Sarah says, "Anna Jones has written two cookbooks that I use on a weekly basis. Her recipes are all vegetarian and while sometimes a bit complicated (read a lot of ingredients) they are also so surprisingly delicious. She taught me about cashew cream for which I will be eternally grateful."

Sarah says, "I am obsessed with dying fabrics using natural dyes. In fact, for Earth Day we were going to do an up-cycling clothing event where we used indigo dye (don't worry, we will do it in the fall). This account provides great resources about how to use natural materials to dye, a great way of breathing new life into old clothes."
