beige plate of yum

On November 19, 2010 By

This pic­ture is ter­ri­ble, but it sure hit the spot. It was my lunch today, cour­testy of Whole Foods deli. Some sweet potato cakes (made with sweet pota­toes, quinoa, brown rice, onions, cran­ber­ries and herbs), veg­gie stuff­ing and cran­berry sauce. Seri­ously, salty stuff­ing and cran­berry sauce are the only things I need to […]

rainy day cheer

On November 18, 2010 By

I am a big fan of day­light sav­ings so when we go off of it for the win­ter, it’s hard not to get a lit­tle sad. Here in the PacNW, it’s lit­er­ally pitch black by 5 p.m. We’re in our rainy sea­son, which means that even when it’s not rain­ing we are in for primarily […]

gabbing with the star

On November 11, 2010 By

So, one of my blog­ger BBFs and I decided to swap blog space and inter­view each other. She devised some ques­tions for me to answer, I devised some ques­tions for her, we picked yummy recipes from each other’s blogs. (You can read my inter­view here.)

With­out fur­ther ado, let me intro­duce some­one you already […]

I have dis­cov­ered a new-to-me bak­ing blog, and I’m hav­ing a bit of a love affair with it. Joy the Baker is charm­ing and funny, very cre­ative and dab­bles in vegan bak­ing from time to time.

As a whole, I rarely use other people’s recipes for bak­ing, but while cruis­ing on her site last weekend, […]

teesy tater tot hotdish

On February 17, 2010 By

Teese Chal­lenge #1:

In the Mid­west there are casse­role dishes, but there are not casseroles. There is hot­dish. The essen­tial kind of hot­dish: tater tot.

Now, I’ll be hon­est with you– my mother never really cooked and I don’t care for tater tots, so I never dined on the authen­tic dish before, but I know that it […]

cleaning house contest!

On February 10, 2010 By

This year one of my goals is to have less “stuff”. I’m try­ing to con­sume less chem­i­cal gross­ness (just because it’s vegan, doesn’t mean you should eat it…like Baco’s) and to purge unnec­es­sary junk from our house.

We’ve really been try­ing to focus on nour­ish­ing our bod­ies. And with a lit­tle prep, it’s too easy […]
