13 is a lot of beans

I blasted music from the Nutcracker all morning long, and it actually made the horrible weather not seem so bad.  I’ll have to remember that trick for the future… Frothy coffee and an english muffin stuffed with peanut butter helped, too.  But what REALLY warmed my heart was all your sweet comments on my weighty post.  You guys are so awesome.  Seriously.  It’s always nerve racking to put yourself out there, but I am continually amazed by the overwhelmingly supportive and positive comments.  Gah.  You guys are too much! Anyways, after breks, I cuddled up… Read more >

Lunch chit chat

I know at the end of my last post I said I would be back to regular blogging this weekend…ummm…oops!?  So much for that one.  Truth be told, I’ve been having a rough time getting back into the swing of things after my trip to the West Coast.  😕 Trust me when I say the lack of photos is no loss on your end.  I’ve eaten my way into a black hole of snackfood consisting primarily of peanut butter, hummus, and pretzels.  6 (six!!) tubs have fallen victim to my voracious appetite in the past… Read more >

My path to semi-vegan-ness

In continuing the Q&A session…the next question on the agenda is why and how did I come to be vegan? I figure if you know me in real life or read on a semi-reg basis, you know how I eat.  Vegan shmegan.  I’m not big on labels, and my food preferences are more motivated by how my GI system reacts, not so much my personal feelings on consuming animal products.  That said, this answer requires far more extensive background info, so I’ll start from the beginning.  My mom is (was) a vegetarian and raised the… Read more >

Old, New, Orange, ‘Fu

Sunday offered nicer weather than Saturday, but I still wanted warmth in my belly for breakfast.  What to make, what to make…french vanilla SO Delicious coconut milk coffee, followed by the world’s thickest bowl of pumpkin oat bran.  You would think this would fill me right up, but I was hungry again just a few hours later.  I slept in, though, so it was well past noon, and I set to work on lunch. Cubed ‘fu rubbed in cornmeal and paprika, tossed in a skillet, and sizzled to death.  Pretty snazzy for a recipe on… Read more >

Pizza, pizza, pizza. Who am I?

Lately I’ve been having such rando cravings, I feel like a preggo!  (Don’t worry Mom…) I had frozen pizza just the other day, and yet, the following TWO days I had pizza as well.  Seriously.  Who am I?  This is pretty odd considering pizza is not exactly a food I would typically associate with strong feelings of lust.  Growing up, it was never a food I especially craved.  As fun as pizza parties were, discovering I was lactose intolerant at such a young age severed any chance of forming the quintessential bond that most kids… Read more >
