Eating our way through the state fair

 
Yesterday, Shane and I made our annual trip to the Minnesota State Fair.  We go ever year for the exhibits, carnies, fire eating munchkins, and of course, the food!  You’d be surprised at how much vegan crap there is to eat at the state fair if you know where to look.  Even if you’re on of those weirdo health [...]

Stripey Cookies!

 
When I saw the recipe for yummy looking stripey cookies on Have Cake Will Travel today, I knew I had to have them.  You see, it makes a tiny batch (only five cookies) and we’re almost out of all sort of baking supplies so these were perfect.  I really wanted to make the recipe just as it was [...]

Shane’s Vegan Hundred

Its my turn to playing along with the Vegan’s Hundred posted on the Bittersweet.  I’ve only bolded things that I’ve had vegan versions of, I have crossed out the booze due to the edge and sauerkraut because I can’t get past the odor. –Shane

Oh Fudge!

Shower Cupcakes

 
No, not cupcakes you eat while showering, that would be gross!  I made these little lovelies yesterday for a friend’s baby shower at Borealis.  A bunch of us worked together on a really cute knitted and crocheted blanket for her wee one and there were other little gifties as well (Here’s the Flickr link for [...]

Homestyle Yumminess

 
You gotta love foods that come in loaf form.  They’re oh so yummy and comforting, even when it’s icky hot out and the air conditioner is blasting away.  Tonight we had a favorite, the lentil burger recipe from Hot Damn and Hell Yeah pressed into a cake pan.  If you haven’t checked that book out yet [...]

A Tale of Two Candy Bars

 
The other day, Mr. Husband and I were at one of the five bazillion natural foods co-ops in the Twin Cities looking for some munchies and stumbled upon some candy in the checkout line.  I was pretty excited because at my level of lactose intolerance, there are only a couple of candy bars that I can [...]
