“Why the fuck do I have goji berries?” I mean honestly… What possible purpose do I, a Russian-Canadian living in Ontario, have for goji berries in my kitchen (and in my life)? Is there a single recipe where regular raisins would not suffice? And it’s not like the dried up hard goji berries you can buy at a health store in Canada look or taste anything like actual goji berries.
Pursuit of LESS? When all we seem to be striving for is MORE? I started thinking about how pursuit of less could be implemented with nutrition, and eating in general. How would the essentialist eat? What would be the simple beautiful and essentialist way to eat? And so, I started working on simplifying my kitchen too. My pantry. My fridge. There were days when I used to have five kinds of nut butter in my pantry. And a couple of seed butters to boot. Cashew butter. Almond butter. Hazelnut butter. Cashew-almond butter. Pumpkin seed butter.
