My name is Liz and I've worked with and used WordPress since 2008. At first I used free themes to build sites, but then found the Thesis theme. I used Thesis for a few years, and then moved onto the Genesis Framework.
Genesis became my theme framework of choice until 2019. We developed a number of useful Genesis-related WordPress plugins to make the job of site building easier. For example, Genesis Dambuster was one of ours.
But then after Gutenberg had been released by Automattic I realised I needed something else. WordPress was changing too fundamentally for me to stick with the Genesis framework. That's when I decided to move my WordPress website building efforts into Oxygen.

This for example is the road on the way to the shops.

I am working to improve my French and am studying for the DELF B2 exam.
I was an on/off vegetarian for years. But in 2010, we made moves to increase the vegan content of our diets until we became practically fully vegan. I pretty much believe that if we were all vegan it would:
