Rebecca Hosting the Cooking Stage at The Wellness Show this Weekend!
I’m very excited to say that I’ll be at The Wellness Show February 3 & 4 at the Vancouver Convention Centre, which is this weekend. Now, you might be saying, “but Rebecca, you’ve been at The Wellness Show probably for 10 years, what’s changed?” And …

Let’s Make Less Waste
Last year, I watched the documentary Just Eat it. Jen and Grant are a local couple who decide to make a three-month commitment to not purchase groceries, but rather to scavenge every bit of food. It sounds weird, right? Who would take up dumpster diving …
