Would you eat cricket flour?

[+ other unique protein sources] Heyyyy. How’s your day going? I’m slowly crawling out from the black hole of tiredness that a red-eye flight will do to you. We all slept about 3 hours on the first flight, and then got home from the airport, ate breakfast, then Liv and I took a nice, long…
