So this week I had an entirely different blog post planned reflecting on Veganuary. I have a lot to say on the topic but for the life of me I just haven’t been able to formulate coherent sentences about it every morning I sat down to write this week. This morning I had such a … Continue reading Pandemic Fatigue
21 for 2021
Now being halfway through January, this is probably around the time that people start ditching whatever resolutions they’ve made for themselves.

Let’s Call This a Newsletter
In the last month I have gone to sit down to sit down and write new blog posts at least 10 times and for one reason or another it just hasn't happened.
