What’s up nerds! It’s been a while, but I’m back! This time around, with all of the side projects that I have going on (like the fantastic podcast Online Warriors), I’m not going to make any schedules or set myself up to fail. However, I’m hoping I can get a variety of articles and content up whenever I have some free time. Recently, in my … Continue reading Recipe Review: HelloFresh Buttered-Up Steak

Even though romaine lettuce is now safe to eat again, this … Continue reading Meal-Talk Monday: Sweet and Savory Kale Salad
I am a huge fan of quick and easy dinners. I also like to eat vegan when possible – I’m not a full vegan, but after reading a lot of different studies (which I’ll undoubtedly touch on at some point in this blog’s lifetime) I’ve been trying to cut back on some of my meat and animal-product intake. This recipe checks all of my boxes. … Continue reading Meal-Talk Monday: Peanut Pad Thai
