Seasonal Images
The Iced Whale ornament waited patiently for the Christmas tree, comforted by the whiff of the salty scent of the Atlantic that wafts to The Electrician‘s home. In protest to a premature holiday kick-off, he waited well-past Black Friday/Small Business Saturday/Cyber-Monday to adorn the tree. Aaaah, a Poinsettia in front of a frosted window. The gorgeous red and green leaves [...]
Vegan Croissant.
Vegan Croissant. Yes, a vegan croissant! A greasy, oily croissant. Holy Moly.Champs in Williamsburg, Brooklyn has transformed into a diner. Vinyl booths and all! And on top of that shimmery vinyl seat I sat, wrapping my greasy fingers around a vegan croissant S.A.G., their Boneshakers signature scramble sandwich. Tofu scramble, Daiya mozzarella (since I was [...]
Out/About Vegan {Summer Edition 2}
I can’t stop eating it. Mango and sticky rice. I love it. I think I need to do a search for the best–and really, when I say the best I mean the biggest portion. I really have never had a bad batch. Even after this to-go mango & sticky rice sat in its foil container [...]
At Week’s End
Organic Village‘s Shiitake-Veg “Burger”. Quite good for a raw version of a burger, however, after horrendous service I’ll likely not return to this place.

But for a gal who sorts time through food, the vibrant color of shared meals and food creations encompass [...]

There is a little Indian convenience store next to my Sunday restaurant favorite, Dosa Diner, in Hicksville, Long Island. In this store you can find a ton of cheaply priced pantry staples, many aligned with Hindu vegetarianism. It is worth a stopping by– their products are tremendously cheaper than the very same items sold at [...]
They’re Heeeere…. Champ’s Family Bakery
Strolling leisurely back to my apartment from the G train with none other than Ms. CandyPenny, we decided to turn around to check to see if Champ’s Family Bakery was any closer to opening its doors, offering Williamsburg its first all-vegan bakery. The last few times I had done a walk-by it was shackled up [...]
Stalker
Dear Champ’s Family Bakery, I pass you on the way to work. Really. You think I am going out of my way to see you? You’re so silly. No, I did not take a picture of your unopened storefront. Oh that above? I just happened to notice that you’ve been painted black. That is new [...]
