Just like that, it’s March. Sometimes I feel like it’s true that time seriously flies, like in the summertime, but it seems like the dark and often dreary winter months just creep by. So I am absolutely thrilled that March is here, and that spring weather is on the way! There’s nothing prettier than trees and flowers starting to bloom, especially after a particularly long and freezing cold winter.
There’s also nothing prettier than a pan of vegan banana chocolate chip doughnuts waiting to be devoured on a Saturday morning, so let’s chat about that situation!
