Friends, it’s time to get serious. We need to have “the” talk. No, not that talk. The other talk. You know, the one where we sit down and discuss why on earth 2 chocolate cookies sandwiched between a thick cream tastes soooooo insanely good? And why did it take me so long to recreate…
Vegan
Tempeh Bacon
One of my favorite things about my childhood happened to be a certain day of the week: Sunday. My family and I would wake up, leave our pajamas on, and pray to the Almighty bready breakfast food gods.

Combos like peanut butter and jelly, peas and carrots, cookies and milk, and peanut and chocolate. There is something so soothing and satisfying about these food combos, as if they were simply created to be together….
Christmas Light Cookies
The older I get, the more I realize that people fall into 2 categories: 1. Those that love Christmas. 2. Those that hate Christmas. I have yet to meet someone who is in between and could take or leave it either way. No, there are clear lines that divide the population and by age 30ish,…
