  • Oof, it’s been an interesting week it’s been. Between all my usual writing, reading, and working things, I’ve also had a visit with my brother and his family and a major mega sinus attack. The sinus attack is still lingering, although it’s a bit improved. Bright light still hurts like the dickens, but, thankfully, Mother…

  • Forced Reset.

    Well, today is a very interesting Monday indeed. I usually really look forward to Mondays, because it’s the start of a new week, the start of a new book, and a bunch of other things for me to focus on for the week ahead. This Monday, though, I woke up feeling like utter crap. I…

  • As I mentioned in another post, the boyfriend and I got a copy of one of Thug Kitchen‘s excellent Cookbooks for Christmas, and I’ve decided to go ahead and make every recipe in the book, even the ones with disgusting eggplant, and then blog about it because that’s just what people do. So, yesterday, since…

  • Sleepyhead.

    Work has definitely been kicking my butt lately. Our little sub-department has exactly four employees in it. Four. Our supervisor, one full timer, two part timers. It works pretty well, but when someone gets injured or sick, things get a little crazy. And it just so happens that our full timer is the one out…

  • First Reset of the Year!

    Happy Monday, everyone! I nearly forgot it was Monday, despite having been looking forward to it, because I stayed up quite a bit past my bedtime to watch the Golden Globes after work, then allowed myself to sleep in a bit, and then realizing that this meant I had less time to try to get…

  • Holy Macaroni.

        See that? That’s a giant thing of vegan mac’n’cheese that they had at work yesterday, that I got to take home because apparently I was the only vegan working yesterday (and there are a few of us; it’s an international health food store, it’s to be expected).  The photo doesn’t do it justice.…

  • Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you had a good weekend; mine was a little odd, but we had some beautiful weather that I managed to enjoy with a nearly five mile walk on Saturday before work, so that was pretty cool. Meanwhile, I’ve been working on this recipe that I’m pretty stoked about. The boyfriend…

  • I’ve been a little reluctant to post this particular recipe, though it’s probably one I make once every week. The flavor is fantastic, it’s filling, and there’s usually a lot of leftovers. But some people have very particular…views about chili. I’ve had some people claim that vegetarian chili is an impossibility, because a chili “has…

  • Recipe: Roasted Chickpeas.

    This Meatless Monday’s recipe is going to be a short and sweet one, as well as muuuuch later than usual. I’ve been on a really weird, more-hours-than-I’d-like work schedule these past few weeks, so I haven’t had much time to play around with a lot of recipes. I have one in my pocket, but I…

  • Recipe: Ultimate Veggie Soup.

    The thing with soup is that I’ve never really felt it was something that warranted a recipe. You mostly just throw things together and, voila! You have soup, and it’s really, really hard to mess it up. Since I’ve been hunkered down to an awful lot of work lately (tomorrow is finally my day off…
