Figured It was about time I learn how to pickle things! 4 leftover jalapeños + 1 old Trader Joe’s tahini jar + obligatory millennial greenery = 👌

Been writing and researching about food waste all day, so I was inspired to make some chips from a couple beets that were starting to go soft. Tossed in oil and salt, and about to pop them in the oven and hope for the best!

Homemade roasted tomatillo salsa is even better the second day! First time properly making salsa and gotta say, no complaints!
.
Blistered the tomatillos in the oven first and then blended with healthy amounts of garlic, jalapeño, cilantro, lime, and a dash of cumin. Salt and pepper to taste, if any. Then added diced local tomatoes for added texture. Yum!

“It can be dizzying to think about all of the different ways that what we eat contributes to climate challenges,” Sheril Kirshenbaum, host of “Our Table,” a monthly discussion at Michigan State University about the future of food, told me.
“There’s so much more to consider than the item itself,” she said ― such as the clearing of land, plowing the soil, fertilizer and runoff, water and energy use that go into producing the food, its transportation and refrigeration, packaging, “and on and on.”
To help navigate the climate effects of our supermarket trips, HuffPost turned to the experts. I spoke to climate scientists, those who have dedicated their time to tackling the science and studying solutions to the climate crisis, to understand how they think through these decisions ― and what matters to them when grocery shopping.

Decided to try my hand at growing veggies from seeds. Made them little starter pots out of an old egg carton and used a trusty wine opener to make some drain holes. Fingers crossed for some seedlings 🌱

It’s a gloomy, misty day here in D.C. but here are some of my favourite spring blossoms popping up in my neighbourhood. May it bring a little brightness to all those social distancing and stuck indoors 🌼
