My boo!Made this for myself last night after buying a bunch of kale on a whim at the Civic Center farmer’s market, then finding that Jenny posted a recipe for Wilted Kale Salad on Vegansaurus. It was fate! This is wilted kale with “chik’n strips” from Trader Joe’s tossed with balsamic vinegar.
Writing that description right now made me feel so Food Network, my years of laying on the couch watching that channel have finally paid off. All-in-all, great post nap eats, if I do say so myself.
Today I bought myself the Skinnygirl California White Wine. To be totally honest, I don’t really like spending twelve dollars on gimmicks geared towards selling shit to women, but considering I am closer to thirty than not & I refuse to do cardio yet have a strong addiction to cheese, I decided it may be worth it since it’s only one hundred calories per serving. The problem with that is that “a serving” is five ounces. First of all, that’s a joke cause who the fuck just drinks five ounces of wine? I don’t know anyone who doesn’t at least have seven. Secondly, this means that this 750ml bottle has about 2500 calories which means… holy shit if this is the “skinny” wine, that means I’m consuming like 5000 calories a day in wine usually?! IS THAT WHAT THIS MEANS?!
Yes, that is what this means.
I drink twice my daily caloric intake in wine.
I am no better than the assholes chugging Flaming Hot Cheetos outside the gas station.
Do I give a shit?
NOPE.
Tasting Notes: The wine is primarily a chardonnay [BARF] & pinot grigio blend. It’s fruit forward & you can smell it in the bouquet, but it’s not as dry as most whites & what Bethenny describes as a “lingering finish”, I call “fucking sugary”.
Ross Test: Passed, but make sure it’s super cold.

I may have gone a little TMI with this post, but now that I’ve been writing for Vegansaurus a little over a year, I feel more self-assured in writing how I actually talk. Let’s go to Vegan Drinks tonight! I, however, will not be indulging in any fried food.
Let’s do this, peeps. I’m feeling really confident this week, so maybe I’ll talk to strangers! I think it’s called networking? But I probably won’t; I like people to come to me so I can act awkward and blush a lot, all the while being a little bit overexcited. Winning mix, right? Let’s hang.
SF Vegan Drinks happens tonight, Thursday, May 31, from 6 to 8 p.m. at
I love the education connection commercials so much. So my buddies Steve and Benji helped me make this. Steve wrote, Benji directed. Now we love this one too!
Fuck, yes.
I noticed I’ve been losing weight. Obviously I’m hosting a parasite!
Actually, in order to save money, I’ve been walking from work (SOMA) to home (Upper Haight). I get hit on by so many crackheads, my self-esteem is soaring this week!
Plus, Source is going to be on Check, Please next week, and I feel like I should put forth some effort, so if I ever watch it, I won’t want to flush my head down the toilet. My boss asked me to please do my hair and wear presentable clothes. What? He’s not a fan of the puffy eyed, bed-head, maybe-I’m-wearing-the-same-clothes-as-yesterday-AND-slept-in-them look? Unbelievable.
I found a Cafe Gratitude shirt in my closet and decided to put it on. First time I’ve ever worn it!
Did you know I used to work there? In order to preserve any integrity about this subject, I shall remain mum. Except to say if you ever see some hippie wearing one of these in public, run don’t walk the other way! #LandmarkForum
I am watching “Your Highness”. I was going to watch it earlier, but I passed out cold on the couch after putting it in the DVD player. That is beside the point.
The movie is awesome, which leaves me angered and offended no one had informed me sooner. Also, I don’t think one review I read did this movie ANY justice!
After he got shit all over himself, he decided to curl up with me. We’re about to watch Your Highness so I can teach him the wonder of Zooey Deschanel and James Franco. (Taken with Instagram at Haight Ashbury)
New fave snack combo! The crackers are low carb, low fat and contains only traces of gluten! Lol, and they still manage to be super tasty. (Taken with Instagram at Rainbow Grocery)
