Let us know what you think!
First Meal: I am eating in solidarity with Gary who had a tooth extracted. That means purées, mashed, mushy foods. Baby food. Sometimes food like this is nice, liked mashed potatoes or a creamy soup. But when there’s nothing to chew, you can go nuts! I warmed up a plate of three puréed dishes: Red…
It’s been a long day already. Gary had a tooth extracted earlier today. Neither of us wanted to eat before his 11am appointment, although I made a thermos of Vanilla Black tea to bring to the Oral Surgeon’s office. Afterward I drove Gary home and then walked to our neighborhood pharmacist and grocery store to…
First Meal: I have scheduled a professional housecleaning service for my mom’s home out on Long Island. When I interviewed the service I mentioned that mom is a little high maintenance. They assured me they were used to having to chat with people and that it shouldn’t be a problem. It was a problem. Apparently…
First Meal: Some days I feel bottomless. Nothing satisfies my hunger. Today was one of those days. I made Steel Cut Oats with Blueberries, Apples, Coconut and Flax Seeds.

First Meal: I suggested a buffet breakfast this morning. I brought out the Red Cabbage Salad with Apples, Ginger, Carrots, Onions and Lime Juice. Gary made Ezekiel Toast and I put out the Lundberg’s Thin Stackers Red Rice and Quinoa Crackers that we brought home from our trip to California last week. There was…
First Meal: It’s the Annual Vegan Cookie Swap Party. We had a bunch of things to do before leaving and I stuffed my mouth with a few spoonfuls of Red Cabbage Salad that I had made the day before. We love this party hosted my Annie and Michael Walsh. We started going before their girls…
First Meal: I got up and after a little exercise was so hungry. But I was overwhelmed with all the food we had after shopping yesterday I couldn’t think of what to make. Gary had more clarity and took over, making a Tofu Vegetable Hash with Potatoes, Red Peppers and Kale. Thank you, Gary. …
First Meal: We are low on food and it’s time to go out an hunt. The timing is right, I have to move the car which is parked in a Friday, no parking 11:30am-1pm spot. We are off to Trader Joe’s. It’s a Friday and everyone is here. It’s like Manhattan with the check out…
Green Juice: We walked to the Oral Surgeon today to see about Gary’s tooth that lost a filling. An appointment has been made for an extraction next week. Gary’s lucky, he had had little work done on his teeth. This is the first major tooth event for him. Afterwards we walked home stopping at Ripe…
