Pictures of my food: Hybrid Cabbage Pasta Edition
This is one of my favorite dinners. It’s a hybrid take on a Central European dish called łazanki z kapustą in Polish (I’ve also had it in Hungary as káposztás tészta). My innovation is to add a crapton of sausage … Continue reading

The Fifth Kind (Revised Vegan Taxonomy: MOUTH)
I’ve decided to revise my preliminary taxonomy for vegans, both in the interests of completeness (I didn’t mention the fifth kind of vegan the first time around but now I’m ready). Also I have a better mnemonic device now MOUTH. … Continue reading
