Just in case my “midwest” knuckle tattoos (complete with a tiny ear of corn on one finger) and the tattoo of a Chicago style hotdog on my shoulder didn’t tip you off, I would like to officially disclose my status as a Midwesterner right now. I grew...
Aaaand we’re back with another “I can’t believe it’s raw, vegan and gluten-free” recipe from Emily von Euw’s book Rawsome Vegan Baking: An Un-cookbook for Raw, Gluten-Free, Vegan, Beautiful and Sinfully Sweet Cookies, Cakes, Bars...
I was lucky enough to receive an advanced copy of Emily von Euw’s book Rawsome Vegan Baking: An Un-cookbook for Raw, Gluten-Free, Vegan, Beautiful and Sinfully Sweet Cookies, Cakes, Bars and Cupcakes earlier this week and my mouth has been watering ever since!...
One thing that irritates me about Pinterest is how impossible it is to track down the original source for ideas you find pinned. For instance, a few days ago one of my friends pinned a photo of raw, vegan cookie dough bites with the caption, “OMG, really tastes...
August was bonkers – I wrapped up SugarSlam III with a bit of controversy, headed to Portland for the International Food Blogger Conference and then to St. Louis for my cousin’s wedding. As soon as I got back Teno started first grade, and then the Chicago...

I’m not one to push my beliefs on anyone, I think you should eat what makes you feel good and that’s all. That being said, I’ve been a vegetarian and on-again/off-again vegan for 14+ years and I’ve done my fair share of eye rolling at the...
Note: These 28 Day Healthy Eating Challenge posts tend to be part recipe, part journal. So if you’re just here for the recipe , feel free to skip all my yackity shmakity. When we were teenagers, my friend Jenny and I traveled to San Francisco with her parents....
When I told Teno I was going to post his recipe on my website he said, “You have a WEBSITE?” That’s right kid, The Electric Company, Word World and your mom all have websites. Pretty impressive if you’re a four year old. He didn’t think...
One of the perks of being Lady Destroy is getting a peek at all the newest baking books and having anyone give a damn about my opinion. I recently reviewed a copy of Crazy About Cookies: 300 Scrumptious Recipes for Every Occasion & Craving and thought I’d...
