Tierra… you are phenomenal! I have to shower you with flowers because I have learned so much from you in the past 10+ years of our friendship. Not only have I been able to watch you grow life and bring into the world two of the most beautiful little girls. I have watched you embody the definition of resilience. However, in your version of the definition there is so much grace and beauty intertwined within the roots and fibers of the word. You amaze me, because you have accomplished so much and impacted so many people simply by being yourself.
You certainly know how to throw a fun party. From one party girl to the next…. it’s honestly one of your many gifts and I’m in awe!! You dream it… you theme it… you make it happen. I always love hearing your ideas of what you’ll work on next. There are not that many people who can pivot the way that you do. And somehow… everything you touch just blooms and grows. So let me just say what needs to be said….
YOU HAVE A GREEN THUMB! You grow your own veggies and fruits and I still can’t believe how cool that is. Your brand Hungry AF Vegan is so you! I have tasted so many of your vegan dishes and they are flipping good!! Don't get me started on that lasagna or the chili. (Was the chili vegan??? if so…. HOW!?!?!) Yes, I’m your #1 vegan hater at times. I still don’t understand why they give meat inspired names to plant based dishes. Like, can’t they just create new words? Those young kids are always making up new things… why can’t vegans!?! Okay let me get back onto topic. Your cookbooks are the best. And yes, I’m going to link that right here so people can experience it as well. Hungry AF Vegan Cookbook
I want to thank you for being an original. Your energy is unique and I know nothing but greatness will continue to pour into your life. Any obstacles you’ve experienced were only stepping stones to get you closer to the sky. And you know what they say… the sky is the limit. But we both know there is so much more beyond just that. Thank you for loving holidays and being the reason why this past Christmas felt so magical for me. All that content… it was truly a festive season with your cheer!!! Thank you for trusting in me to capture the memories of you and the girls over the years. Thank you for moving closer to me… so story time can last longer and we can laugh and cry at the wildness life tosses our way. You are truly a gem… and I want you to know you’re talented, authentic and beautiful from the inside out!
Your Flowers…. XOXO
