dark magic… and chocolate

On October 22, 2010 By

Okay, HP fans! Here is another Harry Pot­ter themed treat that Pot­ter­heads and Pot­ter­haters alike will love to eat.

Before I get going, I wanted to draw some atten­tion to this awe­some vegan Harry Pot­ter blog: Dumbledore’s Vegan Army. Fun stuff!

So, first, I wanted to work with that Trader Joe’s peanut flour again, in a […]

peanut… flour?

On September 21, 2010 By

One of the many rea­sons that I love Trader Joe’s is because aside from the every­day sta­ples (like flour and soy milk), you dis­cover these ran­dom trea­sures. They vary by region (I still miss the vegan grape juice sweet­ened cin­na­mon rolls they sell in Phoenix) and you never know how long you have before they […]

What hap­pens when you are a pro­cras­ti­na­tor of epic pro­por­tions (I have two “impor­tant” things I am sup­posed to be work­ing on but don’t feel par­tic­u­larly invested in) and you are child­less and asked to make cup­cakes for a 3-year-old’s birth­day party? You go a little crazy.

Straw­berry cream-filled vanilla cup­cakes with straw­berry buttercream […]

Some­thing big.

Some­thing delicious.

My birth­day is this week. With our […]

Hello! I know I haven’t been post­ing very much this month, but I promise that it’s for good rea­son and you’ll soon know why.

My friend, Ximena, had a birth­day on Sat­ur­day and I had an appoint­ment at her shop on Sun­day. She is the veg­e­tar­ian tat­too artist and shop owner (vegan tat­toos!) who also […]

i spoke too soon

On April 6, 2009 By

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”.

They are basi­cally hugely over­sized chocolate […]

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, noth­ing, just relaxing. […]
