So after I lost the battery recharger for my trusty Sony point and shoot and realized it would cost over a hundred dollars to replace, I decided to finally do that upgrade I had been planning in anticipation of travelling in the summer.
When I first bought the Sony camera, photography was a hobby I wasn’t [...]
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I’m really starting to love cooking and baking. If you were to have asked me about that five or six years ago, I would have laughed you out of the room - I used to hate it. But some kind of strange nesting bug has hit [...]
I’m sorry for the delay in reporting, it’s been a hectic Christmas so far. Right now I am piecing together my life after the influx of material objects that is Christmas - and also contemplating new years resolutions. I thought I would report back first on the gift-giving experiment J and I attempted. [...]
What’s new?

So I finally broke down and purchased Veganomicon - the newest all-purpose authoritarian vegan cookbook which is sure to form a solid foundation for my cooking for years to come.

Okay, because I’m nice and wanted to share the awesome soup love, I emailed Ann Gentry, the author of the Real Food Daily cookbook, and asked for permission to post the amazing Curried yellow Split Pea Soup recipe on my blog, the one that I had made earlier for J’s family. Why? Because [...]
Well the evening was a success! Hurrah! Much fibrous plant-based nourishment was had by all. We started off with the Curried Split Pea Soup from Real Food Daily, which I think was my favourite out of all three recipes. I added some collard greens to it since I had them on [...]
What is a healthy vegan lifestyle to me? In order of importance:
Incorporating plenty of raw fruits and vegetables - especially greens!
Minimizing stress as much as possible
Having an active lifestyle (while also incorporating yoga/meditation)
Avoiding too much wheat (thus largely gluten free) and eating good grains like quinoa, brown rice, millet, etc.
Cutting out high bad fat [...]
