Three Cheers for Good TV!

Anyone else excited about the good shows this week? On tonight’s agenda: currently we’re watching House (I’m actually not really feeling it so far…kind of boring me actually) and later tonight is Castle! I’ve been looking forward to the return of Castle for a while now. I gymmed it up this afternoon. Except more annoying…

Blogging is a Reward

After my post on my Smlove Pie makeover this morning, I told myself, “Lindsey – you are not doing anything else, including blogging, until you apply for five jobs!” Five job apps later, here I am! Applying for jobs can be absolutely mind-numbing and boring, so it’s good to have a “treat” waiting. Lunch was…

Smlove Pie: the Remix

Over the weekend I made a dessert based on Isa Chandra’s Smlove Pie for my brother-in-law’s birthday. The original recipe can be found at the above link, or on page 257 of Veganomicon. That being said, I made a good amount of substitutions/ changes. For the crust – when Isa said “12 graham crackers” I…

Home Sweet Home

Hi from good ol’ Gainesville! This weekend absolutely flew by, but it was such a good weekend. Our afternoon errands were mostly a success, except when Ross drove right past the Whole Foods exit. hehe, he was thrilled… He had a perfectly good excuse – we were having so many great conversations today! I love…

Double Dinners & Dessert

Get ready for a whirlwind of a post, I have been a busy lady! Plans got switched around once we arrived in Orlando, so I was left with two dinners to attend last night! I decided instead of skipping one or only eating at one, I would go to both and divide my dinner in…

A Walk in the Park

Hey guys! We got in Orlando super late last night, and had an even later night up with the fam for a bit. (Dinner was just a veg. delight sub from Subway with no cheese – don’t worry, Vegan Venture is still in full force!) We crashed hard last night and slept in. I’m embarrassed…

Finger Food Friday

Lunch was destined to be made up of finger food. Why? 1. I’m dirtying up way too many dishes in preparation of my brother-in-law’s birthday dessert (read: I’m lazy). 2. All of my clean silverware is in the dishwasher. After this morning’s incident, I’m letting Ross unload the dishwasher (it’s ok, I unloaded it last…

I Hate Bugs!!

I. Hate. Creepy. Crawly. Nasty. Bugs. Especially when they are in my kitchen. My morning started out innocently enough (minus the fact of being dead tired because I was up late playing teacher and helping Ross grade papers…I got a LOT more sleep than he did though!). I wandered into the kitchen and decided it’d…

Ultimate Lazy Day

I pulled the ultimate lazy card for dinner tonight. Microwavable Amy’s non-dairy burritos – and I didn’t even make them. To top that, I was a lazy food blogger and I didn’t even take the picture! I casually asked Ross, “Hey honey, think you can handle dinner tonight?” (4 minutes later Ross hands me my…

Never Fail Roasted Potatoes

I was a bad job searcher this morning. I just simply did not feel like looking for a job. So I didn’t. I blame it on the late night insurance paperwork last night. At least that’s done! Lunch was perfect – exactly what I was craving. I had four tiny red potatoes left on the…
