Fall is becoming my favorite time of the year because of all the food festivals! This was my 3rd year attending the Bethlehem VegFest, and it sounds silly, but walking around all the vegan vendors and animal rights groups brings me so much joy. This was the largest amount of people I've seen here, and … Continue reading Bethlehem VegFest 2015

Raw Review – Raw Rev Glo Bars
I recently got a sample of Raw Rev's Glo Bars and I'm pretty much drooling just thinking about them. I have always liked other Raw Revolution bars, and these have a bit more protein. These come in 3 flavors: Mixed Nuts, Caramel & Sea Salt Creamy Peanut Butter & Sea Salt Peanut Butter, Dark Chocolate & … Continue reading Raw Review – Raw Rev Glo Bars
NYC Weekend
A few weekends ago I took a trip to New York City. I really wanted to visit my friend Mallorie's popup shop, and other than that, I basically just planned to eat my weight in delicious NYC food. When I got into the city, the first thing I did was head to a raw vegan … Continue reading NYC Weekend
My Raw Vegan Pilgrimage to Pure Food and Wine
I've been a fan of One Lucky Duck and Pure Food and Wine for years, ever since I discovered raw food-ism. There is a high-end, gourmet feel to their brand, and I think it's well deserved. I've ordered from the site and visited the takeout bar a bunch of times, but I finally made it … Continue reading My Raw Vegan Pilgrimage to Pure Food and Wine
NuZest Vegan Protein {Review}
I'm a bit of a sucker for vegan protein powders. I started with whey (yuck) before I was vegan because I thought I needed more protein and kind of fell for the "healthy" marketing. Now, I realize that I get enough protein in my regular diet, but I like to make shakes for breakfast because they're … Continue reading NuZest Vegan Protein {Review}
Weekend Update: Birthday Edition
Saturday was my birthday and yesterday was my government birthday*. The celebrations started on Thursday with a trip to Vegan Treats in Bethlehem, about 2 hours away. We got a chocolate encased chocolate chip cheesecake on a stick, a soft serve ice cream cone, 2 cannolis to take home, and a cannoli cake for Saturday. … Continue reading Weekend Update: Birthday Edition
DC Vegfest 2014
This past Saturday was the DC Vegfest sponsored by Compassion Over Killing. I only realized it the Monday before, so it was a wonderful surprise and a totally spur of the moment trip. The day was a total blast and even though it was a bit hot, the weather was beautiful. It's been announced that there … Continue reading DC Vegfest 2014
Bethlehem VegFest 2014
It's been a week since this year's Bethlehem VegFest and I'm already excited about next year. Just like last year, being in a place where you know everything is vegan and nothing is off limits is an amazing feeling. There was no walking around looking for a place that sold only salads or veggies, or possibly a … Continue reading Bethlehem VegFest 2014
Recipe: Raw Chocolate Cupcakes with Vanilla Frosting
These cupcakes are incredibly chewy and moist. They taste like a traditional brownie, but there's no sugar or flour, and they're completely raw. The icing is just as rich and delicious, and it only contains cashews and agave (or date paste). Chocolate Cupcakes with Vanilla Frosting Recipe Type: Vegan, Raw Author: Christine Ingredients Cupcake 1 cup dates + … Continue reading Recipe: Raw Chocolate Cupcakes with Vanilla Frosting
Recipe: Peanut Butter Protein Cookies
These cookies are really delicious and they're healthy! They're a cross between an oatmeal raisin cookie and a peanut butter cookie. You can add in raisins and chocolate chips if you like, or leave them out if you don't. There's no added sugar in these. The sweetness comes from the banana. I prefer to use … Continue reading Recipe: Peanut Butter Protein Cookies
