My name is Sarahfae and I'm a Veggie-holic

AtV Brown "Rice"

Hi guys!
In case you haven't been over to Addicted to Veggies in the last few days, I've been working on a new category of posts that I'm calling "AtV Staple Recipes". These are super yum, and almost always going to be quick and easy too. The reason for the name "Staple" is because you'll be seeing them again in the future in all types of different forms. The recipe in this entry is the recent Staple that I just put up and I'm SOSO excited to finally be able to share it. It even fooled my very skeptical husband into thinking it was the real thing (Short Grain Brown Rice). He still wouldn't try it, but smelled it, and by the look of it he said he wouldn't have thought it was raw. That's a success in my book! 

Hope you all are doing well. Things have been so so busy, and after the last two weekends of camping I'm really excited at the prospect of finally getting my new work schedule up and running solidly. Wish me luck - I need it!!

(Lipstick --- don't go camping without it!)

Ohmygod. I don't even know what to say about this one. It's creamy, it's subtle, it's warm, it has corn, and at the moment it's in my belly. 
I'm proud about this recipe on many different levels, but mainly because it's going to go on my list of "cures for cooked food cravings". While it does boast a cup of nuts (not per serving though!) I don't feel guilty in the least bit when it comes to shoveling its creamy corny goodness into my MOUTH!

Okay. Enough. Go see for yourself:

I'm off to go catch up on "The Next Food Network Star" (and maybe dream about it being me...)

Just posted the recipe, and D actually ATE this one too! What a nice way to start my morning...
back to the kitchen I go!

Might I add, every way is really really good!

The view from my kitchen window...and what I see most days when I'm not looking at my cutting board trying to avoid slicing my fingers and thumb for the umpteenth time!

No "Weekly Veggie" this week. Instead I've decided to something a little different:
Leftover Week!
Aka: Lazy Leftovers!

Ack!
I'm done early - this must mean that I'm slowly learning how to pace myself.

Beet recipes have been posted, and now I get to have a shower...
...and start thinking about the next "Weekly Veggie".

No rest for the wicked.
Hmm.

Happy Mom's day!!
Love to all of da Mommas out there - this includes those of us with Furry little four footed babies.

I'm certain that there are good days for flowers, but on most days my heart melts for uncommon romantic gestures...

Today marks the kick-off for a new project, and a lot of future work involving the marrying of three very important components:
Food, Addicted to Veggies, and AtVdailyfix.
I'd be lying if I said I'm not excited - to be honest I'm ridiculously giddy right now. Giddy is even an understatement.

Moving forward my Sundays will begin to look a lot like this:
Get out of bed by 8:30, shower, do my hair and make-up, put on a cute (but comfy) dress, and get to working in the kitchen. Today I spent a total of five and a half hours in the kitchen doing "food prep" and it was WONDERFUL! The more time I spend in my kitchen the happier I am. There is something really magical to me about spending lengthy amounts of time with the food you eat --- getting it cleaned/prepped, thinking about the nutrients, listening to good music and bouncing around...it only deepens the value of food, at least in my opinion.
Granted, it does feel really nice to sit down in the sun room and enjoy a big mason jar full of sun tea with the puppies joining me of course...


So with that, I beg you:
Please stay tuned to Addicted to Veggies and/or AtVdailyfix. I'm about to announce the first "Weekly Veggie" which will spark a whole bunch of veggie-related web activity on my part. It's going to be so much fun, I can barely contain myself!

xoxo~
