Like I said on Thursday – We have too many apples. Luckily there are many things that can be done with apples, but too few of them seem to be savory. Well. I’ve followed in the footsteps of other vegan bloggers in the last few weeks and taken their recipes...

I love Thursdays as a day of reflection. It’s been kind of gloomy outside this week, so it’s nice to think about all the good stuff going on, and it also makes me appreciate having the option of staying inside with my kitten for a while while it rains. This...

Sometimes I make complete disasters in the kitchen. I’ll admit it. I inherited my father’s tendency to throw anything interesting together in a pot and hope for the best. This has served me well. It had wide ranging applications, especially when cooking at food not bombs, or limited ingredients. It’s...

Someone sent me an email regarding MoFo, asking me what was up and if anything was wrong. That’s the kind of nice VeganMoFo’ery that makes this such a great community. Yes, I’m okay. Everyday I write part of an entry and then get distracted with some other task. Bad MeShell....

We spent the morning making baked goods, the same ones as yesterday, for J’s family thanksgiving celebrations, and they weren’t fellow MoFo’er recipes. We also spent several hours playing WoW (while the pumpkin cheesecake chilled… yeah… that’s why). I had been trying to remember who and where the inspiration behind...

We did our small thanksgiving a little early (today), because J has his family’s one on Monday (the real day). I’m not a big fan of the smell of roasting turkey, to the point that it makes me pretty nauseous, so I’ll be skipping the big family event tomorrow and...

The premise behind Things I Love Thursday posts is just to list off things you love, and talk about them (or not.) I had written a lot more, but after a computer shut down and a missing autosave, I lost it all (I don’t love when that happens). I love...

It’s Tuesday, so it’s time for some Tasty Treats. I had a great time with all the apple recipes yesterday, but despite having a kitchen filled with freshly picked apples, I’m opting to make something with another autumn favourite – Pumpkin! I have really positive memories of pumpkin related baking...
