This past weekend I definitely found happiness within – and without! It was a bit of a whirlwind, with work, yet another trip to Bahrain, and brunch with friends, but I loved every minute of it.

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 [...]
On the House.
by Tasha on January 15, 2012 in Appetizers, Asian, Chocolate, Desserts, Fish, My Life, Restaurant Review, Shrimp
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 [...]

by Tasha on November 7, 2009 in Appetizers, Dinners, Dips, Raw, Thai
The other day when I was making my scrumptious Tuscan Pesto wraps, I decided to make Cody something a little different. He is a huge fan of Thai Curry and I thought I could make him a veggie wrap that would capture all the key flavors of one of his favorite dishes. And I did! [...]
Red Onion Marmalade
by Tasha on November 2, 2009 in Appetizers, Dinners, Dips, Tofu
Red Onion Marmalade has always been one of my favorite things, but up until now I had never made it for myself. One taste of this amazing spread and I bet it will be one of your favorite things, too. It has the buttery taste of cooked onions, the tangy bite of vinegar and the [...]

Radical Vegan Lunch Series #2 May Day Edition: Borscht and Pirogies
by Tasha on May 2, 2009 in Appetizers, Dinners, Global Vegan, Radical Vegan Lunch Series, Russian, Soups, Vegan 'Meat'
Maybe it is because I am named Natasha and grew up constantly being asked if I was Russian (no) but I have always been fascinated with all things Russian; the literature, the history, the politics, the architecture, everything! I was lucky enough to grow up as an Aramco Brat in Saudi Arabia where our annual [...]
