Pumpkin & Pomegranate

Hello all! I apologize profusely for not posting something in the past 2 months (or around that, for shame!). I have had a lot going on in my life. Some good, some bad, and I am not sure that I will be wanting to share most of it with the internets.  I will be posting [...]

Ok, admission time. I made these berry biscuits a few days ago, but have yet to post the recipe for a couple of reasons:
1. They are good, but are not something I would necessarily feed to others. Ok, I’d feed them to most of you, but that is because I know you all appreciate my [...]

I was in dire need of more breakfast breads. Well dire is a bit extreme, but yes I wanted some. I just got some strawberries from a groupon for SPUD so they seemed like the perfect thing to stick in a muffin. By the way, have I mentioned how much I love groupon? That site [...]

I have had bread on the brain lately, and this banana bread was something I lay in bed dreaming about on Sunday morning. I mulled over it for a while and then dragged myself out of the cozy warmth donated to me by two sweet feline bodies, and got to work. I thought about having [...]

I admit that I am a tad speechless right now.  I don’t know exactly how to describe this, except that it is truly scrumptious. A gourmet treat to behold. I had 2 slices for breakfast, but I could easily see this as a base for a little canape as well. The loaf is small, but [...]

I haven’t always been a fan of Indian food. When I was younger I tried some from a buffet and did not appreciate the spice combination so I shunned it for years. I am an adult now, and I recognize that I may have been overhasty. There is such variety in Indian cuisine I couldn’t [...]

Yesterday I posted all about my brunch at Plum Vegan Bistro and I ended by mentioning the recipe I tried out Sunday night. I felt that it was just way too much for one blog post, so it continues. My Sunday was a day of vegan goodness! I admit the whole day wasn’t vegan as [...]

Because you know I had to make them. You clearly can see I have an obsession with pumpkins. in fact, I ponder a tattoo of a pumpkin (and a pomegranate). If I do it, it will be of my favorite variety, the fairytale pumpkin.
I haven’t been able to find any of these lovelies in my [...]

I came up with the idea to make these yummy apple muffins because my father is a muffin guy. My dad has been visiting these past few days, and one of the things we have discussed has been nutrition. Recently he went to see a nutritionist, and while I believe that she means well when [...]

I have had so much squash this summer you wouldn’t believe it. No complaints! I love the Zucchs and the squashes, but I have been running out of ideas for (quick) ways to prepare them. Most of my squash have had the same fate…either a slow roast and topped with vegan Parmesan, or a breakfast [...]
