Cakes Over Dates & Conscious Self Love
This past weekend I attended a wonderful event put on by Planthropie. For those unfamiliar with the company, Planthropie is a all natural, raw, plant based food pop-up company. While I'm not plant based, it was a really eye opening experience since the main foods keeping me from being plant based are desserts and cheeses- which was what Planthropie featured at this event!
I was beyond pleasantly surprised at the food! The cakes were phenomenal! They were so sweet and fulfilling, something I wasn't expecting out of a product that didn't have sugar or dairy. The cheese, however took me by surprise the most! Cheese is obviously dairy, so having a cheese that wasn't made from dairy had me a little apprehensive about what it would taste like, but after a bite I was hooked to say the least! One of the types of cheese had chives which I typically don't enjoy, but that ended up being my favorite cheese! I also really liked putting my cheeses on strawberries, something I would've never done prior! All in all, the food blew me away and I now understand how so many people can go plant based and still enjoy the food they are eating!
There were also guest speakers at the event to talk about self love, what it means to them and how to implement it in your own life as well. These talks were so motivational and inspiring! It was nice to know that some of the things I feel everyday are legitimate and others have felt that way in the past. It was nice to hear that they have over time those obstacles and anyone can overcome those feelings as well! It was also nice to hear other ideas of how to implement self care and self love besides what people typically think of. In a way, this blog is my form of self care since I'm journaling my life experiences on things that I love to do!
Thank you to Rua, the founder of Planthropie for such a wonderful event!
