chocolate nut milk showdown

On August 8, 2010 By

Choco­late almond milk has always been sta­ple in our house. It’s just SO good! When stock­ing up last week, I noticed some­thing new– choco­late hazel­nut milk! Pacific has also started car­ry­ing their own hemp milk, so we decided to have a nut milk show­down. The judges were: myself and my lit­tle brother Alec.

a review and vegan baking on the tv…

I’m in love.

I adore Port­land. I love it so much that even thought Seat­tle has supe­rior Asian cui­sine and Mighty O Donuts, I am still always happy to see the Port­land sky­line when we arrive back in town, home of my beloved Blos­som­ing Lotus, Proper Eats, Black Sheep and many, many others.

i love you, alberta

On October 8, 2009 By

No, Alberta is not a per­son (although I work with some­one by that name, so that could be weird). Alberta is a street in NE Port­land and it’s quickly becom­ing one of the tasti­est streets in town.

Home­grown Smoker is the vegan BBQ food­cart that opened a cou­ple of months ago. They used to be […]

a baker’s tour of portland

On July 20, 2009 By

Port­land is a great place for food­ies, no doubt. Whether you’re vegan, omni, micro­brew afi­cionado or mixol­o­gist, Port­land has you cov­ered. That’s all fine and good if you wish to be served, but what if you want to be the one behind the apron? One of the things that Port­land has […]

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 […]

dinner and a workout

On March 15, 2009 By

My beloved Trader Joe’s has added some more vegan good­ies to their store and I am here to share them with you. I swear to my cats that I am not paid by them, because that would be my dream job, rather I am a fanat­i­cal shop­per who you have the for­tune or mis­for­tune of […]

book tour of portland

On February 18, 2009 By

Nope, not that kind of book tour. Not yet, at least. I took some time off of work last week and early this week to work on the book. I have a hard time focus­ing in the house, as I am eas­ily dis­tracted when there are other things to fid­dle with, so I fig­ured getting […]
