It’s finally Thursday so let’s take a sweep through the last week on the blog. We made some chocolate buttercream cookies, need we say more? And we have new articles from some of your favorite guest writers. This and much more can be found below!

Dag Kättström has written an article about recovery. Some of us have been hit pretty hard these last few weeks and it can take a long time to recover from difficult events.

A few weeks ago, we were desperately craving chocolate. Our brains, who usually think of green smoothie and turmeric, suddenly started thinking about things like cookies and buttercream. One theory could be that we simply just craved chocolate. Another that we longed for peace and quiet. In a troubled world, we needed to bake something from our childhood that reminded us of security. Chocolate buttercream cookies, only we’ve made them à la Food Pharmacy. You can find the recipe here.
