The audacity of waking up to a gut that's already been awake for 2 hours, plotting. 😭

Tag someone whose IBS is also a morning person. ☕🙃

One thing that struck me during my recent trip to northern Vietnam:

Soup is not seasonal.

In Vancouver, summer is always our slowest time of year (you may have noticed we press pause on farmers markets from mid-June - early Sept 😉). As soon as the weather gets warm, people stop thinking about bone broth, stews, and soups.

Meanwhile in Hanoi, where it was hot, humid, and sweaty from the moment we stepped outside, people were happily eating pho for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Not just pho either. Soup seemed to show up everywhere. Noodle soups, broths served alongside grilled meats, congee, clear soups, fish fin soup alongside the main fish dish.

It reminded me that in many food cultures, soup isn't "cold weather food."

It's simply food.

Maybe we've all been conditioned to think soup is only for rainy days and winter colds.

The Vietnamese would probably disagree 🍜

Have you ever eaten soup on a hot summer day?

Me VS. my own digestive system, daily. 😮‍💨

Spring Farmers Markets 🌱🥣

I’ve been slinging organic, gut-healing bone broth at farmers markets in Vancouver since 2018! I do far fewer now (thanks to analyzing the data and realizing I’m really not that popular in the summer months lol 😅), but I still love doing them.

Meeting my OG customers is always so heartwarming. Introducing new customers to my broths - and having to recount how long we’ve been in business and how many stores we’re in - forces me to take stock of the success we’ve had, even though it doesn’t feel like much to me on most days 🥹 Also hearing from regulars how "Shorba is the best" doesn't ever get old!

If you were at the West End Farmers Market last Saturday, you would’ve seen my sister Natalee working the booth for me — the only time I haven’t worked my own stall! She did it as a birthday present so I could dance to my favourite live DJ late into the previous night 😉💃

But I’m back this spring at:
