Is CBD Right for You?

Exercise and Cannabis
We all know the stereotypes about cannabis users, right? We’re supposedly lazy couch potatoes who don’t do much but eat Taco Bell and play video games, or at least that’s what they say.

Delicious New Truffles Are Here!
Truffles have a long and storied history as one of the world’s most decadent (read: expensive) foods, and as such, they’re sometimes referred to as “the diamond of the kitchen.” Of course, that term refers to the subterranean fungus that trained hogs dig for (sounds yummy, right?), the ones that sell for around $100 an […]
