0:08.0	transitional times where there can be confusion and out.
0:13.0	So we went on three days, Thursday, Sunday, the next Thursday, and we never left each other since
0:17.5	that Thursday.
0:19.6	And after kind of two weeks or so, he started helping we were delicious yellow and things that I was doing.
0:26.0	And after like two months he quit his job and we started building delicious yellow together.
0:37.0	Today I'm thrilled to be sitting down with the wonderful Ella Mills, the founder of
0:42.2	Deliciously Ella Mills, the founder of Deliciously Ella.
0:44.0	Ella was at the forefront of the vegan movement at the age of 23,
