WW Product Review: Enjoy Life Vanilla Honey Graham cookies
On a recent road trip, I picked up some new-to-me boxed foods and realized that I should share them with our readers. Given Denise’s corn allergy, I’m the only one buying food in boxes anymore, so I’m going to try a little harder to review things as I find them. Bear with us. I…

WW: Cookbook Review, "Decadent Gluten-Free Vegan Baking" by Cara Reed
I bought Cara Reed’s cookbook Decadent Gluten-Free Vegan Baking a few months ago. Cara is the genius/madwoman behind the Fork and Beans blog (the woman made her own Cheerios, seriously).

A few weeks ago, we went to a Science in the Pub lecture in Manchester on the Science of Chocolate. It was cool — we are both pretty nerdy, and science of…

Whatever Wednesday: Unpaid Product Review, El Recreo Estate Coffee
Mary Kate’s Take: Earlier this year, Denise and I went to the very first New Hampshire Veg Fest, held at Manchester Community College. It was a small, but promising, event, with a lot of local vendors. Between the two of us, Denise and I weren’t able to taste too much — many vegetarian and vegan…

Product Review: Beanitos Chips
So if you’ve been following along, you heard about my (Denise’s) corn allergy positive scratch test result and my corresponding food elimination diet and challenge confirmation. Very, very annoying. Because that means no tortilla chips to go with my salsa or to make nachos, and no taco shells. Again, very, very annoying. A couple of…
