Love-Lies-Eating focuses on health, wellness, and food as medicine. At its core, this book is a love letter expressing gratitude for life and the ability to practice self-care all while making delicious, nutritious, and inexpensive meals, snacks, treats + drinks!
The book's title is inspired by the plant love-lies-bleeding; this flowering plant is part of the Amaranthaceae or Amaranth family, which includes beets, quinoa, and spinach.
"The Amaranth: A Sacred Food and
Ceremonial Substance of Indigenous Peoples.
The seeds of many varieties of Amaranth are a high-protein grain and part of a nutritious diet in many parts of the world. The Amaranth is an especially valued food and sacred substance in the indigenous cultures of Central and South America. It was wild-harvested for centuries before being domesticated around 4,000 BC in central Mexico and spreading to many other regions, including the Southwestern United States."
"The most notable changes involving Love Lies Bleeding were those of surrender, new-found inner peace, and spiritual transcendence."
