Hey guys! If you’re looking to try some new foods, may I suggest a few of my new faves? Food For Life/Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain English Muffins I love these English muffins! I toast them very lightly (careful when toasting sprouted grain products, they burn more quickly!) and eat them plain. One muffin: 160 calories, [...]

Hey guys! Please welcome Nadia’s 15th guest post! Nia shares an awkward moment (Not “Dear-God-It’s-Me-Margaret” awkward, don’t worry ) & asks how friends with differing food- and eco-related lifestyles might find understanding without proselytizing. ________________________________________________________________________________ I am all for the vegetarian/vegan movement – heck, I’m voluntarily reducing my meat consumption. What I cannot stand, however, [...]

Hey guys! The Random Number Generator (Random.org) says that the following comment (and its writer, obvs), wins the $40.00 Whole Foods gift card.  Since I don’t argue with the voice of Random, without further ado… “» elise said: | Edit { Jan 28, 2010 – 09:01:14 } tweeting now!” Aww I am very stoked it was [...]

It came to me in the middle of the night. I was engulfed by the sense of calm that comes from knowing I can rely on someone. Who can I rely on? Mister Tortilla! (Don’t hate just cuz I still have weird fascinations with food and personify it…) Tortillas have got to be one of the most [...]

Hi guys!  It’s almost Friday, wahoo!   What’s on the agenda today?  I plan on doing a mini-workout, going to my first day of training for my new job and then meeting some ex-co-workers for a drink (drinks? troughs full of booze? )  What about you? I sought and received some free samples from Penny’s [...]

Amended. Bonjour!  What are you guys up to this lovely Saturday? I want to highlight a blog posting on eating alone that I enjoyed and think you’ll enjoy, too.

Happy Friday, guys! Whole Foods First things first — I was charmed by all of you entering the Whole Foods give-away!  It was a chance for me to take my own non-scientific poll on what healthy foods and items you guys are lovin’ and also a way for me to, sneakily, learn about some new [...]

Hey peeps!  Wow, a lot of you wanted in on that Whole Foods action, eh? Can’t blame ya!  Times are tough, but healthy eats are not meant to ride out waves of financial woes. Speaking of woes, let me tell about something that made me go “whoa!” (what am I Joey Lawrence in Blossom?) The [...]
