I have a love/hate relationship with cereal. I love it. But, I hate it too. Whenever there is a sugary cereal in my house I will eat it until it’s gone (that usually happens quickly). Randomly. When I’m bored/not hungry/whatever. Most of this misses the camera, so I’m not held accountable 🙁 Right now I have a bunch of Nature’s…

Vegan Chocolate & The Intuitive Eating Process
Your guesses were correct – I made tofu curry for dinner. I squeezed out the excess water in the tofu for one hour. Then, sauteed a sweet onion and chopped some carrots. I put the tofu, onion, carrots, coconut milk and spices into the crockpot on low for 4 hours (until it had thickened and the carrots were soft). This…

Vegan for a Day
I am participating in Vegan for a Day, part of Vegan Week hosted by Katy and Michelle. I don’t eat meat, but do eat dairy, fish and eggs. (I usually refer to myself as a pescatarian.) But, I knew one vegan day would not be hard for me. I actually had a day recently that was completely vegan “by accident”…

Chickpea Fail
I roasted a bunch of chickpeas into oblivion today. But, I did still snack on a bunch of them (even in their charred state) as I was cooking dinner so I wasn’t hungry when dinner actually rolled around. For din-din I made Spinach & Feta dip with Oikos yogurt… Ingredients: 1 small container plain Oikos, 1 cup frozen spinach, 1/4c…

My Little Cottage
I don’t know what happened but I hadn’t eaten cottage cheese in months and then recently “rediscovered” it and now want to eat it for breakfast everyday! I’m going to switch it up tomorrow since I’m doing vegan Thursday tomorrow as part of Vegan Week. Yes, I know it’s supposed to be a whole week, but I don’t think that’s…

Walk in the Dark
I took an afternoon walk today at 5pm. It was dark. That makes me sad 🙁 But, this new granola cereal makes me happy 🙂 A little too happy actually. Note to self: Granola should not be eaten by the handful out of a box like it’s air or out of a cereal bowl like it’s Rice Krispies. It’s granola….

Everything in Moderation – Including Moderation
The big buzz around town right now is – “What’s your plan for Thanksgiving?”. Many are talking about their plan to “stay on track” and avoid over-doing it on Turkey Day. But, not me. Nope. When R.E.R. does Thanksgiving she does it right. I truly believe in finding a way to enjoy all the foods you love in moderation. I…

Review: Food and Loathing
I read “Food and Loathing” a few years back, but decided to take it on the road trip this weekend to read it again. The last time I read it I was in therapy for disordered eating (B.E.D. mostly) and I was in a very bad place with it. I don’t know if it affected me as much the first…
