When we have overnight guests coming, I like to make a batch of healthy snack bars before they arrive...

It can be difficult to eat healthy while traveling, so healthy and homemade snacks are especially nourishing. These no-cook snack bars are filled with seeds, nuts and dried fruit. I've included prunes, because let's be real: They are helpful to consume on the first couple of days of a trip. These bars are also my go-to when heading out of town myself. On really busy days, I sometimes will grab a bar for breakfast because they're that nutritious!

Head here to visit our Modern Heirlooms web shop, where I've thoughtfully co-created ritual objects with my favorite artisans (in limited runs) to help you elevate your sacred rituals. 

I truly believe that cuisine is the most accessible gateway into learning more about our rich heritages. In addition to food, there are so many ways to celebrate, honor, and even reclaim, our time-honored traditions. I believe ritual objects really help anchor us in these moments-- especially around the table.
