If you like to cook or eat,
we probably should meet!
This year, we got to celebrate both Chanukah and Thanksgiving and “The Chew” (TV) called it Thanksgivingakkah… which I thought was really clever so I adopted it! This blog is called Thanksgivingakkah Vegan Style! I’ve taken it one step out of the box! lol So, what do we want first? Concepts that you can create your … Read more
This year, on ‘The Chew’ I noticed they are celebrating Thanksgivingakkah, because Chanukah falls on the day before Thanksgiving. It comes out of New York. Leave it to them to come up with something clever! They say that it will be 79,000 years before this happens again, so I thought I would celebrate it here … Read more
According to the 2013 State of the Specialty Food Industry Report, people are buying ~ and I just assume using ~ more Condiments, Dressings and Marinades. Now, this isn’t a sexual revolution….

One of the things I did over the weekend is turn my organic pumpkin into Apple Pumpkin Crumble. Look ~ there are always people carving pumpkins. So, it’s not like people are going to really care if you decide to use a permanent marker instead, right? RIGHT CHEF! And it’s really sad… but did you … Read more
I was wondering about freezing vegetables. My first concern was: ‘If I buy organic Kale at Costco, am I losing nutrients’? Ya see, just like you, I buy Kale at the store and within days, (sometimes up to a week) it goes bad. After throwing out package after package… I thought really? Really? So when … Read more
I was shopping in the store the day before Halloween with my 27 year old son and he tried to tell me that I needed to spend $10 or more on candy for the kids in the neighborhood. Well, first off, I live in a building. No one Trick or Treats in a building. But … Read more
