Seven Easy & Ethical Christmas Recipes

Christmas is upon us again! And if your shopping isn’t finished, wrap it up as quickly as possible, and let’s move to everyone’s favorite: the food. Making delicious food is arguably the best part of the holiday and there is no reason you need to sacrifice your morals to make something delicious and memorable. And if you’re going for something a little outside the box? Don’t tell your family and friends. Just let them try it and THEN spill the beans once they’ve said how delicious it is. Your carnivore uncle Carl isn’t going to love your dish if you immediately label it “vegan” or “ethical” so let him take a bite or two, profess his love, and then let him know your secret. Tricky, huh? But you just created a new fan of ethical eating!

News of the Syrian Refugee Crisis seems to surround us these days. Misinformation is spreading. Opinions are shouted out from every corner. Political opinions are swirling all around  - the left and the right are battling it out. And still the crisis persists. Chemical weapons. Explosions. Hungry families. Overturned boats. Dead children on beaches. Homes destroyed. Refugee camps overflowing. Evacuee buses bombed.  It seems never ending.
​
What got us here? Why is the situation so dire right now to make a mother choose between staying in their home in Syria and taking her children on a potentially deadly boat ride to escape? The simple answer is that the potentially lethal boat is safer than staying in Syria. ​
