A couple of weeks ago, I was approached about reviewing a kosher cookbook. I had to pass because many of the recipes contained meat and I didn’t think I could do a good review only sampling a select few. The publisher instead asked if I’d like to review their kosher cookbook focusing on dairy — if you don’t know a lot about keeping kosher, if there’s dairy then there’s no meat! Meaning Dairy Made Easy is…
Read moreSo, the best part about cookies is cookie dough, right? <– If we can’t agree on that, we’re probably not friends. In fact, even when I for some reason decide to bake the dough into actual cookies, I barely heat the dough enough for the edges to be crispy and the inside raw. That’s why when I heard about EatPastry cookie dough, I was pretty pumped. A line of vegan cookie dough = cookie dough I can eat raw with no…

But dry pie crust I’ve just never been able to get into. I would eat pumpkin or coconut cream pie and leave behind the bottom and edges (or pawn them off on the many, many people who for some reason think the crust is the best part).

While I’m a HUGE fan of a cheese sandwich (like seriously cheese + mayo/mustard, maybe some lettuce or tomato if I’m feeling crazy), there’s just something so alluring about a sandwich you may…
Read moreI participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Millennial Central for Kirin. I received product samples to facilitate my review as well as a promotional item to thank me for my participation. Do you like trying new beers? I love going to beer festivals and sampling a little bit of everything, heading out to a taproom (Michigan has a surprisingly active brewery scene), or just popping into the “fancy” party store in town and…
Read moreWhile everyone was stuffing their faces with cheese dip and pizza on Sunday, I was shopping for bathroom tile. Being an adult = rough stuff. The weekend wasn’t total loss though, because I had my vegi-versary dinner party on Saturday. (Side note: how many of you are wishing I’d shut up about my vegi-versary already? It’s almost as bad as a birthday for me!) There were some big highlights in the dinner (okay and one low light…
