I always try so hard to avoid bandwagons, but I usually seem to end up on them anyways. Exhibit A: remember when I lamented about the use of medjool dates in vegan desserts in this post? Well here I am now, offering a recipe with dates as a main ingredient. HOWEVER, in my defense, something…

When I was a senior in college, I used to work out at least once or twice every day. Usually in the morning before class I would go swimming (for which I would usually drag one of my friends along… hey Jon), then in the evenings I would do my cardio + lift. Looking back now,…
