Cooking is fun. Eating is funner. I cook, photograph and write these recipes.
Everything I post on this blog I make from scratch using fresh wholesome ingredients.. I've been cooking since I was a little kid.
My recipes are based on trial and error, along with studying cookbooks, family recipes, blogs and cooking shows.
Some of the veggies and herbs I use are grown in my garden. Yay sustainability!
I'm working on making my yard into an edible landscape. It's really fun to go out in the garden and pick your veggies for dinner!
Going to start slow releasing some of the best photos from the 1,000 person demo this past...

Official website for the March Against Monsanto. On May 25, activists around the world will unite to take back our food.
Hey Kids! Don’t forget to go out on May 25th and March against Monsanto! This link shows the location of thousands of events worldwide. See you there!
Oct 16th is take your crappy food back to Whole Foods Day, or ”World Food Day”, where Whole Foods customers are being encouraged to return masses of GMO products they purchased at Whole Foods. I’m in. I often look at their corn and soy products and wonder if they contain GMO’s. Especially the corn tortillas, which do not say made with organic corn. Now I know.
My neighbor exclusively shops there because she believes that everything they sell is organic. She will be very shocked to hear this.
Another great reason to Vote Yes on 37 and spread the word. Yes on 37. We have a right to know whats in our food.
Another look at the now infamous Stanford University study that suggests organic foods are just as safe as non-organic. They’re looking in depth at what was and was not included in the study, and how it was funded, and are pretty much turning up what I found out while doing some digging: that the scientists who conducted the study ignored significant research linking pesticide use to cancer, attention deficit disorder, etc. and that they depend on companies like Cargill and foundations like Gates (which strongly supports GMO foods) for their funding.
Note: Common Dreams is definitely NOT an unbiased source itself and normally I would not recommend it as a news source, but I did some more digging around this morning and the information about the research group’s funding and the studies they ignored are indeed true from what I’ve found.
I knew it.
Reblogging this because Spread the Word. In my opinion, too far Monsanto! You’re greedy, you’re trying to take too much. No way. No. Go eat your own GMO’s.
Monsanto is using its money and influence to push Congress to attach a rider to the 2013 Agriculture Appropriations bill that would effectively end judicial review of approvals of new genetically engineered crops.
If this rider (Sec. 733) isn’t removed, organic and non-GMO farmers will lose their access to the court system and they’ll have no recourse when the U.S. Department of Agriculture illegally approves new genetically engineered crops that threaten to contaminate their fields and seed supplies.
Monsanto’s sneak attack is a response to successful lawsuits brought by the Center for Food Safety on behalf of organic and non-GMO farmers and seed growers that have attempted to block planting of genetically engineered sugar beets and alfalfa while the USDA conducted a court-ordered review of the dangers of contamination.
A vote to remove Monsanto’s rider from the Agriculture Appropriations bill was expected this week, but now has been delayed until after Congress returns from their July 4th recess. Let’s use this time to spread the word and send tens of thousands of letters to Congress!
Fuck. Monsanto.
