San Francisco, Millenium & More...
I am such a slacker! I started this post upon returning from the bay & there it sat for weeks in the drafts queue unfinished until P asked “Are you gonna write about the trip?” Oops…YES….
This was the trip that almost wasn’t. My pal P & I planned this trip back in January & counted the days until the weekend was upon us. After a shaky start to the new...

Tofu Scramble Florentine & Crispy Rosemary...
It’s the weekend & you know what that means: tofu scramble time!
My weekday breakfasts typically consist of either quick cooked oats & fruit, or a green smoothie that I can take with me out the door. Even though I get up super early, I am not left with much time to get creative, so I save that for the weekend. I came up with this scramble a few Sundays ago, ever...

Two Berry-licious Breakfasts
I spoke to my Mom this morning to make our Sunday movie date plans & she mentioned she was making a modified version of the “Blueberry Steusel Cake” from the Skinny Bitch Ultimate Everyday Cookbook…
Her modification? Subbing fresh blackberries in place of the blueberries…
Resulting in this beautiful creation…
Yum! Meanwhile I was...

Then I scour the Internet for all things cabbage looking for something I haven’t yet tried, in the hopes that I will fall in love with this cruciferous nuisance. Well, the day has finally arrived, & my cabbage complaints will now cease. For the meantime,...

LoveLikeBeer's "Love Affair"
I mentioned previously that I don’t put much weight on Valentine’s Day. That being said, it is typically light any other night for me - yoga class, cooking in, & unwinding with a glass of wine. Even if I was “attached” I am not sure I would do things much differently. But I am always up for a LoveLikeBeer event. Especially when it involves dessert.
So even...

This Week's (small) CSA Share!
Oh Joy! More cabbage. Last week my friend Jackie over at Vegan Yack Attack suggested making a “Tomato & Cabbage Soup,” so I just might have to try my hand at a variation of her recipe. I’ve exhausted all my other recipes. I also had an amazing “Tomato & Fennel Soup” last weekend while having lunch at Solace with my friend Amy. Been dying to recreate that too...

Be My Vegan Valentine...
Oh Valentine’s Day, here you come again. Whether single or spoken for, I’ve never put much weight on it. It’s just not that big of a deal to me. That’s not to say that I wouldn’t treat my loved ones to something special, or that I wouldn’t appreciate a token of admiration from a “valentine.”
My favorite way to spoil a valentine is with homemade...
