Ever since I wrote a guest post for Zen Habits, I've discovered a bunch of Zen and minimalist blogs. While I won't be owning only 50 things anytime soon, I have found these blogs to be rather eye-opening, and at the very least, entertaining. One such blog, Zen to Fitness, ...

Ladies and gentleman, it's a sad day in NMA world. Last night, for the first time ever, my wife spit out the food I made for her. I don't remember her exact words, but it was something to the extent of "If I swallow that, I'll puke." The food in question was a piece of lightly-seared tofu, ...

What's happening, my reduced-meat-eating friends? It's ok if I call you that, right?

After reading my lament on the sponginess of tofu, my sister, who bakes in a vegetarian restaurant and knows much more about vegetarian food than I do, suggested that I try tempeh. As she put it, "People who don't like ...

You can't be a vegetarian for long without eating tofu, especially if you are trying to get lots of protein for training. And while I'm not a total vegetarian because I still eat fish, I'd like to make true vegetarian meals often so that you non-fish eaters out there will get something out of this blog. So with ...
