Walking In A Rainbow

sweet white corn and summer tomatoes Popsicle sticks writing in hot, sticky tar, on hot streets, on hot summer days. Sitting on the curb with tanned shoulders bending to the ground by the weight of the sun. Spider webs sparkling in the morning dew. Cool, summer streams filling the air with rushing sounds of clearContinue reading “Walking In A Rainbow”

GOD IS THE RECIPE

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE RECIPE. The Recipe Is Everything That Matters. THE RECIPE IS THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS. You say you don’t want a recipe. You laugh and say we don’t need your crazy dumass recipes. You’re dismissive when you say it’s not helping us. We need help you say, and all you doContinue reading “GOD IS THE RECIPE”

VEGAN VS PLANT

You wouldn’t call seaweed vegan. Seaweed is seaweed all by itself. It’s a plant. You wouldn’t call tomatoes or blueberries or nuts vegan. They’re plants. RECIPES are vegan or not vegan, animal-free or animal-based. If the recipe contains no animal products, it’s vegan or animal-free. If the recipe contains some part of the animal, thenContinue reading “VEGAN VS PLANT”

Where Have You Been?

When you go animal-free you find yourself attracted to more variety in your condiments, spices and herbs. In fact, in every category of animal-free, you begin noticing that which was previously blurred by the meat being the center of attention – differences in pastas, rices, veggies, beans, nuts and all the different, delectable ways they can beContinue reading “Where Have You Been?”

What Veggie Means Here

When I use the word “veggie” in my recipes or writing I’m referring to animal-free/plant-based. Veggie means vegetable. I am not referring to vegetarian, which usually means containing eggs and/or dairy. Eggs and/or dairy are not plants, so go figure on how the world now accepts eggs and dairy as plants.  

THAT’S YOU NOW

You want to explore. I know you do.  It’s like being a kid again isn’t it? That feeling of going outside into your environment on any given day as a kid, to explore the world beyond your house or apartment to see what lies beyond the boundaries your parents set for you? What a wonderful,Continue reading “THAT’S YOU NOW”

Respect Is A Side Effect Of Going Animal-Free

Begin by going one day a week, any day or any meal, without meat. Then advance to more days on more occasions. Or start with eliminating dairy and eggs. About 65% of the human population  has lactose intolerance*. Eating/drinking dairy, besides being unnatural after being weaned from mother, besides causing digestive disturbances via lactose intolerance, coats yourContinue reading “Respect Is A Side Effect Of Going Animal-Free”

I Want An Animal-Free Mall

That’s right. A mall. Animal-free. A big one. With lots of glitter and big lights. With every kind of shop. Grocery, bakery, deli, shoe store, pet supply shop, clothes, hair salon using only cruelty-free products, and on and on, restaurants too. Good ones. I have a vision. And it’s a nice one. No fur, noContinue reading “I Want An Animal-Free Mall”
