Here’s a quandary more perplexing than love itself…how do you indulge the one you love while still taking care of his or her health? Instead of the usual approach of fatty, sugary deliciousness celebrate your sweetie by serving the best unprocessed, whole food available.
Choose food that nourishes and excites the taste buds all at once… and helps keep the one you love around for a long, long time.
