"Healthier version of the ginger cookie. I find these a bit dry, but I'm willing to trade a little dryness for a whole heap of unnecessary calories. You can tweak it where you like."

Self-confessed wellness fanatic, I believe it's extremely important to be good to your mind & body.
In terms of eating habits, this translates to choosing foods that strengthen & nurture you from the inside out!
I'm still a baby when it comes to nutrition & fitness however, only really becoming aware of what I ate in the last 1 1/2 years.
I have always been active, but once high school finished & university started, regular sport took a back seat to the pub/club life! However, after a few too many late nights, experiencing bad skin for the first time, & feeling constantly lethargic, I decided enough was enough.
As soon as I became active again & ate nutritious meals, my mood lifted, my skin cleared & now I have so so SO much more energy.
