Vegan Victuals: The Blog |
Embodying Freedom
Peace, rest, relaxation and pedicures involving American flags! It’s Fourth of July, Colorado family-style. Woken up by the dapper feline Kramer, Independence Day started with a deep long meow. It was a good thing too as top on the day’s itinerary was Om Time‘s Firecracker Flow, a strenuous two-hour yoga session in one of Boulder, [...]
Reuse: Fronch Toast
My family had a few extra loaves of Italian bread delivered with our Father’s Day meal a few weekends back. With VwaV‘s Fronch Toast recipe in mind, I gladly rescued a loaf from my father’s characteristic penchant for hasty disposal. This trait, through the years, has had me sifting through garbage bags for my important [...]
Happy Father’s Day c/o Orange Glazed Scones
My family gets to try a lot of my goodies. I bet my this fact doesn’t excite them half as much as it excites me to have an opportunity to bake! For Father’s Day I knew I needed to switch up my usual offering of cupcakes to account for the fact that the house is [...]
Food… Kind of a Big Deal
As a lover of food, I need to know it deeply. I want to. I’m reading Stuffed & Starved, The Hidden Battle for the World’s Food System. It’s moving me in many ways. Firstly, it has been awhile since I have had the opportunity to read at my leisure, to read and not have to dissect [...]
These Are A Few of My Favorite Things: Chocolate Chip Cookies
Chocolate chip cookies are my favorite kind of cookie… and it does my head and heart well that thee best I’ve ever had was my very own. They are one of my favorite things. See Previous “Favorite Things“.
World Cup…cakes
I kind of caught World Cup fever. It was hard not to with television, newspapers, chalkboard signs at bars and men at the bagel store hyping the rivalries and sensationalizing the sensation. Heck, even the supermarket was prepared with soccer cupcake liners! They were the last piece of a cupcake plan that had taken shape [...]
Spice Girl
I have a real problem with running out for Thai lunch specials during the work week. In hopes to quell the nagging whim, I thought I ought to make something I’d want to eat come 12:10. With a recently expired tub of tofu to utilize, I opted to whip up a traditional tofu scramble, incorporating [...]
Memorial Days
This past weekend was the Electrician‘s Memorial Day barbecue. Although a meat-heavy grill event (I was the only vegetarian besides a veg-curious 11-year-old girl), care was taken that I’d need not settle for a less than full plate of scrumptious bbq fare. But of course! The vegan-only grill saw as much action as the one with [...]
These are a few of my favorite things: Pancakes
What can I say? I am all about a morning batch of pancakes. As long as I can remember I have had it bad for flapjacks. From when my mom used to mix up the boxed kind when I was a peon, to my taking over duties for the household years later, to my early [...]
Happy Mothers Day
I am the Budgie Baby a parakeet in the kitchen You’re my eyebrows my need wipe down the table since the sponge is already wet He met you at a church dance I met you after 3 before barely making a peep I know the world of why in the creases ’round your eye I [...]
Brooklyn Bread Face {Ode to MP}
Ms. CandyPenny recently tried her hand at making bagels from scratch, de la Vegan Brunch. In an effort to channel her spirit back to New York, I thought I’d give it a go myself. Rise, rise, rise… is one of those words that starts to look misspelled when you type it several times. Everything: Hawaiian [...]
