Third Trimester
It feels funny to be writing this blog post while Calvin lays on my chest . . . he will already be 1 month old tomorrow. I wish I wrote this post when I was pregnant because it would have been funny to look back on. Similar to how you forget the pain of giving…

Second Trimester

I guess I wasn’t in too much of a hurry to write this post seeing as how I have been in the third trimester for 5 weeks now. But, it makes sense because second trimester is a blessed time.

I truly loved cooking a Vegan Thanksgiving for my family . . . and I can’t wait to cook for them again in a couple weeks for Christmas ❤ I felt so much joy from everyone loving my cooking, and me knowing that none of our food contained animal products. My grandparents absolutely loved this…

Stuffed Seitan Roast

It’s been 22 days since my last post! I finally feel like I’m back in my routine after being on vacation and then celebrating Thanksgiving in Vermont! I had some exciting cooking “firsts” happen for me while I’ve been away . . . I cooked two Vegan Thanksgivings and made homemade seitan! So proud of myself 🙂…

Quinoa Chili

I’m one of those crazy people who will eat chili & soups all year long (even as I sit in our apartment dying of heat) ! I know I will be making this recipe many times during the Fall / Winter ahead . . . & I bet you will too ! This one is…
