Kristen's Blog: January 2013

http://kknouff.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

One Year, 2 Months and 6 Days Later. My dad died a little over a year ago and, far and away, it was the most difficult thing I've ever navigated. I feel blessed that my first major tragedy arrived at 30 years old. For so many, it happens so often and so early. But, that's for another blog. I still miss the heck outta my dad. He was so great.he just really was a great man, father, friend, mentor, tax adviser math tutor, softball coach, etc. Faith- help me get through things right now, too. Yup, I like...

Kristen's Blog: The first of many posts in 2013....and other goals I might not achieve

http://kknouff.blogspot.com/2013/01/the-first-of-many-posts-in-2013and.html

The first of many posts in 2013.and other goals I might not achieve. Well, my dear aunt requested that I increase my blogs to something better than 2 or 3/year, which didn't seem too tall an order to fill.and, I like my aunt a lot. So here we are. At the beginning of each year, I think we all, as individuals, tend to be a bit nostalgic, a bit hopeful, a bit self-loathing and a bit arrogant. Otherwise, why would such a large percentage of us think that this. So that's where I'll start. 9 I found ways to i...

Joe, of course, was wonderful. Hugs, offers of hot tea and the space and freedom to know that crying is perfectly healthy. My faith be stronger than ever? People sometimes identify moments of struggle in their life as times when they felt God was distant, and I don't want to disclaim their real emotions or anything, but I might suggest that the experience of a person's death ought to cause us to grow stronger in our faith, and here's why:. Effect on Jesus' death on the cross, and zero. Now, I want to bac...

cooking for myself: quick and tasty veg food: March 2008

http://cookingformyself.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Monday, March 10, 2008. Crockpots make ugly but tasty food. This recipe was inspired by fresh from the vegetarian slow-cooker. A book by the amazing robin robertson, who also wrote the vegetarian meat and potatoes cookbook that i LOVE. and vegan planet. and lots of other books. Warning: there is no picture on this entry cos for reals, crockpots make things indiscernible enough that i think my cell phone could not capture anything. but i promise, the appearance is made up for by the genius taste. I ended ...

cooking for myself: quick and tasty veg food: August 2007

http://cookingformyself.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html

Friday, August 24, 2007. What i have learned so far. I have strategized a lot about how to make myself more likely to cook nourishing food for myself and not constantly want to order out or just eat things which will not meet my needs (like all fro yo, all the time). these are my time-saving ideas to date:. When i get home, put my frozen foods into (reusable) freezer bags, so i can just unseal and reseal them and not stress about time as much when cooking ("omg, i have to open this bag? When there are sa...

cooking for myself: quick and tasty veg food: seitan!

http://cookingformyself.blogspot.com/2007/09/seitan.html

Saturday, September 22, 2007. Ok, y'all, i made seitan today- 3 pots of it, for me and e, which will be plenty to last for a month or two (i hope! I do get a little over-zealous with seitan though). It was ridiculously easy, so i thought i would share with you. this does not. Mean that i do not want to have seitan-making parties with those of you i have discussed them with! It just means i can tide myself over until they happen. To make seitan, you need the following:. I used my kitchenaid, of course!

cooking for myself: quick and tasty veg food: June 2009

http://cookingformyself.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

Monday, June 29, 2009. This weekend's cooking projects. So this weekend, s and i made three food projects in one morning. each one was so quick and easy, but i didn't actually make them all. no problem. i will talk about them all anyway, as if i had more of a hand than may be technically true. Last weekend, we made some arugula pesto- arugula, sauteed garlic, almonds, parm, salt, pepper- and discovered the total genius. That is the kitchenaid food mill attachment. Cilantro pesto, mmmmmm. Food project #3 ...

cooking for myself: quick and tasty veg food: garden-fresh salad!

http://cookingformyself.blogspot.com/2009/06/garden-fresh-salad.html

Monday, June 22, 2009. I'm not sure why this non-recipe is what gets me back to posting, as it is far from the most exciting thing i have made recently- though since saturday's sour cherry freezer jam experiment was well documented, i may post on that also. i think it's just exciting: lettuce from the garden! Strawberries from the farmer's market! A new and tasty but super-easy tempeh marinade! Went to the garden and picked lettuce and the last couple of chive blossoms i could find. Then i grabbed some a...
