It is organic, sprouted sunflower seeds in various flavors; I have tried and loved both the Sweet Curry and Teriyaki but they have several, including Cocoa Mole. Yum. Last night I sprinkled some of the Teriyaki onto our biggie salad and it added […]

For the 14 years I was a vegetarian before becoming vegan I feared giving up ice cream. I was of course fearful without having all the information for I did not know how unbelievable non dairy ice cream could be.

Imagine a natural product with a fragrance so sleep inducing that almost before you could set the bottle on the nightstand you were in full REM sleep. That is the new linen spray from CT Soaps and Candles. I bought one for Sandy several months ago and she is addicted to it the way you […]

Since becoming vegan one of the things I have been hyper vigilant in seeking out is mouthwatering vegan dark chocolate. To me it rivals finding the Lost Ark, finding my lost keys or finding a long lost love. The kind of chocolate that melts when it hits your tongue and tingles the sides of your […]

This cheesy post is aptly named for Sandy, the one in our household who thrived on cheese before turning vegan. One of the sense memories that I knew would need to be replicated for Sandy to enjoy veganism is her beloved, Parmesan cheese. Having been caught sprinkling it on nearly every vegetable or main course […]

I have shared with you before that Sandy is a lover of cheese. Her commitment to loving cheese was so solid that when I decided to try going vegan I was sure it would be a solo attempt. Much to my delight and surprise, Sandy tried the vegan thing as well and we have been […]
