Happy Thanksgiving, everyone who is Canadian and also those who are not Canadian yet appreciate the sentiment of gratitude in October. I spent the long weekend up Island with various familial branches, so did not get to cook my usual Thanksgiving feasty. I’m going to do that later this week, which I am telling the [...]

Orange Thai Curry
On October - 4 - 2011
Welcome to autumn, my friends. I myself don’t care for it much. Don’t like the dampness, the early-onset darkness or the shameless manner in which the foliage starts shedding its clothing. I take no pleasure in jumping through piles of crunchy leaves and maybe that’s just me, but the one thing I can’t complain about [...]
I’m baaaaaaacccckkkkkk, Vegan MoFos!
On October - 3 - 2011
Well, well, well. After a three month (unintentional) hiatus, I am back on the keyboard just in time for my favourite event of the year: Vegan MoFo! This summer really kicked my creative butt: life plans went a little topsy turvy and sucked out my motivation for a bit, but everything happens for a reason. [...]

Locally Vegan Day 31
On March - 31 - 2011
I MADE IT!!!!!!!!! Whew. What a frickin’ rush. 31 days of eating nothing but locally grown and produced food. If my friends and family thought I was an a-hole to go out with when I was just vegan…well, let’s just say I introduced a whole ‘nother level of pretentious to my loved ones this month. [...]
Locally Vegan Gets Fiery!
On March - 29 - 2011
Locally Vegan, Day 20-something-or-other. Not sure. Let’s just say it has been awhile. The sunshine decided to hang out for a few days, so I wanted to eat something absolutely beautiful to reflect my radiant mood. Wait, wait, wait. Full disclosure, people. Truly, I’ve been a little PMS-y or Post MS-y, or just plain pissy [...]
