Chai Tea Tres Leches 1.5
Posted by Tiffany Griffin
One of my mentors from graduate school once said to me, “every moment is a teaching moment.” Of his many words of wisdom, that statement is one of my favorites. It eliminates the need for regret and allows every ‘mistake’ or ‘mishap’ to be a source of growth. Hence, this

Tangelo Tofu

I don’t if it’s the upcoming spring equinox or if it’s daylight savings time or something funky happening planetarily, but I’m off. And I’m not the only one. Half of the people I’ve talked to in the past few days are feeling off, and have no clear attributions for why

When I volunteer at SEEDS, there is never a shortage of witty and hilarious soundbites. This last time, a certain youth we’ll call ‘Quincy’ declared, “this is like the fanciest lunch we’ve ever had.” I let the youth (and adult coordinators) scrape the last of the catupiry and frango

Colorful Couscous
Posted by Tiffany GriffinIn almost every quote I’ve ever encountered about the feeling of pain, the word ‘love’ has been embedded somewhere in the prose.

Posted by DaraIn my never ending quest for spiritual growth, I’ve come across the same advice over and over and over again lately–think like a child. Do not taint your ambitions with the voices of skeptics. Do not live other peoples’ dreams. Do not fear the unknown, or the creative, or the
