                    On this episode, I'm talking to my friend Mallory about Sabbath. Mallory and I became friends in a somewhat unsuspecting way and she is just one of the friendliest friends I have ever known. Like her carnivorous conversion into vegetarianism, Mallory has also become a recent Sabbath-convert and is here to share what she’s learned so that you too can experience the true rest you’ve been longing for.
