Happy Friday to you all! Things have been crazy busy here. This week is — no, was — spring break, and I had envisioned getting caught up on things that fell to the wayside during the last weeks of teaching last quarter and then having some time to relax and, you know, have a break. […]

Ode to the Cranberry
Cranberries are one of those foods that I see and I just want to grab a handful and start eating. Big mistake. On their own, these little buggers are bitter as hell and not very tasty. I used to spend a great deal of time looking for farm real estate (our dream is to move […]
Thanksgiving Recipe Roundup
It’s already that time of year again…coming into Thanksgiving! Thanksgiving can be a stressful time for vegans (and new vegans especially). For one, it is incredibly depressing to think about the 46 million turkeys slaughtered each year in the United States for Thanksgiving day alone. That is a lot of individual lives taken for one […]

I’ve been cooking a lot to experiment with creating vegan versions of some of the Thanksgiving favorites. In particular because I’d been cooking so much myself, it was a real treat to go over to my mother-in-law’s house […]
