To say I had a bad month eating out would be an understatement. As a matter of fact, I actually can’t account for most of the things I ate during April, but then I’m not sure I want to either. Sigh. It was a busy month. I opened my boutique, MendRT, vegan retail therapy. If […]

Hi my name is Kat and I’m a cook book-aholic. I admit it. Raise your hand if you fall into this group. Yes, I see you…there, and over there. The addiction is so strong, my heavy weighted bookshelves are begging for relief. Cook books even overflow to the laundry room, where they’re stacked high upon […]

This past weekend, I helped wrap up the Texas Vegan Tour by hosting an open house and fundraiser.

February brought some incredible warm weather and amazing sunsets, both in Arkansas and Texas. Due to that, I spent a huge chunk of the month at my mountain home. This is a place that […]

Continue ReadingIt’s been a while, it’s been a long while, but I’m back and ready to offer new cooking classes and workshops. I will be alternating between cooking classes and workshops each month, unless feedback demands differently. Starting in March, I’m offering a plant-based detox workshop. Don’t fret, there’s more here than green juice. I’m going […]
Continue ReadingQUINTESSENTIAL LEGGINGS
I have a confession, I’ve never been a fan of leggings. There are several reason why, mostly due to the fact leggings (personal opinion inserted here) look best on girls with long skinny legs.
