Recently my husband and I rode over to some friends houses and then we all spent some time exploring Ithaca together. We made stops at Stewart Park, Ithaca Falls and even had lunch at Angel Hearts Diner. It was a beautiful day. Mostly we wanted to attend a vigil for George Floyd, to add ourContinue reading “Ride to Ithaca”

Visiting New York State Parks
A few years ago I decided to make an effort to visit every state park within the Finger Lakes region of New York State. Well I have visited some of them but still have not completed this goal. This year husband and I purchased the New State Empire pass so that we could try toContinue reading “Visiting New York State Parks”
Ride around Otisco Lake
In an effort to get more motorcycling experience (and for fun), husband and I decided to ride around all of the Finger Lakes. Some of them may be too far for us, but we might find a way to achieve this goal. To start off we explored the roads around Otisco Lake and stopped atContinue reading “Ride around Otisco Lake”
Exploring Fillmore Glen State Park
Recently, my husband and a friend rode our motorcycles to Fillmore Glen State park. I have been hiking in the park several times, but I can’t say as I have ever ridden a motorcycle or even driven my car this far in. Usually we park at the first parking lot and hike in. This timeContinue reading “Exploring Fillmore Glen State Park”
Ride to Ithaca
I rode with my husband and a friend to Ithaca on May 25th. It was an extra warm and sunny day. One of our favorite places to eat, Angel Hearts Diner reopened for curbside pickup and I was excited to be able to go back again. A year ago I would have said Ithaca isContinue reading “Ride to Ithaca”

On a recent visit to Trader Joe’s I discovered the everything bagel seasoning blend. I decided it was a great excuse to try making my own bagels! I used the recipe from Vegan Brunch by Isa Chandra Moskowitz. We can purchase bagels locally at Collegetown Bagels, but nothing compares to the ones we could getContinue reading “Everything Bagels”

After finally checking into our hotel in Brooklyn, we got on the L Train to visit the East Village in Manhattan. We had dinnerContinue reading “Weekend in Williamsburg, Brooklyn”
Blueberry Pie
I bought an extra flat of blueberries from my CSA share. Blueberries are my favorite berry of all the berries. I knew I had to make a pie as soon as I got them home! The rest I may just eat by the handful. The recipe for this pie came from Vegan Pie in theContinue reading “Blueberry Pie”
No-bake hazelnut cookies
Wow, I can’t believe how long it’s been since I posted anything on this blog. I have been so pre-occupied with grad school and other life events that I mostly forgot about it. Here is a quick recipe for cookies that I actually made back when I was participating in Vegan MOFO. They are calledContinue reading “No-bake hazelnut cookies”
krautkrapfa
Krautkrapfa is a noodle dish stuffed with sausage, bacon, and sauerkraut. I wanted to try recreating this dish the first time I saw the picture. I already had a jar of sauerkraut in the fridge too. I’m not sure if I have ever had anything like it before though. The first step was to decideContinue reading “krautkrapfa”
