Cooking in Bushwick

Posted on November 17, 2012 by jess sconé • 2 Comments

While I was on hiatus, I did a lot of cooking at my sister’s apartment in Bushwick, Brooklyn. My sister works a ton, but was able to take some time off while I was visiting (and hey, thanks for something, Sandy), and it was so much freaking fun planning and cooking meals together in her … Continue reading »

Product Review: Vege USA

Posted on August 25, 2012 by jess sconé • 2 Comments

It’s been a tremendously long time since I’ve done a product review. I simply don’t have the time or interest for them very much, and very few offers legitimately pique my interest. This is my space, and it’s not a grocery aisle. I mean, as a vegan blogger, there are only so many times you … Continue reading »

I may have spent the entire month of October barely doing more than copy/pasting and clicking upload over here, and shaking a few cocktails over this way, but that doesn’t mean I wasn’t cooking. Discussing my culinary tales was simply pushed to the side by a bunch of furry animals. We’ve all been there. My … Continue reading »

Tis the Tofurkey Day MoFo: Kabocha Squash Pot Pie, Thai Iced Tea Pumpkin Pie & Dinner with Friends

Posted on November 29, 2010 by jess sconé • 14 Comments

I may not really celebrate the holidays, but I do celebrate proudly made from scratch dishes, friends, wine, and the warm wonder that is a multi-course, cruelty-free thanksgiving dinner with said friends in a city we’ve made our home. Aww. Commence warm and fuzzies and vegan food with part of the spread: My contributions to the dinner … Continue reading »
