Weekend Retreat: Enjoy Cooking, Enjoy Eating


We are offering a weekend of mindful cooking, introducing you once again to some of our favorite vegan recipes. Mindful cooking brings joyful eating leading to happy living! As our teacher has said, cooking good food is one way to bring happiness to our loved ones.
