I wanted to write some sort of lively post for all of you today but I’m completely lacking in the motivation department lately. Actually, I have plenty of motivation to do things I don’t need to do like peruse the internet’s endless supply of temporary wallpaper options and to watch Downton Abbey with Chris. These [...]

First of all, I want to thank all of you for the overwhelming support regarding my upcoming cookbook. I was blown away by all of the positive response and so touched by those of you who mentioned that Keepin’ It Kind has been helpful in your transition to veganism. I’ve been literally (ok, figuratively) (I’m trying [...]

“Why is it 85 degrees at 8:00 am?” I yelled at my car radio this morning. I am totally one of those people that you see talking or yelling while they’re driving by themselves. I don’t have road rage by any stretch of the imagination, but I do talk to the radio. I correct the way [...]

I used to make granola all the time. Like, every week. A big bowl of granola and almond milk is one of my husband’s favorite breakfasts and since granola is so expensive, I would make our own. Plus, it’s a super easy and somewhat relaxing task that makes your house smell like heaven. Why did [...]

Back in my pre-vegan days, I used to love a good cookie swap party. Now that I’m vegan and don’t have many vegan friends close-by, I’m bringing the cookie swap party to Keepin’ It Kind! Each day, for 25 days, one of my favorite bloggers will visit and share one of their favorite holiday cookies! That’s 25 Days [...]

How about a new recipe?  It’s about time, right? Chris and I just got back last week from an incredible adventure in Italy and Spain so I apologize for the lack of new recipes the last few weeks.  Aside from being super fun, this trip was rather transformational for both of us and I’ve returned [...]

Remember when I said that I’ve abandoned oatmeal as my breakfast of choice? Well, that’s still the case.  The very thought of it is turning me off.  The thought of the plain, wholesome taste of Morning O’s (Cheerio’s, Whole Foods style) in a bowl of cold almond milk, however, is what makes me rush home [...]

Back in the day, my friend used to host a cookie exchange party every year.  Everyone would bring about 40-50 cookies and the recipe printed out on an index card.  Each person would get to take 2 of each type of cookie as well as the recipe for each cookie.  It was an awesome party [...]

Before we joined our CSA, we stuck to buying the same fruits and vegetables, week after week.  Even at the farmer’s market, if I had time to go, I knew which items I wanted and stuck to those.  I didn’t bother trying to learn what those “mystery greens” or what that “unidentifiable tubular-shaped vegetable” was.

Growing up, my mom and I would make cookies from one of those pre-made Pillsbury “Chocolate Chip Flavored” Cookie Dough rolls.  We would make them in the evening and by the next morning (after I ate the last couple for breakfast), they were all gone.  This is due to the fact that we would leave [...]

Buttery Lemon-Almond Green Beans

I never ate a fresh green bean until I was about 24.  Until that glorious day, I had only experienced the canned variety (my family was big on canned food).  The age of 24 is when I first became interested in farmer’s markets and fresh foods.  I would buy mostly just fresh fruit, with the [...]

I am on spring break!  Or, my stepkids are, rather, and I am lucky enough to be able to hang with them while they enjoy their week off. My favorite spring breaks were when I was in college.  I never did the hard-core, crazy partying at some tropical beach town.  I was never seen on [...]
