Kim’s Pinterest Project #6

Latest installment where I actually make something from my Pinterest board. I made this for picnic at Louisiana Swamp Romp at Wolf Trap this past Sunday. I was able to keep Gladware container hot with newspaper and this hot/cold gel pack I found at Bed, Bath and Beyond. This has a lot of chopping of veggies but otherwise very simple to make. It was very tasty! I kept simple and added some mushrooms and vegan sausage. Recipe is from the blog Namely Marly.

Sweet and Sticky Cashew Tofu

Latest in my Pinterest project where I am actually making some of the recipes I’m pinning. The recipe for this can be found at the blog Olives for Dinner.

This was OK but sort of disappointing ( I thought a little bland). Also don’t like recipes where you you need to remove items from the pan and then return them later in the cooking process ( creates a lot of extra dirty dishes, I’m a lazy cook). I don’t see me repeating this one.

Mushroom Paprikash

Latest installment where I actually make something I’ve pinned. This is a recipe from Vegetarian Times, you will need to make some vegan subs (Tofutti sour cream and serve over rice or vegan friendly noodles). I had regular paprika so I added a few drops of liquid smoke (otherwise I thought it was a little bland). Super easy to make and hearty!

It’s time to get pissed. The U.S. law that would turn Google, Facebook, and Twitter into legally immune government spies just passed the House.
We expected CISPA to pass; that’s why this spring, we’re going to organize the largest online privacy protest in history to make sure CISPA is gone for good.
And, in response to Rep. Mike Rogers’ accusation that CISPA opponents are just “14 year-old tweeter[s] in the basement”, we thought we’d also challenge Rep. Rogers to get on live national television and debate a 14 year-old in a basement on CISPA. The search for the 14 year-old begins. Are you or do you know a 14 year-old who could totally school a congressman on this issue?
This bill affects everyone — not just U.S. citizens. Anyone with a Facebook account could now have their data shipped directly to the U.S. government. That’s why Internet users overwhelmingly oppose this bill. Over 1.5 million people signed petitions against it. But Congress didn’t listen.
Does this remind you of something? Yep, this is the exact position we were in with SOPA last year. Then the Internet rose up and we made history with the SOPA strike.
Join the largest online privacy protest in history to make sure CISPA goes the same route as SOPA and doesn’t become the law that breaks the 4th Amendment. Are you in?
CISPA threatens our most basic rights. Privacy is important not just for our security but for our rights to freedom of expression. The giant tech companies that stood with Internet users against SOPA are not going to help us this time (but some of the large sites like Mozilla, Imgur, and Reddit are all against CISPA and we love them).
Only a massive grassroots outcry will stop this bill. We’re starting to build the tools. But we need your help.

Sensible footwear, people. Is it too much to ask?

Obviously not practical footwear but for pure design and whimsy some of these are very clever!


Kim’s Pinterest Project: #3

Peanut Stew

This is the 3rd installment of my project where I am trying to actually make the recipes I pin. This is from the blog Vegan Stoner. I used a 15 oz can of garbanzo beans, a 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes, a whole small onion, 1/2 cup of crunchy peanut butter, the thyme and some crushed red pepper flakes (some sriracha would have been good too!). This was really easy to make and very good!


Kim’s Pinterest Project-#2

Roasted Asparagus Salad with Chickpeas and Potatoes.

This is number 2 in my series of making recipes that I’ve saved on Pinterest. This recipe can be found at Fatfree Vegan Kitchen. I made this recipe twice, once for a party and then a week later since it was so delicious and easy to make. Good hot or cold.


Kim’s Pinterest Project: I have set a goal to regularly make a recipe that I have pinned. Up first: Tofu with Spinach and Chickpeas. Recipe is here: http://bit.ly/10k9IOi This was pretty good, I served over brown rice.
