It’s true really that life can change in an instant. You just never know when & where you might get struck. I was thinking about this the other day on one of my weekend runs. Breathing the air around me and feeling every part of my body move, I often get caught up in highly constructive & stream of consciousness thought, working my way through things I might never recall without the quiet time and the space to open up and let it flow (this is why I can’t run with my beloved music).

So I’ve definitely been holding out. All these years, right under my nose, there was this recipe. Yes, this recipe. Those of us veggie folks who grew up in these parts of the world know a thing or two about where to eat when visiting Victoria.
