had such pleasure splashing joy across the internet as guest editor for Issue 14 of @activeculturesla’s Digest. this volume is a practice of loving gratitude, full of delicious recipes to inspire culinary mindfulness and meditation. like full full, from cucumber salad to vegan NoLa beignets to corn, pork & bean soup to plum jam and more 🍯 and the prose, so thoughtful and rich. poetry, immersive verses. a short plummy memoir. vignettes about the textures of love. guided sensory evolution. a literal donut space odyssey. 💫 stunning multimedia contributions from across the United States, the UK, Mexico and Jamaica come together amidst the richness of contentment and adoration. thank you to all of the artists involved, we made something beautiful together 🌹
