Probably the most common question I receive from vegans or ex-vegans is how to best reincorporate animal products into their diets. Many ex-vegans are reverting to an omnivorous diet because of failing health – there are many essential nutrients that are easily found in animal products, while for many of us they are not readily [...]
Junk in the Trunk.
This weekend was all about the junk, and it was perfect. It didn’t start out that way, though. It actually started out pretty healthy. Divine, as always. After breakfast we trekked across the causeway to Bahrain. We have been going there a lot lately, out of necessity. Errands, meetings, and appointments galore. Our meetings took [...]
Saudi Arabia’s First CSA!
I was really excited when I woke up on Monday because that evening we would be getting our very first delivery from Saudi Arabia’s first ever CSA! Community Supported Agriculture (and the politics of food in general) is something I am very passionate about, but until now there hasn’t been one in this country. Luckily, [...]
On the House.
Last week Cody and I celebrated our 7 year anniversary with a delicious meal at what is now our favorite restaurant in Bahrain – Bushido. Since that meal I have talked that place up about a dozen times with various people. It was just that good and the service was just that incredible. We actually [...]
Christmas Catch-Up!
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and Happy (almost) New Year! The past week has been packed full of fun, food, and happiness. Cody takes 2 weeks off of work for Christmas every year, so we have been enjoying each other’s company, spending lots of time out and about with the dogs and playing with Ender almost [...]
All in a Day’s Eating
Merry (almost) Christmas! Isn’t this time of year so great? I love the music, the movies, the parties, and the FOOD! Since grad school is on break for the next 2 weeks, and I don’t have any free-lance writing assignments at the moment, I’m really and truly on vacation! I woke up this morning and [...]
Confessions: Loving Lately
Life is so good around these parts! The weather is beyond fantastic, I finished up my second semester back in grad school (straight A’s, thank you very much!), and Cody finished with grad school entirely. I’m so proud. He’s now got his MBA! There is lots to love these days, and I wanted to share [...]
The Lazy Cook’s No-Bake Nutella Cheesecake
My love for nutella has been well chronicled on this blog (nutella ice cream, anyone?), and lately I had been trying to dream up ways to jazz it up a bit for the holidays. There was just one thing holding me back. You see, I’m lazy. Really lazy. And whenever I started thinking a nutella [...]
Eating Bugs in the Amazon
While the rest of the food blog world is posting recipes for Christmas cookies or eggnog, I thought I would go down a different path…. Every year my dad visits Peru for a few weeks to study plant medicine with various tribes in the Amazon, such as the Bora, the Witoto, and Shipibo-Conibo peoples. No, [...]
You Win Some, You Lose Some.
Last weekend Cody’s band 26 North competed in the second round of the battle of the bands competition. It was a long day of sound checks and getting set up for Cody, so before he headed over to Bahrain (I was going over a few hours later) I fixed up a power packed lunch for [...]
 | Hi, I'm Tasha and I really am voracious. I love food; thinking about it, writing about it, and most of all eating it! I hope you'll join me on my culinary adventures. | |
