PGM 33 | Sasha Swerdloff of Tending the Table<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n

One of the things I love best about the Pure Green podcast is that so often if just feels like a conversation between friends. This episode is no exception. I’m talking with Sasha Swerdloff, whose kind, calm demeanor invites you to settle in from the moment you start listening. Sasha is a blogger, writer, cook, recipe developer and yogi, and she pens a beautiful, heart-felt blog called Tending the Table. It’s a regular favourite of mine, and I cook from her recipes regularly (especially her to-die-for avocado chocolate pudding, it’s a staple at our house since she introduced me to it!). The days are getting a little cooler, so cue up the episode, grab a hot cup of tea and comfy seat, and settle in. Thanks for listening!<\/p>\n
