The main piece is the food processor. Then there’s a bowl, spoon, and bowl scraper. In the background, you can [...]

This was supposed to be a raw vegan recipe for fudge but it should be titled, “If all else fails, follow the instructions”. Someday, when I get more really raw cashews, I’ll try it again. Until then, I think we can learn as much, if not more, from our failures as we can our successes. [...]

I can’t agree on that one but they are sweet and good and, if you add a dash of vanilla, it might more resemble one. To learn how to make one, press on! The only ingredients are a good, ripe cantaloupe and [...]

As promised, I made salsa for DD and merm (and me) the day after they arrived. DD grabbed merm’s camera and documented the process. You can find the recipe here. I scald the tomatoes very briefly to make it easy to peel them: Using my bamboo cutting board and knife, I rough-chop the tomatoes: The [...]
