I mix it up from day to day, but I always take my fruit-shaped multivitamin, then I’ll also add in fish oil gummies (shaped like fish), skincare gummies (with sea buckthorn) and energy gummies.Īll your treats are naturally gluten-free, are there any things you avoid in your own diet? I’m really into gummy vitamins, since they satisfy my nostalgia for candy but also make me feel like a responsible adult who takes care of herself. I guess my tendency to experiment with food doesn’t end with Rice Krispies Treats!ĭo you like to take any vitamins or supplements? If so, what are your go-tos? So far my favorite creation has been my waffled peanut butter & granola sandwich. Recently I’ve also been experimenting with my single-waffle maker (also by Dash). What’s your go to breakfast and lunch? Does it change every day or do you have a set routine?įor breakfast I have coffee with almond or oat milk, and a peanut butter granola bar (I love the Peanut Butter Sea Salt Lenka bars.) For lunch, I’ll usually have a salad (I like to mix up what goes in it), avocado toast, or eggs (scrambled or soft boiled- I am obsessed with my Dash egg cooker). It’s the one thing I always have in my apartment. And of course, I’m always down for a bowl of Rice Krispies with almond milk or oat milk. I don’t keep a ton of snacks on hand since I truly don’t have much room in my kitchen to store things I don’t use to make treats, but peanut butter or hummus with some Mary’s seed crackers are my go-to snacks. Usually if I’m making treats to eat myself, I’ll brown the butter or add peanut butter. Now that I’m working with them every day, I don’t really find myself craving them that often, but when I do, I go for it. When I first started making treats full time, I ate them a lot. You are the queen of treats! Being surrounded by sweets all day, how do you stay healthy without the sugar crash and burn? Do you keep healthy snacks on hand, if so what are your faves? At the same time, if I’ve been healthy all day, I’ll have a fun dessert or make myself Rice Krispies treats. If I feel like I haven’t had enough nutritious food on a given day, I’ll have a salad for dinner or grab a juice from Juice Press or Pressed Juicery in between meals. I love snacks, and because of what I do, I’m constantly meeting people in the dessert industry and trying their products. How would you describe your approach to your own health and well-being when it comes to nourishing yourself? We sought Siskin out because A) Have you seen her work? and B) We wanted to know the answer to the obvious question–does she eat Rice Krispies treats all day? Below we caught up with the author of Treat Yourselfto her frank approach to wellness, sugar highs and lows and the weirdest commission she’s ever received. “As I’ve gotten older, I think more about what I put in my body and try to eat nourishing food most of the time, but I also indulge in foods that don’t necessarily have much nutritional value, because I enjoy them.” If you’ve been on Instagram in the last year, you are sure to have seen Siskin’s work as her alias Mister Krisp, the one woman show who creates edible masterpieces made of, yes, you guessed it, Rice Krispies. Water Child dives deep into personal confrontations in encountering states of crisis and unfamiliarity how do we overcome trauma, communicate our fears and connect to a support system to move forward as a community? I believe that all of us have felt some sense of loss in recent times and I do hope that we can find our own Water Child after this experience.“I’D SAY BALANCE AND MODERATION ARE MY GUIDING PRINCIPLES,” SAYS JESSICA SISKIN FROM HER HOME/TREAT ATELIER IN NEW YORK CITY. How then do you as an audience, consume this placeholder of live theatre, performed live, via a digital medium that also becomes available as a recorded film that is not a film? I have embraced the unprecedentedness of the times by exploring forms, styles and themes within my practice that would seem as a departure of my usual inter-medial and abstract work returning to the complexity of realistic people, circumstances and conflicts that are explored in this play. I’ve noticed how in the process for this work, the times in which the employment of directing and cinematography came into play and when the actors’ own practical discourse between ‘screen acting’ and ‘stage acting’ subconsciously were in contention. There will be much to garner in evaluating the experiences of theatre making and audienceship at this stage of global quarantine and the ensuing steps if we ever assume a new normal of live performance. Personally, Water Child has been a slew of many interesting firsts in an attempt to assume normalcy by directing a theatre piece through an online medium.
