I know there are many women in this world who don’t have an inspiring or loving mother in their life. I’m not one of those people. I’m lucky enough to have a mom who I adore and who spreads so much love and joy and generosity to our whole family. I don’t take her for granted for one second. She also makes a killer homemade, grain-free granola! She says it’s based on one from @paleomagazine but all you need to know is that it’s scrumptious.
