I saw this recipe in the E2 book and was very intrigued. Because I love all things Mexican inspired, I added a ton of my own favorite flavors, completely hijacked the recipe and made it my own. I hope you love it as much as I do. This is a third meal created from the […]

Thank you friends for the birthday wishes. I had the most wonderful birthday I can ever remember having. It included turtle brownies, dark chocolate caramel turtles and turtle Voopee Pies from Veganville Bakery that were to live for.

I was standing in the kitchen making a pot of tea while noodling what to have for dinner. Suddenly, it came to me….make an Eggplant Stack. I don’t really even know what that means, but there it was brewing in my mind along with the tea in the pot. I started to picture it as […]

When I was a little girl my parents owned a boat. It was a magnificent boat with a master bedroom, two bathrooms and a living room big enough to have fun in. It was my dads greatest source of joy and where he would take his last breath. The three of us traversed the Great […]
