I want to belong to the living

nobody@vox.com(heartshapedsky) — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 16:54:47 +0000

Life affirming. That was my thought leaving yoga on Monday. I saw two people walking in to their power vinyasa class and their bodies appeared to radiate to me, "we are life affirming." I think that's what yoga, exercise, sunshine, and vegan food ...

Giving mother nature a kick to her nethers.

nobody@vox.com(elbradenabra) — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 19:47:27 +0000

I have a lot of good qualities! At least, that's what twenty-two years of after school specials have lead me to believe. I'm not racist, I don't steal from the elderly, I stay away from the (bad) drugs, and I like to recycle even when it's the...

nobody@vox.com(Singing Horse) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 15:09:11 +0000

Time really flies. It's the middle of July now. I haven't been blogging much lately. I have a very good excuse this time. I was transitioning to Ubuntu Hardy (a very popular Linux distro) in the past two weeks. I was really busy configuring m...

Day 660 (Y2/D294): Who can break away to cook dinner when there's a John Hughes movie marathon?

nobody@vox.com(Elisa) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 14:30:10 +0000

My silly S.O. Thinking I was going to cook dinner. Just because he's sick. And because, let's face it, I usually do. Couldn't he appreciate that watching Pretty in Pink and Some Kind of Wonderful was much more important. Plus I was busy, laptop on...

Day 659 (Y2/D293): The Clean Out Your Fridge Stew

nobody@vox.com(Elisa) — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 14:22:29 +0000

Why mess with a good thing? If you're willing to dirty up a pan (and let's face it, we all know I'm not always ready to do such a thing) then you're ready to make a good old-fashioned clean-out-your-fridge stew. And I've been making those a lot. ...

Day 658 (Y2/D292): It's good to live in California

nobody@vox.com(Elisa) — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 17:14:50 +0000

Where the fruits and vegetables are so bountiful, and not so crazy expensive you can't afford them even when they're bountiful. That is all I wanted to say...carry on. Breakfast: Soy Latte Organic Corn Flakes with Vegan Sugar and Rice Milk Soy Y...

nobody@vox.com(Elisa) — Fri, 11 Jul 2008 14:32:29 +0000

So, BlogHer is next week. Which tempts me to simply say: "Move along, nothing to see here, come back the week of July 21st...or even the week of the 28th." But in true obsessive blogger fashion I can't resist trying to keep up!! So, I have a qu...

Four more vegan foods down....

nobody@vox.com(Candace & Matt) — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 01:28:35 +0000

Today, I tried three new vegan foods: a "cheese", a "sugar" and a "butter". Yesterday we tried "ice cream" Cheese Cheater Follow Your Heart "cheddar cheese" MELTS like real cheese. It also stinks. Matt walked in to the house 10 min after I'd made...

but, what can I eat?

nobody@vox.com(Candace & Matt) — Wed, 09 Jul 2008 01:31:59 +0000

Just finished reading Skinny Bitch. I really, REALLY recommend it. If you can't, I'll sum it up for you: Food is Poison. Yep. Basically, it goes in to detail with vulgar language (I love me some good, offensive tongue) about all the ways in whi...

A little vegan never hurt anyone.

nobody@vox.com(Vivren) — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 23:08:35 +0000

I am a shameless carnivore, but that doesn't mean I want to try to act responsibly once in a while. Mat and Nat are having a huge sale on their vegan wallets, purses and clutches. You should check them out! I really like this little clutch and ...

Day 652 (Y2/D286): Lazy day, if you count working on the couch instead of at my desk Lazy

nobody@vox.com(Elisa) — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 17:00:08 +0000

It was a lazy day. I lounged on the couch all day (with my laptop.) But I did even take a nap...wile the S.O. was playing Rock band, if you can believe it. Got a lot of work done. Whipped a couple of yummy hodge-podge meals too. Loves me that Tra...

nobody@vox.com(Elisa) — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 16:44:31 +0000

You may have noticed I'm a creature of habit. I hope I haven't just started a new one. Now, whenever I got to Whole Foods down my way in the South Bay and have need of a dessert, I pick up the Black China Bakery vegan chocolate cake. It's dense a...

Day 649 (Y2/D283): 12 hours in front of a screen

nobody@vox.com(Elisa) — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 16:34:30 +0000

Yes, Wednesday I spent 12 hours, literally, sitting at my computer, barely getting up to go to the bathroom and fix some food and occasionally take a phone call from my couch, not my chair. Before you lecture me: Yes, I realize that is bad for me...

Vegan: Animals Over Humans?

nobody@vox.com(Joshua Judd) — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 23:29:32 +0000
