carrot kate

I guess I was yearning for nostalgia, and maybe something a little spicy to feel cozy. The carrot cake is really so underrated. The bane of cakes as a child, and then held in high regard later on as a "healthy" alternative in adulthood. Lets really not fool anyone here. Most of them are equally as laden with harmful ingredients…

Fig and Walnut Pizza

Pizza, pizza. Nope this aint no little ceasars, its lil kates. And yeah, I am on a pizza train. Why not I say. Its the talk of the town these days. This pie, dare I say, is sex on a slice. Sophisticated, satisfying, and just, yeah, sexy. Gone are the days of the non cheese like cheese substance, I'm bringing…

Sweat…Vancity

I remember a time, not too long ago actually, where I felt so incredibly grateful for sweat. There is something about that feeling that when your body says ack! I've had it, I've got to let something go, and so it does. Maybe it's so ingrained in me, having spent years in the studio from such a young age, age…

parsley pesto

Green on greens on green. I might even go so far as to say green is the new black? Interestingly enough, the only "colour" I do dare but wear, is often times a shade green. I digress, K so I mentioned last week how parsley is such an undervalued herb/green in our diet even though it is packed with antioxidants…

coconuts…. getting greasy

CHANGE:// how we see fat Is there any other nut more versatile? I think not. I mean with a coconut you have a bowl, a drink, a effing bra for crying out loud. And I haven't even got started on what's on inside. Cause mama was right, it's on the inside that really counts. K, so there are a million…

Raw-ish Rebel Fig Tart

Figs are a thing of beauty. Complex in taste and texture, nutrient dense, exotic and ridiculously good for you. Oh and they just happen to be in season. More reason to love seasonal eating. So I got my bounty, when visiting Kirk & Alece's backyard. We took to the back alley, and so beholds the black market figs. All it…

the rainbow connection

CHANGE:/ how we look at rainbows   You all know I have a fondness for the little green frog, his banjo, and that song he sings. It came to mind though a lot for me this past weekend. This weekend, rainbows were the flags that were being waved. With pride, with love. To be honest, I think I have taken…

Vulnerability

CHANGE :// how we see and react to vulnerability, and what we do with the result The V word. Yeah, it is as uncomfortable as the other V word that might come to mind. There is no escaping that, the uncomfortable, that is. So I feel we are, "we" as a society, taking steps to embrace what vulnerability is. What…

what would eckhart eat?

I first read Eckhart Tolle's book, The Power Of Now, close to 10 years ago. I recall how it hugely improved upon barriers in my life that I was facing at that time. They were not profound in nature, but I knew that what I was able to put into play, worked, and was in line with where I wanted…

nuthin but a g thing

I feel like, and thankfully so perhaps, that we live in a society of "grateful" people. The thing is, do we reaaalllly know what we are talking about when we use that word? I mean not to jump the gun, I'm sure many do, but I can only share with you my opinion. Are we really that grateful after all?…
