don't let the "whole-grain, gluten-free, and vegan" part scare you away. I know the immediate reaction is an automatic "ew, gross."

As Thanksgiving rolled around this year, I found myself at a loss on the dessert front, which is normally my creative arena. I love the flavors of the holiday season, but I crave novelty. Thankfully, I found inspiration in this chocolate cranberry pecan tart, but being stumped made me think. When does tradition lose its comfort and become boring and/or monotonous?
A little earthy, a little sweet, these bright green vegan matcha peppermint cookies with dark chocolate and flaky sea salt are a festive addition to your holiday baking.
Don't forget to give yourself something special this season. Who else is diving into Dr. Brené Brown's latest book, Atlas of the Heart?
Wrap yourself in a cozy sweater, grab a good book, pour a large mug of coffee, enjoy a whole-grain pumpkin scone, and the perfect morning.
