Food Inventory: What’s in My Cupboards
The last time I reorganized my food cupboards was about two years ago! Yesterday I tidied them up and took stock. When I started eating vegetarian, I thought I would want a huge array of dried beans and grains on

Incidental Reading – The Results Are In!
I was curious how much reading I do every week that is NOT books. As I mentioned in last week’s post, every time I see print, I can’t help but read it. How much of my reading is “unconscious”? So
