#LunchWithLo Episode 4: Using Up Leftover Butter

If you’ve ever ended up with a small amount of leftover infused butter, you may have struggled to find a good use for it. Have no fear, friends, because I’ve got a tasty, quick recipe for you to use it all up: candied nuts. Just melt together an equal part of butter and brown sugar (1 to 2 tablespoons of each per cup of nuts) into a smooth syrup and then toss with a cup

#LunchWithLo Episode 3: Kief Infused Bacon Fat Recipe

This week’s episode of #lunchwithlo is a super easy method for infusing butter, fat, and oil with cannabis. I used bacon fat, but you can replace that with any fat or oil that you prefer (as I mentioned several times in this episode, lol). I like using bacon fat because I hate to dispose of it and it makes for a tasty salad dressing base. Also, it’s great to grease a cookie sheet for chocolate

#LunchWithLo Episode 2: Lickit Lollipop Review

This week’s episode of Lunch With Lo is all about my favorite edibles in Colorado: Canyon Cultivation‘s LickIt Lollipops #thcsweetlife.  I’m calling this one a snack sized episode because I didn’t make anything, I’m just showing off someone else’s tasty treats. However, this episode is actually longer than my last episode. Oops. Guess I talk too much.  In the future, Snack Sized editions of #lunchwithlo will be shorter and easier to digest.  Like last week,

#LunchWithLo Episode 1: Lavender Gin & Tonic with DRAM CBD

I’m so excited to officially launch my cannabis focused cooking channel: Lunch With Lo. This has been a year in the making. And really, maybe even my entire lifetime in the making.  The first episode is a super simple sleepy time cocktail packed with some CBD, lavender simple syrup, and the only good gin out there, Hendrick’s. This little glass packs a punch and is sure to get you ready for bed.

[INFOGRAPHIC] The Science of the Munchies

One question I frequently hear from people about my cannabis use is how do I reconcile that with my desire for physical fitness. There’s a reason why people associate cannabis use with never ending, unhealthy snacking — because cannabis makes everything taste and smell better. It does trigger a hunger response. Which is one reason why I won’t keep my favorite lactose free ice cream in the house on the regular.   It’s common knowledge that consuming cannabis

Valentine’s Day Gifts For Stoners

I’m not going to lie and pretend that Valentine’s day is something I actually care about because I don’t. Like most holidays, it’s another day to me. I’m like a thousand times more excited for the day the community pool opens in the spring than I am about Valentine’s Day. Yet, I’m not going to leave you high and dry this V-day. I have some fantastic ideas for a stoney valentine’s day. Also, my winter

Holiday Cards for Stoners

I have a love/hate relationship with greeting cards. I love getting them in the mail but tbh, as soon as I open it I think, how soon is too soon to toss this? I digitize them before tossing, I’m not made of ice (more like slush). I also display them on an old whiteboard rigged with wire and binder clips until they’re visibly out of season. However, I will continue to send them as often

Gift Guide for a Travel-Loving Stoner

I know LAX just made headlines with their new cannabis policy (you can take it with you), but in my experience, that’s been the case at a lot of airports in the United States…if you’re not a total jackass and agents aren’t profiling you because of your skin color. The big thing is to hide it in plain sight. Like when I was still smoking cigarettes and slipped a couple of painstakingly rolled joints into

Gift Guide for an Activist Stoner

I don’t have a silly parody today for you. But I do have a few gift ideas for your stoner friends who are vocal about injustice and inequality. They’re probably a little harder to shop for because they probably object materialism, capitalism, and are actively boycotting multiple companies and organizations. Kind of hard to shop for these dedicated activists. Thankfully I’m here, and I’ve got some ideas on how to treat them right this holiday

Gift Guide for Cannanerds

Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but this DND is keeping my eyes full, and since there’s no place to go, let the dice roll let it roll let it roll.  Today’s #stonergiftguide is for the nerdy stoners you know and love. This is a hard and very specific type of person to shop for and it was very apparent that there’s not a whole lot of crossover between a traditional nerd and the stoner community.
