Fabulous Things I’m Loving This Week

I had a wonderful week! It was sunny here in NYC, but not too humid, so it was perfect for venturing outside for dinner and fro yo. Here my favorite finds from this week.

The Color Coral

Coral is a pinkish orange color. Interesting fact: the first recorded use of coral as a color name in English was in 1513. I’m really digging this color lately for fashion and home decor.

Pomegranate Raspberry Sorbet From 16 Handles

16 Handles is a NYC frozen yogurt store that always offers one or two dairy-free flavors. This week, they had the Pomegranate Raspberry Sorbet one. So fruity, sweet and refreshing.

Pacifica Soy Candles

Pacifica is a natural, cruelty-free beauty company that sells makeup, skincare, fragrances, and home items like incense. I recently purchased three soy candles during their soy candles sale. I love them! The ones I ordered have fruity scents: Hawaiian Ruby Guava, Tuscan Blood Orange, and Brazillian Mango Grapefruit.

The Vegan Food Pyramid

Many people ask me how I get enough protein, iron, etc without meat and dairy. They think you have to have meat and milk to survive, but you don’t. You just have to re-think the food pyramid and eat the right combination of plants to help your body thrive!

Masala Dosas From Dosai

I attended a press tasting this week at vegetarian Indian restaurant Dosai in Manhattan. It has been open for about four months and specializes in dosas and Southern Indian cuisine. I especially loved the Masala Dosa and the Vatha Kozhambhu, which contains okra and black chickpeas in a tamarind-based curry sauce. I am definitely going back again!
