When I was a kid, I thought carrot cake was super gross. Now I know better. It’s not scary at all; it’s just a really pretty orange spice cake with cream cheese frosting. I grated a pound of carrots. (While grating, I wondered why the YMCA doesn’t have a carrot-grating class, because it wore my arms out.) Anyhow, I grated them really teeny so that they wouldn’t be weird and crunchy in the cake, but…
Last weekend, I went to NYC and stayed in SOHO and sipped beers on the rooftop of my hotel. This last minute trip was like the universe giving me a present that I could dunk into savory yogurt. On the way I saw cute clouds that I’d dip grilled veggies in. Care bear af, right? Hung out at the #ChobaniMeze Home where the food was cute and so tasty. See that mango lassi with yogurt in…
A couple weekends ago, I went to Grand Rapids thanks to ExperienceGr and The Lemon Bowl (who organized this adventure weekend). We started off a boozy weekend with happy hour and beer and wine and champagne at the Food and Wine festival and finished off the night with a Founder’s brewery tour! Can you believe all those cans of All Day IPA?! We got up bright and early to get breakfast. I had that lil wrap.…
This is my second time baking up this Carrot and Apple Oat breakfast slice. Basically the vegan and slice-y version of this recipe. I can’t wait to eat it for breakfast every day! Can’t wait for Sunday! Eating fried chicken made by my girl Erika! Really might need this egg waffle maker. To serve ice cream, obvz! This Goat Cheese with Cherry Onion Compote from Cindy has me wanting to have snack dinner in a…
Can you believe I was lucky enough to be invited to a rooftop party in Detroit with Door-to-Door Organics?! I brought my friend Katie who appreciates cocktails and cheese as much as I do. She’s cooler though because she can whiskey it up. I had a beet and carrot juice vodka cocktail and she had a ginger and whiskey situation. We were a couple of the first in line for appetizers. I’m pretty good at…
Right now, Elliot is under the couch hiding from fireworks. So despite the pup-fear, this weekend has been really great! I grilled tofu and corn Friday night and ate this at the picnic table. The rest of the weekend was hot dogs, pizza, donuts and cheese plates. All while wearing a crop top! (Yeah summer!) Now, this may seem like a cray amount of food for a weekend, but I mean, it was a 4-day…
In January I went on a little vegan-eating thing for 3 weeks and really loved it! I like how food-rules (self-induced even) turn into more creativity sometimes! I mean, if I don’t give myself any restraints I end up peanut butter cookies passed around at the bar or all the Cadbury mini eggs. But regardless of all that, this is my current favorite meal. It’s ALL veggies and the sauce has my heart. I feel pretty good about…
Hey guys ! I’ve partnered up with Door to Door Organics and it’s fun already. I’ve eaten bagels and jam, cookies for breakfast, Lara Bars for snacks, roasted up a ton of veggies for dinner, mashed pinto beans for in veggie burgers, and eaten salsa out of desperate hunger. And guess what! I’ve got a little something for you good-lookin’ folks. Place an order for your first Door to Door Organics box and use the discount code “MEGABITE”…
You guys! I went to San Francisco earlier this month to hang with my BFF and work a few days in the SF-based office for the agency I work at. (Is that sentence weird?! You get the idea, right?) Basically, I figured that I’d do a long vacation with a few workdays mixed up in there. I was pretty excited to get a direct flight landing me there just in time for brunch. We went to…
Sometimes my horoscope sounds like a card in Monopoly. It’s all “Your plumbing might have problems. Get an estimate!” Other times, Susan Miller is all, “October is HARD. Mid-November your life will begin to sparkle again.” I’m pushing my way through these early fall months with ice cream. My days can sparkle a little bit here and there based on bites of this stuff, ya know? And I’ve been wearing my frumpy fleece and walking…
