Other than being busy, not much has changed over here… my pistachio kick is still holding strong. I just can’t get enough of their complex aroma, flavor, color… nom. I [...]

{unrelated sidenote: I am getting very low on my own stock of The 100 Best Vegan Baking Recipes and I don’t plan on reordering. If you want to purchase an autographed copy (along with nom! nom! nom! buttons!) in time for the holiday and before I run out, you might want to click [...]

Last week I was chosen to participate in Foodie Fights once again. Being that my first round was less than victorious, I approached this one with a real sense of determination. Thankfully, the food gods smiled upon me and I was given ingredients I felt completely comfortable with: semolina flour and pomegranates. [...]

Apparently my friend Joe heard that I had fallen off of the chocolate wagon and came to my rescue.
I swear, Trader Joe’s just keeps rolling out more vegan goodness. It’s like a new, animal-free surprise every time I shop. The treat this week, dark chocolate mint “UFOs”.

Hello! I’ve been so busy that my camera has just been accumulating pictures for the past few weeks. Last week I officially finished the book manuscript (yay!!!!!!!) and got that sent off and last week was technically spring break, so I took some time off to just be wireless. No internet, email, [...]

Mmmm… breakfast. Have I mentioned how much I love breakfast yet?
Thanks to the waffle cart in North Portland, Flavour Spot, I fell in love with maple butter and veggie sausage waffle sandwiches a few years ago. But I’m too lazy to make waffles, so we sling pancakes on the griddle and [...]
