black friday fuel

On November 25, 2010 By

Or lay-on-the-couch-and-watch-TV-all-day fuel. Or Tofurky-coma-hangover-need-energy-to-tolerate-family-I-only-see-this-time-of-year fuel. What­evs. It works in any scenario.

While you worry about the food for today, let me worry about the food for tomor­row. Use some of the left­over ele­ments of Thanks­giv­ing that will be lurk­ing in your fridge, des­tined to mold (ah, we all have such good inten­tions, don’t we?), […]

winner, winner, chickpea dinner!

On November 23, 2010 By

When there are lots of things going on in your life at the same time, the first thing to usu­ally go is a good meal plan. Quick fixes and faux meat tend to fill the gaps and I always can always feel it. It makes me slug­gish and just feel icky, frankly.

We’re mid-move […]

less space, more stuff!

On November 22, 2010 By

I like to think that I have a very well-equipped kitchen. From uten­sils and gad­gets to pans and hard­ware, I have a lot of really solid tools for my trade. Some might say I have too many kitchen toys… The things is, as you all know, find­ing places to put all this stuff. Stor­age! That […]

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 […]

tomay-to, tomah-to…

On November 16, 2010 By

Okay, I’m kind of suck­ing at MoFo. I think Novem­ber is not as good a month for it, it’s too busy. Plus, I have some news to share soon (no, I’m not preg­nant) that has been tying up my time, but that will come.

I love me some tomato soup. It’s my go-to food when I’m […]

food cart friday– and a giveaway!

On November 12, 2010 By

Port­land is known as the land of food carts. You lit­er­ally can’t pass an unused park­ing lot or street cor­ner with­out trip­ping over one. You think it would get old– I think it’s heaven.

For most peo­ple from other parts of the coun­try, the idea of eat­ing out of an old airstream, a renovated […]

So… I didn’t MoFo yesterday. Oops.

Today, I want to dis­cuss bak­ing and health. I get enor­mously frus­trated when peo­ple say to me, “Oh, you’re a vegan baker? Your stuff must be really healthy.”

Uh, no, actu­ally. It’s not.

And then I have to try to explain to them that while it’s not […]
