I think I should check your blog more often to feel inspired about the kitchen. Your dishes look delish.

@ Sayward – Maybe You could write a post about placebo effect in the future? I think many of us would think differently after reading about how awesome it is. It’s just that the media tries so hard to vilify placebo effect and this influences our thinking.

I’m so glad that there are other people who love the placebo effect as much as me :)

@MathTutor
You’re not the only one having a horrible month/semester!

I ALSO am a big fan of the placebo affect. Heck, I don’t care if I feel better WHY I feel better. :-P

Happy World Vegan Day every one! And happy day 1 of Vegan MoFo! I love these Love Lists and I especially love that some people are going beyond 3 things. Yes! MORE LOVE!!!

@ Christa – Never heard of Jesca Hoop but I’m super curious now. I’ll check her out, thanks for the rec!

@ Rachel – Yes! RHPS is SO awesome! Is it making a comeback? I feel like I keep hearing about it these days. There’s a theatre down the street from my house that’s played it every Saturday night since the 70s or something, it’s crazy. I’ve wanted to go for years, I’m thinking I’ll go for my 30th birthday weekend. I haven’t seen Rocky in over a decade!

@ erosan – MoFo is a play on words because it stands for Month of Food, but ‘mo fo’ is also American slang for the saying “Mother F*#&er”. =)

@ Tara – Yay for Ina May! And for the whole Farm, too. What inspiring humans!

@ Laura Louise – I just have to say I’m totally with you on the Placebo affect. Why do people undervalue and vilify it so??! Gah, I could write a whole post on this. Just had to say yes! I agree! Hav fun with the dream catching. =)

@ Ria – Welcome!

@ Saina – Yay! Commence the epic November vegan-ness!!

@ MathTutor – Aw sweetie, I’m sorry you’re having such a bad month. *virtual hugs* Looking on the bright side is so important, but I know that it can be really hard to see sometimes. Remember that if nothing else, you can just put your head down and trudge through it – it WILL get better. It always does. And we care about you! Let us know if there’s anything we can do. Luck!

Happy Nov. 1!

Vegan MoFo?! Cool!

Joys:
1. Discovering this over the weekend: http://www.kansascity.com/2010/10/06/2282151/chipotle-and-jamie-oliver-expose.html
I wish I had known about it earlier!

2. Discovering I’m almost an entire size smaller due to my cleanse and wondering how I can keep it off!

3. Having the motivation/will-power/internal strength to do my cleanse.

@Rachel: I would LOVE to hear about your Rocky Horror Picture Show experience. I almost went for the first time Saturnday night.

@Erosan: Happy belated birthday!

I just found out that it’s pork month here, on the other side of the world. Eww!

1) The vegan chili I made for our Halloween party was the most-loved dish of the evening (and I was the only vegan there).
2) I have the kinds of friends who often show up to parties with vegan food because they know I’m vegan – even though I’m the only vegan there. (One dude made a GIANT platter of Brussel sprouts in a soy sauce/ginger/sesame glaze. I thought I’d died and gone to heaven.)
3) It was the kind of Halloween party where there was dancing in the living room at 2am. It was fun, and nice, and safe.
