When life gives you lemons… make salad dressing. I’ve been carrying some big cash around in my wallet since graduation and have been paranoid about losing it for the past week. Yesterday I went to Costco and was planning to spend some of it. However, when I opened my wallet, it was gone. I completely… Continue Reading

Cream of Asparagus and Broccoli Soup
I’m usually not a “creamy soup” person, but today called for something light yet hearty. I recently fell in love with a new cookbook: Clean Food: A Seasonal Guide to Eating Close to the Source by Terry Walters. I was intrigued by the Cream of Asparagus soup and decided to give it a try. I… Continue Reading
Birthday Fajita Salad
Today is Ashley’s birthday. I asked what she would like for her birthday meal and I told her that I would make anything she wanted (of course, I would find some way to make it vegan).

Springtime Asparagus
You wouldn’t know it these days, but it is springtime in Seattle – and spring means one thing… Asparagus! How do you like your asparagus? (or do you like asparagus?) I love it sauteed in a frying pan with a bit of Earth Balance. Or grilled on a barbeque with a little olive oil. Yum!… Continue Reading
Brown Rice Farina
Ah, another rainy morning in Seattle. Hello June. I’ve really been looking forward to June this year. Not only because I graduate, but because my life is ready to be filled with the beautiful vegetables soon to arrive in my CSA. It sounds like farms around Washington are having a rainy season too. I was… Continue Reading
