Friends, can we just talk about how I’m “one class down, one to go” for my first grad school semester? That’s just a little exciting. So close to being done! Can we NOT talk about how those save-the-dates did NOT get mailed? I got into a fight with mail-merge and the mail-merge won. Now they [...]

Product Review: Francesco Rinaldi To Be Healthy Pasta Sauce
GIVEAWAY at the end of this post! Whoo hoo. Have I talked about Mitch’s homemade pasta sauce? Probably. I renamed it “Italian chili” because we never eat pasta around these parts (which is not my preference but his, FYI) so calling it spaghetti sauce seemed just wrong. But anyway. It’s really good and packed with [...]
Product Review: TofuXPress
Happy July 1! I know I’m getting older because I’ve turned into one of those people who keep saying things like, “HOW is it July already?” I don’t even have anything all that exciting going on right now, and time is flying by. Anyone doing anything fun this weekend? My agenda includes things like: running [...]
Getting my Zen on at Kripalu: Part 1
Post subtitle: vacation recap #1 Once again, if you’re new to these parts, last week I took a trip to Boston, starting with a two-day (1.5 days, really) stay at the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health, located in the Berkshires region of western Massachusetts. My (and Mitch’s) flight, transportation to and from the retreat, [...]

Windfall
My mom called me awhile ago and told me she has some random food items that she thought I might like (her fiancé ordered a bunch of food online and I guess this came with it). Not going to lie, when she said “organic raw pecan butter” I got really excited, because hello, that stuff [...]
How I Stir Fry
In my last post I talked about one of my two “go-to” meals, a big pot of yummy soup. I mentioned my other "go-to” was a big stir fry. Just like with my soup-making skillz, I feel like I’ve gotten pretty good at making a decent stir fry. I press a block of extra-firm tofu [...]
Representing San Diego Left and Right
I freely admit that I am a lucky duck to live in San Diego. It’s no fault of my own really; my parents decided that San Diego was just nicer than Brooklyn so they moved here before I was born (not that I’d be upset to live in NYC, because I have a ridiculous obsession [...]
