Eggless is Best

Sorry Chicken Little, I’m sure you have a fine product, but I have a egg salad alternative that will make even non-vegans dig in.  Talk about a timely post.  With the recall fresh on people’s minds, I’m fairly certain eggs aren’t flying off the grocery shelves quite like they used to… This recipe was the result of half a box of unclaimed silken tofu.  Unclaimed?  As if Kyle would be fighting me for tofu!?!?  Ha!  Ok, so I had leftovers from an undocumented carob tofu pudding dessert (when late night munchies strike all bets are… Read more >

Huckleberry and Finn

As I previously mentioned, my aunt and cousins came to see our new apartment and take us to lunch last week. We went to a local cafe called Huckleberry, which is one of the best places to eat see and be seen in all of Santa Monica. As tasty as my lunch was, I could hardly focus on the food because my cousin’s adorable son, Finn, had my undivided attention.  He’s so dang cute!  I know you all agree because last time he was on the blog he got more comments than the food! But… Read more >

Wow.  It still hasn’t really hit me. I’m several days behind in my posts and something tells me I won’t have much time to play catch up this week…so maybe I’ll get a few mini-posts up to show you what Kyle and I have been up to. [times a zillion] If you follow… Read more >

Mexican Layered Dip

Because (a) I’m without Windows Live Writer (still learning how to get XP on my MacBook), (b) I’m not very savvy with wordpress’ blogging tool, and (c) it’s taking me an hour to load each photo, I’m going to post another photo recipe from last weekend. It’s not like I reinvented the wheel with this one (the recipe is certainly not original), but the photos are pretty and I thought I should share. (Vegetarian) refried beans Black beans. Sour cream. Corn roasted salsa. Four cheese blend. Black beans. Avocado. More avocado. Salsa. Devour. I made the… Read more >

Seeking seaweed

Cravings are both a blessing and a curse. A blessing because they help me make up my mind (I swear 99% of the time I can’t decide on what to make for dinner even when I’m half-way through making it). A curse because when I do get that oh-so-rare lightbulb moment, it’s usually for a fairly random food and the chances of me actually having it on hand are slim to none. The other day my mind stomach was absolutely dead set on seaweed. Oddly enough, I actually had some wakame chilling in the pantry. I… Read more >
