Hi there. We’ve been here for a while now and I thought it might be a good idea to explain who we are.
We’re Diane Mulholland and Lisa Johnson. (Lisa is typing this.)
We are twitter buddies who were surprised to discover there is no catch-all “healthy living” food site. At least not one that turned up through a pretty extensive Google search.
We believe …
We try to focus on upbeat articles that show what people are doing to live better and help the planet. We’re fans of Meatless Monday, Flexitarians and almost every other kind of ‘tarian. We love Slow Food, local, grass-fed and home cooked.
We don’t expect you to follow every last bit of information we give out but we hope you’ll take what resonates with you and incorporate it into your life.
We hope you’ll share your own stories with us. We love to hear your stories!
That’s about it. We hope you like our site.
Thanks,
Lisa & Diane

I love gazpacho and made it for the first time for a party. It was a huge hit. I wanted to share it with you here. Honestly, it was so fresh and just the right notes of vinegar and tabasco to balance the freshness of the ingredients. There’s a lot of chopping but it’s worth it. If you need to increase the recipe size, prepare it in batches. The amount below is enough for one very full blender.
Over the weekend I went to an event related to my work from a previous life. I met up with dozens of friends, associates and ex-colleagues, many of whom I hadn’t seen for almost a …

Penny pinching is second nature as the recession wears on. We’ve grown accustomed to cooking at home, even to the point of really enjoying it. I try to buy organic whenever I can; produce, meats and dairy. But sometimes my budget is tight or I just can’t find enough organic to make a week worth’s of meals.

Summer’s here, school’s out for most people, and it’s possible that your house is already echoing with the dulcet tones of “Mummy, I’m hungry!” Snacks don’t have to be bad for you of course, but …
