Try a little happiness, or at least some visual inspiration, with our new REVEL LIFE Tumblr. It’s a purely visual feast that tells a quiet story about the world as we imagine it. It’s a heightened world, meant to infuse our daily lives with a sense of magical possibility — a world where you might don your dress-up box finery, straddle a zebra and ride off toward some gleaming horizon.

As a former vegetarian, I loved their sense of moderation. While plant-based foods predominate their menus, meat is not off the table by any stretch. And as someone who just loves life, I fell deeply, madly, platonically in love with Kayne, who’s living the kind of robust, authentic, fully-realized life I aspire to.
