A treat for you
And a little gratitude...This week, I just want to say thank you. Thank you for showing up to class, for rolling out your mat even when life feels full, and for flowing with me when I have to shift the schedule (reminder: no class next week!). Your flexibility, in every sense of the word, means the world to me. And since gratitude always pairs well with something sweet, I wanted to share a treat that’s been on my mind for weeks now. My friend Chef Sally (you know her, you love her) and I made a batch of homemade Snickers bars a while back, and they were dangerously good. Let’s just say they didn’t last long enough to share.... unless “sharing with myself” counts. They’re chewy, peanuty, caramel-y, and just happen to be vegan. A little bit of salty-sweet heaven. Perfect for an afternoon pick-me-up or a post-yoga indulgence. Click the button below for the recipe we followed.
Note: we used honey roasted peanuts and almond milk. And obviously, we opted for the chocolate drizzle over the full dunk. It will be great no matter what you do. Let me know if you try it! Thank you again for being part of this little yoga community. Even on the quiet weeks, your presence means more than you know. With love, Monica |
Hi, I’m a creator
The Pop Heard ‘Round the Parking Lot This past weekend, I stepped off a curb leaving dinner with my parents and rolled my ankle. I actually heard it pop. The moment took me right back to being 15 years old at a basketball game, sitting on the bench with a swollen, purple ankle that took weeks to heal. So needless to say, I was worried. Luckily, my care team (aka Mom and Dad) jumped into action with ice, compression, and the good old RICE rule. The next day was rough, but after just 24 hours I...

It's nearly time To snack and chat with Winnie’s Book Club! Our official meeting is coming up next Thursday, October 9, from 12 to 2 pm! We’ve been diving into In the Woods by Tana French, and I can’t wait to hear everyone’s thoughts. This month we will gather at one of our members’ homes, located in the neighborhood just behind the Fischer Market and QT. As always, we like to emphasize the snack part of the "snack & chat".
