She is a brilliant painter, weaver, photographer, musician, playwright, videographer and so much more.  Luca J. Davis is a writer, web designer and long distance hiker. You will notice their review is in two parts, because it was  originally sent to me as a video text, which you can see on our instagram page, but  after hearing just the names of BEAUTIFUL tahini drink & breakfast items from Houlden’s Rise Above, I demanded more details. Which Luca sent. Via memo.  Morgan is a baker and seed lover, and Torrence is a cat lover who was once my  very excellent roommate.  Alec Longstreth is an award winning cartoonist.
