I seem to work in progressions or themes in my cooking. No sooner did I taste the Chubby Hubby Tofu Mousse, did I realize I wanted to test out tofu in its ice cream making abilities.
The chocolate peanut butter mousse, Chubby Hubby Goodness, is a variation on a ubiquitous tofu mousse recipe [...]
I just read of a great version of the infamous tofu mousse in the latest Vegetarian Times. Unfortunately their website doesn’t seem to list the recipe (doh!), and their search engine is rather lame. However it was a pretty easy recipe to remember. I haven’t made it up yet- but plan on [...]

This all makes for interesting potlucks in this town…

I’ve overdosed on honey in the past. This was during my make bath salts and make shampoo phase of my life. I was buying essential oils to scent soaps with and also bought a small vial of honey perfume. I used it in honey oatmeal foot scrub and honey milk baths… and [...]
Are you ready for a Sugar High Friday Moment? If you are abstaining from sweets, now is your chance to click away. It’s not often that I encourage my readers to stray, but if your eating habits are… say, elsewhere, I’ll allow it this once.
From the Food Pimp on High comes this month’s [...]

This weekend launches Paper Chef #7, requiring participants to create a dish containing: medjool dates, honey, buttermilk and eggs.
