"You'll never go anywhere if you go about what-iffing like that" -Roald Dahl
Today is a typical Pacific Northwest rainy day, so I wanted to share my PNW bars with you. I called these PNW bars because of the abundance of raspberries in the summer here. Super thankful my favourite fruit is grown right in my home area.
I'm thinking of doing a raw vegan day once a week to see how I feel only eating raw foods... thank goodness I'll still be able to eat these guys. These were one of the first raw vegan desserts I have ever made and turned out so delicious.
Oh also, I wanted to tell you guys I am spending Christmas on a beautiful island in BC called Hornby island, with my husbands family. I can't wait to take tons of pictures and do some baking with my sister-in-laws and mother-in-law who are all amazing in the kitchen!
