Plant Based Pad Thai
Noodles are one of the greatest culinary treasures around in my humble opinion.

Eating Vegan in Bucharest
My husband has often joked over the years that the national vegetable of Romania is pork, a fun little quip backed up by his parents, family friends and the spread on the table for any given occasion. There is a maximum of mean–specifically pork–and cheese on the table, plus bread. What is sadly lacking is…

Creamy Potato & Beer Stew
It’s no secret to anyone paying attention that my household is solidly a soup household. We don’t object to soup and there’s no such thing as too many days with soup on the menu, which is a good thing since the weather has already dipped into the negatives over the past few days. The negatives…
