We remember a moment when the senses are engaged. Whether the event is a small intimate gathering at a restaurant, bookstore, home kitchen, or on a large stage, I work to bring in the sense of taste and smell whenever possible. EATING LESS WATER is better for you + the planet, and it tastes delicious!
I hope to eat less water with you soon!
There is power in the collective,
Florencia
