of preservatives. Buy a can of tahini and canned chickpeas and you’ll have homemade hummus anytime in 5 minutes. Of course, you can use not only canned, but also boiled chickpeas.

Happy Sunday everyone! I’ve had a really relaxing and low-key solo weekend. I watched Where The Crawdads Sing, spent lots of QT with the pups, got to the gym to lift on Friday and Saturday, had a massage, watched the UGA/Kentucky game and attended the loveliest chakra light and sound bath.

One key ambition I have is to learn to grow enough food to feed two people over the course of the summer, and hopefully into winter (through preserving, and growing winter hardy crops). This year, some crops have been more successful than others, but the...
