We all have incredibly busy schedules, and that means little time to do everything. Less time to eat, less time to sleep, and less time to even think straight! Between fixing breakfast, packing lunches, and soccer/ballet/piano practice, sometimes the only dinner option is fast food. Yuck! As a lover of all things food, I find this unacceptable. Having less time to cook shouldn't mean sacrificing taste or nutrition. Take it from me, Webmistress Laura B.!

Happy Cinco de Mayo! It's almost the 5th of May, and it's time to live it up! Cinco de Mayo isn't Mexican Independence Day; it's actually an unofficial holiday that celebrates the Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla. While Cinco de Mayo has limited significance nationwide in Mexico, the date is heavily observed in the United States. How is it observed, exactly? Oh, just with eating, drinking, and dancing in the streets until all hours. 

Here are some of our favorites:

What is the meaning of life? Is there life on other planets? Why is brunch the best meal? These are questions we may never know the answers to. Okay, I'll take a guess on the brunch one. It's something that usually happens on weekends (yay!), after having slept in (yay!) and involves combining the best of the best from both breakfast and lunch (yay!).

Although I didn't grow up in a religious family, Easter was always a favorite holiday. That's because it meant candy. Loads and loads of candy. Easter egg hunts, candy baskets, and chocolate bunnies. Becoming vegan doesn't mean giving up all those delightful treats, it just means getting more creative. In addition to making (and eating!) all manners of delicious candies, you can get creative with Easter breads and dishes. And what of Passover?
