Chúc mừng năm mới! 🌙❤️ Happy Lunar New year to everyone celebrating! 🧧 Wishing you all the health, longevity, & positive energy for 2020! Throwing it back with this recipe for lemon lavender candied ginger (mứt gừng)—recipe in bio if you want to experiment with a last minute fusion treat for the occasion! ✨☺️ . . So thankful to be spending the day with my family in Oklahoma—hope you all have a beautiful weekend!! ☺️🙏🏼

What if you treated everyday like it was your birthday? Hear me out. ✨ . . Celebrate your accomplishments, big/small, be grateful for all the good (even the bad, lessons) that's happening in your life, here & now. Seriously, imagine how much our days would improve if we opened to the possibility of something wonderful happening everyday! This doesn't mean expecting every day to be big/amazing (bad days are ok)—this means finding ways to be grateful & open to receiving joy in all the little things (making room for big joys too)! Mindfulness is a practice. Gratitude & mindfulness are gamechangers. I've decided that this is The Mood for 2020. Hope you find ways to celebrate yourself & those around you, today & always! . . @plantbasedhacker & I talked about this the other night because I literally keep having the best days. All I did for my actual bday last week was workout, make a giant salad, & do laundry but it was such an amazing day, bc I got to vibe w/friends like Isaac, @mikelimongelli & @joyceknee, so thankful to have such a great support system after moving to a new city! 🙏🏼 . . My transition to ATX has (still) been draining & emotional, adulting is not my fave, haha, but I'm thankful! Thankful for a working body to challenge myself daily @trufusionsouth_austin—I surprise myself every time, tysm #trutribeatx! Thankful to work in an encouraging environment @tbgpartners—learning everyday, working on a variety of projects that challenge me to examine our environment on multiple scales! 🌱🌳🌏 Thankful for friends whose love travels great distances; y'all make sure I never feel too far. Always so thankful for my fam, who came to see me last weekend—we finally made a family meal in my new place & it was wonderful, even tho I don't have furniture (or more than one pair of chopsticks) yet! Finally, thank you to each one of you, not just for the sweet bday wishes last week, but for all your feedback and Q's on this platform, this blog gives me the opportunity to explore my creativity for my biggest passion: being an encouraging resource for others about the vegan lifestyle. For the planet, for the animals, thank you 🥰 . . 📸: @jackietien (best IG gf)!

Today’s #MCM: anyone who works @plow_burger, basically 🤣🤤👀🌮🥞 . . Missing my family & this Sunday brunch we enjoyed yesterday @plow_burger! Can’t stop thinking about it!! 🙌🏼😭😍 . . Their brunch special this weekend was the PACO: a breakfast taco in a giant pancake instead of a tortilla, featuring: scrambled @justforall eggs, hashbrowns, diced @allvegetarianinc bacon, melted @followyourheart cheddar, & a drizzle of maple syrup! My fam was so impressed! I'm already dreaming of the next time I can experience these fluffy AF, buttery, rich pancakes—literally the best pancakes I've ever had. 🤤 . . Also, this was my third time at a @plantsleadourway establishment in 3 days straight (my family’s 2nd time in 2 days). 🤣 Idk when it happened but I've become a PLOW hype girl outside of my day job...not mad about it!💃🏻 I’ll probably be back @plowbao tomorrow for this week’s bao taco special! 🤣

“You ask why I love you. For this: You are a minute of quiet in a loud shouting world.” ― Gabriel Gadfly . . Hope you get to carve out some quiet moments to be with yourself in the midst of all the chaos around us lately. I was in a minor car accident this morning & it really had me feeling shaken and emotional, especially because I've never been in an accident by myself before! Very grateful to be safe and supported by friends and family who never make me feel alone! . . I did the handlettering for this quote while on a meditation retreat with my mom and sister in France. I miss doing things like this! 🌊

It’s Friday, time to treat yourself to all the vegan nachos 😍 My coworker got me a gift card to @countercultureaustin for Secret Santa, and I can’t wait to indulge!! ✨ I love Counter Culture bc it’s a perfect balance of comfort & healthy dishes, like these loaded jackfruit nachos! Wishing y’all a balanced weekend, hopefully it includes nachos 🤗

In 2020, we are sipping good quality oat milk matcha lattes, minding our own business, making moves, committed to loving ourselves, glowing & THRIVING ✨🍵 . . Wishing y’all the very best for 2020!! This year has been a lot in terms of milestones for me (Finished my Master’s! Got a job! Moved to a new city!) but tbh I’m still struggling to get my life together, whatever that means—I’m still figuring it out 🤣 But my passions remain clear, and I’m thankful to be where I am in this life. Thankful for the nourishing relationships I have cultivated, and thankful for y’all!!! I am always so encouraged and inspired by all of you doing your best to make this planet a better place. 😭 Here’s to making more space for yourself & the things that light you up! . . 📷: @maibananna

Austin, I am back & ready for more of @plowbao's spicy Sichuan chili oil wontons! 👀🔥 ILYSM, @joyceknee😍 . . Hope your Monday is warm & cozy, and maybe a little spicy! ☺️🌶🥟

This holiday season, I am so thankful for the love & care of my fam ✨ especially my sis @maibananna, who has been working overtime taking care of my sickly self & her bf @fjjimenez23! I’ve been really mentally/socially exhausted & my body finally caught up to me & forced me to take a break. 😔 Regardless, I have had a brilliant holiday break and I hope you did too!! If you’re sick like me, please get well soon! 🌿 . . Hope y’all had a beautiful holiday with your loved ones, whatever you may celebrate, there is always room for more warmth & light in this world! 💛 . . Thank y’all for following this little blog, even though I’ve been so overwhelmed with life that it’s been hard to create for you lately. I always want my posts to come from a place of fresh creativity and inspiration. I’ve been too drained. In the hectic transition between grad school to the professional world, I know I haven't been very good at prioritizing my mental space for creating. Thank y’all for the patience, support, and just genuine kindness!!! I want to hug all of you. 🥺 Working on something exciting with a dear friend of mine (hint:🐐), stay tuned. 🌿✨ . . Btw, you probably already guessed, this is homemade vegan PHỞ! With extra ginger in the broth + mushrooms + yuba (Anna made it all oil free for my upset stomach)! And with glass noodles bc my sister ran out of rice noodles. But the broth is always the Most Important—this was amazing. Thanks @maibananna! 😭🙏🏼

Brunchos (n): nachos w/brunch sides, most notably in this case, tofu scramble (recipe for tofu scramble is in the archives on plantcrush.co!) Yeah, you’re gonna wanna tap to save this post for your next brunch gathering 😍☀️. . . These brunchos were made with @happeavegans' #ksogood—my family is OBSESSED. ✨If you haven't had this liquid gold yet, you are missing out! @vegan_mamasan is always my #WCW, missing her so much! Once the holiday craze is over, I am def planning a weekend trip to see her & @vegan_papasan in San Antonio!😭😍 . . The toppings: tofu scramble + black beans + pico de Gallo + pickled red onions + avocado salsa + papas a la Mexicana! 🤤 These nachos were basically a combo of a bunch of breakfast taco leftovers we had on hand! Very easy to make, you just need some vegan queso (store bought or homemade, up to you)—@happeavegans is my family’s fave to indulge in bc it’s made with all the love (also the taste & texture are LEGIT)!!😍
