Overnight in Norfolk, Virginia

Another night, another city. This time a lovely stop at Norfolk, Virginia with a lot of time to kill thankfully! I explored by foot, hitting up an old rural cemetery I had looked into before arriving. But there was also these huge navy ships around… one directly across from my Read more…


The Savory Fig
Delicious Treats on Long Island

Long Island’s The Savory Fig has been on my radar for a few months. With pop-ups here and there and ranging a broad geographic area on Long Island, I knew that if opportunity aligned with my plans, the delicious looking sweet treats I had been spying on Instagram would be Read more…


Valley Vegan, All-vegan in the
White Mountains of New Hampshire

It was pure joy to stumble upon Valley Vegan in Conway, New Hampshire while staying nearby. The all-vegan shop and bakery offered me (and others!) all I could need for sustenance. Fully stocked case made it difficult to decide… If I had a kitchenette in my room, I’d get some Read more…


Trying to Eat Vegan Food in Illinois and Indianapolis

I have only been to Indiana once before in 2014 and was looking forward to reporting on vegan eats. But my best food plans needed to be flexible considering the current pandemic and what it has done to supply and demand of vegan options. Here is what I wanted to Read more…


More Tacos With Teachers ๐ŸŒฎ

Middle school teachers get out earlier than elementary school teachers. So I have to kill some time before meeting my elementary teacher friends. So some perusing the aisles of Whole Foods. I like to stay abreast of new products and I like their vegan chocolate chip scones. So much that Read more…


England’s Dreaming–High Tea and Tourist Attractions

We are in London for many reasons. One of them is as tourists, another, for me, is as a vegan travel blogger. These two purposes would make up day one of our stay. Though jet-lagged and robbed of hours to sleep by the time difference, we joined the masses on Read more…


On V.V. Summer Assignment, Day 2: Bloodbuzz Ohio

What is hard about being a roadtripping blogger is that all your pearls of wisdom–the thoughts and ideas born on the road, inside its motion and pace–are diminished into imperceptible dots by the time you’re in a place you can write. Even thoughts that build into intricate cities of complexity, Read more…


You Are What You Eat

I’ve been called a snob many times in my life. But I’ll get back to that. As a budding adult, in weird‘s last true gasp, I found transitional identities that touched each of my developing ideals. Being straightedge was more than a penchant for guys with shaved heads, it was Read more…


Birthday, Part 3: Whose Streets?

I don’t work on my birthday. It’s kind of a rule. I usually flee town, hitting the road for vegan eats and roadside attractions. But times are tight. With cash flow low, I planned to spend the day in my city, New York City, enjoying the sights on my own Read more…


The Real-Deal Vegan Brunch

On sunny Sunday, August 1, 2010, I found inspiration in the pages of The Electrician‘s omnivorous cook books as he manually labored in his yard. A proper vegan bunch!

They’re Heeeere…. Champ’s Family Bakery

Strolling leisurely back to my apartment from the G train with none other than Ms. CandyPenny, we decided to turn around to check to see if Champ’s Family Bakery was any closer to opening its doors, offering Williamsburg its first all-vegan bakery. The last few times I had done a Read more…


Happy Fatherโ€™s Day c/o Orange Glazed Scones

My family gets to try a lot of my goodies. I bet my this fact doesn’t excite them half as much as it excites me to have an opportunity to bake! For Father’s Day I knew I needed to switch up my usual offering of cupcakes to account for the Read more…


4th o’ July

In honor of America and independence, more Vegan Brunch recipes! Creamy avocado potato salad. This dish gets ugly quickly under the blazing July sun, helping others remain weirded by vegan eats. I say use the potato salad recipe in Vcon for “mixed” parties. Beer-battered tofu. A simple and delicious recipe Read more…
