HELLO REAL LIFE!

Welcome! My name is Ivy. I am an academic by training and a foodie at heart, in a small but mighty body. Classical with a twist, married to the love of my life, a proud mum of two little lions, and one little human. We are currently living in Berkeley, CA. When I am not dreaming of the grey skies of Scotland, I read, write, bake, play with the babe, and consume more Medjool dates and dried figs than anyone I know.

Shakingmytofu aims to make plant-based life convenient, affordable, and adaptable for everyone. I will be happy if I can bring light, peace, wellness, and mindfulness in our daily lives. Feel free to spend time, have a look at the recipes, lists of plant-based sources (from snacks to clothing), images, and articles. Contact us anytime with queries, suggestions, and collaboration ideas at shakingmytofu@gmail.com or simply by filling out the form below. Look forward to hearing from you!
