Butterflies are my favorite. They symbolize resurrection, transformation, change, and hope. I'm a healthy-eating enthusiast and organic food encourager. You can make healthy food taste delicious! I love being eco-friendly and being a fitness junkie. My favorite activities are practicing yoga, meditating, writing, blogging, and creating recipes. 💕 I love you, Jesus.
