To celebrate Making Love In The Kitchen’s first birthday, the bestest posts of the last year are getting another turn in the spotlight. These were selected either because they had the most traffic or should have. While together we stroll down memory lane, I will be away on a farm with no computer! We’ll chat [...]

Happy Day 2 of 5 Days Vegan. Today I would like to address this issue of soy. It’s a hotty tomale topic so feel free to disagree… just remember what Byron Katie says about defense so don’t expect me to battle you back.

If you are a vegan based on the principles outlined in such poppy [...]

That is pretty cool. For the next week, I will be sharing some of the main benefits of transitioning to a more plant-based diet.

Now of [...]

When I posted photos of my shiny happy completed kitchen, I received a comment asking if my fridge is always so organized. A week later, I would have to say yes. Yes it is. I like going to the market, I like buying pretty vegetables and I like getting them all ready to eat and [...]

What are kelp noodles? Can anyone tell me? I bought half a dozen packages of them after a friend recommended them to me. They are absolutely an awesomely odd texture somewhere between cucumber and rice noodles and apparently are all raw.  There is no cooking involved in the preparation, a little rinsing and just like [...]

I have heard it said that raw foodists tend towards the frail, spacey side. Not so my friends. Not so. It is possible that I have never met anyone who radiates health, vigor, energy and aliveness quite like David Wolfe.

I spent this past weekend in Haliburton playing in the woods with David Wolfe, a world [...]

Here in Toronto, we are on day 17 of a garbage strike. I know what you are thinking and you are right. Peeeeee-eeeeew. Thankfully our summer has been remarkably chilly so it is not as bad as it could have been.

Now, not picking up garbage, really doesn’t bother me so much. I fill one grocery [...]

Up here in Canada, we wait all winter for summer and then summer just zips on by and we wonder where it went.  We are too busy running hither and tither to take the time to smell the roses (or little purple weedy flowers) and pick the goodness from the earth while abundant and ripe. [...]

Green Kitchens and A Naked Winner

fridgecrop

Since I couldn’t locate the photos I have of Vanessa sleeping naked, I had to use the adorable one of her sitting in her empty fridge.

Last Saturday, as part of Green Week, I reviewed the wonderfully hilarious memoir Sleeping Naked Is Green,  by world renowned (she really is)green author and naked sleeper Vanessa Farquharson. Cost [...]
