Happy Pi Day!! Definitely in the top 5 of every nerd’s favorite holidays. Because I’m a super nerd, I decided to throw in an extra post this week to celebrate. I’m not normally a pie person (something about gelatinous fruit goo just doesn’t sit right with me!), but I have been known to go crazy […]

I am a pancake lover. They’re in my top 3 favorite foods and I usually make them at least once a week. I have all kinds of pancake recipes I like to use, most of which are vegan. I’ve only posted one recipe so far, so I figured it was high time to celebrate a […]

Do you love a lazy weekend? My favorite thing to do when I don’t have to work is literally nothing. I briefly left my house to go to the bar, but mostly sat around, played silly games on my computer, did some baking, and watched Star Trek with a beer or two. Aside from the […]

I’ve been on a bit of a decadent banana breakfast kick lately. Last weekend I made banana french toast and this weekend I made both these oatmeal banana pancakes and peanut butter banana breakfast rolls (recipe coming soon!). I’m not normally so into bananas, but they’re cheap, delicious, and easy to keep around the house. […]
