Let’s stop pretending this is a food blog.
If you’ve been keeping up with my podcast, Under the Bleachers, you know that I’ve been on a mission to watch every movie that features Carey Mulligan as a lead. Well, I did, and now I need to make something of those ~30 hours.… Read the rest
Purim begins February 25. It’s time to prepare your hamentashen, decorate your masks, and plan your (virtual) Purim parties! While circumstances may keep us apart, they shouldn’t stop you from celebrating the story of Esther (if that’s something you’re into.)
When I set to work searching the internet for a free Purim play script, I found that most were for children or way too complicated.… Read the rest
Hello from New Jersey!
So far, McGinley Square has been a cool place to live. The density of people I love in the surrounding area is at an all-time high, and I found a dope local sub shop. My apartment is really comfortable, especially now that the hot water is working, and we have a parking spot.… Read the rest
This blog is essentially defunct, so my many readers might not be aware that for the past two years I’ve lived in Burlington, Vermont. It was never our intention to stay here forever and in a week Walt and I are moving on to bigger and better (my parents’ house). While the Green Mountain State is not destined to be my home, there are a few things here I really love.… Read the rest
It’s the middle of May and everyone’s sitting down to a big bowl of steaming hot soup.
Not really. Y’all are over soups by now! I certainly am. This was my first Vermont winter and I assumed the best way to get through it was by wearing exclusively Darn Tough socks and eating a ton of soup.… Read the rest
The title says it all: my vegetarian cookbook is ready for download. There are 29 vegetarian or vegan recipes in there, many taken straight from the blog, some brand new, all worth a read. Click here for a free PDF.
I’m excited to have a neat little packet of the best of my blog.… Read the rest
I’ve made spinach dip before, but this time I’m making it vegan.
Full disclosure, I went into this recipe thinking I was baking a delicious quiche for dinner. Instead, what came out of the oven was a creamy, cheesy vegan spinach dip. By chance I had both tortilla chips and tasty bread in the house so all was not lost.… Read the rest
I’m writing a cookbook. An electric cookbook. An ecookbook. Why am I writing a cookbook? Mostly because I’m unemployed and read Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert. My therapist recommended that book before she dumped me. Seriously, I think she dumped me. This cookbook will have all my favorite recipes from the blog in an easy-to-read format, a.k.a.… Read the rest
With all the hubbub around environmentalism and ban the straw and this seahorse holding a q-tip, it can be overwhelming to get started. If you want to make a change, try a zero waste swap. Below are four swaps I’ve made and stuck with.
You’re right! These changes won’t immediately end global warming, but, along with composting and changing my grocery shopping habits, they have helped cut down my impact by 80%.… Read the rest
I used to eat Amy’s frozen burritos all the time. Nothing is easier than popping a burrito in the microwave, burning the crap out of your mouth, and eating the entire thing in four bites. Now I’m trying to save money and lower my impact. It’s time that I create a replacement for my beloved $4 Amy’s burrito.… Read the rest
