Have you ever had nutritional yeast? I know, it doesn’t sound good at all. But I’ve learned a lot about it since I started reading about vegetarianism. It’s not that I never eat meat…but I just prefer veggies (and I’m too lazy to cook meat for just myself!). Nutritional yeast, nicknamed Nooch, is an inactivated …
Remember when I talked about how eating too much tuna is not good for you? Get it from a can, and it’s even worse (plus, the can is most likely lined with BPA containing plastic). Note: Chick pea surprise is a great sub for tuna, but it would also be best to not get the …
Joe and I spent the weekend in NYC. Our plan was to head out of Rochester on Friday after work and drive to the city, stay at Hotel Indigo, catch a show, and patronize One Lucky Duck and Pure Food and Wine (in possibly an unnatural frequency…but hey, we can only get to NYC just …
It was Sunday night. Joe was starving, and I was sick (and had been sitting at the computer for too many hours)…so I offered to run to the Owl House for take out. Why didn’t I get dinner? Because I had the dumb idea earlier to make cookies and I was full (but that didn’t …
Yesterday, Joe and I met my Dad and his wife at the Owl House on Marshall Street. The pictures are from my phone, so they’re not great, but this place was worth taking pictures of! Lynn got the same thing as Joe (plus cheese), and she had been there before with friends. She said everyone …

I randomly had spaghetti squash for dinner with pesto on it on Sunday night (because my plans changed for the weekend and I was being a hermit, so I didn’t want to leave and go to the grocery store to find something to eat). This dish was really funky looking, but quite delicious. Unfortunately, I …
Beets and Butternut! This wouldn’t have been my first thought for a dinner pairing, but I saw a recipe yesterday for a mostly raw vegan beets and butternut dish, and it was really pretty (and I suppose I also believed that it would taste good!). I intended to make it exactly as the recipe said, …
