Well, well, well, here we are. The Big 50. That’s a serious milestone, right?! All the better that it’s timed perfectly with thermidor<’s touchdown stateside as we get comfortable here in Vegas.

It was the UK’s first official cannabis patient conference this past week, and the London venue was filled with patients, but also prescribers and industry advocates to help keep medical cannabis momentum in full swing.
At thermidor< we truly love all things culinary, so it genuinely excites us when we see more people pairing food with weed –as per this piece from the NYT. It also helps us to imagine a wider world of weed where chic European spots are filled with infused pastries.
