'Tyre-d' of the run around
Harry Dickins has been left fuming and has lost thousands of dollars in revenue after more than a week without phone service at his Yarrawonga business.RACHEAL WILLETT May 13, 2014 3:23pm
Harry Dickins Tyre Service was reconnected over the weekend, without notice, restoring his usual phone number of 5744 3900.
The reconnection was a relief for Harry who last week faced the prospect of losing the business number he'd had for the past 14 years.
The business phone was disconnected without warning on May 1 when telecommunications wholesaler Conec2 had several companies in its control placed in administration.
His was one of an estimated 10,000 clients in Victoria alone that found themselves without service.
The Yarrawonga Chronicle had reports of some residential clients being impacted by the collapse, with few reports of other businesses being affected.
"I just picked up the phone and it was dead – no warning, nothing," Harry said.
"Since then it's been a run around trying to find out what I can do."
All landline connections were lost, Harry's eftpos connection remained for 24 hours before it was also disconnected and he had limited internet access.
Harry said he contacted Telstra, seeking to switch to their service, only to be told it would be at least a three working day wait.
"When I called back after the three days, they said that was incorrect and it would more likely be five to ten working days," Harry said.
"In the meantime I had no phone service – I'd say I lost 99% of my normal business.
"We fitted one tyre in three days – you don't realise how much you rely on people being able to call the business rather than dropping in."
Harry relied on word of mouth to let people know he was still operating, as the recorded message received when the landline is called just said the phone number was disconnected.
"It didn't say 'temporarily', just 'disconnected' so people probably thought we'd shut up shop," he said.
Harry said he was informed initially by the telecommunications ombudsmen that even if he could get a new service connected, he would likely not get his old number back.
"I've had the same number here for 14 years, it was the number here before I bought the business," he said.
"They said it belonged to the phone company and because they are in administration it is kept in contract with them – they somehow own my phone number."
Thankfully, Harry's landline was reconnected over the weekend. He is assuming the company was bought out by another, but as yet has not had any communication from the phone provider.
Harry Dickins Tyre Service can be contacted on 5744 3900.

Washington Monthly ranks UW 8th in U.S.
A nonprofit magazine based in Washington, D.C., included the University of Washington in its top-10 list of national universities, up from the 23rd spot last year, due in part to the school's affordability.

A national magazine that ranks colleges according to how much good they do for the nation has put the University of Washington as eighth in the U.S. — up from 23rd a year ago.
Washington Monthly, a national nonprofit magazine that covers politics and culture, rates schools based on the degree to which they improve social mobility, produce research and promote social service. The D.C.-based magazine gave the UW a higher rating this year because it scored well on a new measure: the cost of attending school there.
"What it says is the UW-Seattle does a terrific job graduating the students that it gets, at a price they can afford," said Washington Monthly editor-in-chief Paul Glastris.
That might come as a surprise to Husky families who have had to absorb steep tuition increases since the beginning of the economic downturn. The UW's in-state undergraduate tuition has nearly doubled in just six years, largely because of legislative budget cuts that have shifted the cost to students and families.
But the UW also is generous with financial aid to cash-strapped families, bringing the net cost of tuition down, Glastris said.
And its graduation rate is strong, too. About 22 percent of the UW's undergraduates receive federal Pell grants for low-income students, yet the school does a much better job graduating students than those numbers would predict: About 80 percent of UW first-time, full-time undergraduates finish their degrees in six years. The predicted rate, when the number of students receiving financial aid and student SAT scores are taken into account, is 69 percent.
The No. 8 position is the highest national ranking the UW has ever achieved, aside from issue-specific rankings. (Sierra Magazine ranked the UW first for its sustainability efforts last year, and fourth this year.)
UW President Michael Young said the UW is delighted to be near the top of the list. "This is what we — especially public universities — should be doing for our students and their communities: providing accessible, affordable, high quality education that makes a difference," he said in a statement.
Washington Monthly has been on a decadelong campaign to raise questions about how colleges are ranked, with a particular focus on U.S. News & World Report's rankings, often considered the most influential national rankings — they'll be released Sept. 12. "That well-known list actually rewards colleges for spending more money, raising prices and shutting out all but the most privileged students," wrote Washington Monthly editors in the magazine's introduction.
Last year, U.S. News ranked the UW 42nd. Its top-20 list is usually stacked with private schools charging annual tuitions of $40,000 or more. In contrast, the Monthly's top-10 list is largely made up of public research universities. Its number-one school? University of California-San Diego.
"While other publications try to rank schools based on what they can do for you, we rank them based on what they're doing for the country," Glastris said.
It's hard to know just how important national rankings are, but there's no denying that they're good for bragging rights, and a top ranking is often featured in student recruitment literature. "Maybe some fraction of students use these as barometers, or yardsticks," said UW spokesman Norm Arkans.
A few other Washington schools also did well on Washington Monthly's list, which is broken down by three categories: national universities, master's-degree-granting universities and liberal arts colleges. Whitworth University in Spokane was ninth on the list of schools that grant master's degrees, The Evergreen State College was 29th, Seattle University 42nd, Gonzaga University 66th, and Western Washington University, 71st.
Among liberal arts colleges, Whitman College ranks 30th; the University of Puget Sound, 133rd.
Washington State University, which is on the list of national universities, came in 147th.

Edited from NYRA reports
Jockey Richard Migliore, who has ridden many stakes winners since being honored with an Eclipse Award as the nation's top apprentice in 1981, says he has sat on only two horses that were the complete package, or as he put it, "a horse that has no chinks in the armor."Hidden Lake, a filly Migliore rode to three grade I victories in 1997 and ultimately an Eclipse Award as champion older mare, is one of them. The other is Artie Schiller, a top 3-year-old turf horse who is running in Sunday's $200,000 Jamaica Handicap at Belmont (gr. IIT)."I haven't found (a weakness) and I think that's why I get such a big kick out of (Artie Schiller)," Migliore said. "You can go out there feeling very clear headed and confident when you're on him. I've ridden a lot of really good horses that always gave you something to worry about. It's a rare combination when you have a horse with his kind of ability who is also manageable and easy to ride."Migliore and the colt he has developed a soft spot for will attempt to win their fourth stakes of the season when they start at a short price in the Jamaica at nine furlongs on the inner turf course.Artie Schiller, who won the Hill Prince over this course in June, is the starting highweight at 123 pounds in the six-horse field. Trained by Jimmy Jerkens, Artie Schiller makes his first start since winning Saratoga's National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame Stakes (gr. IIT) on Aug. 9. Artie Schiller showed how tractable he is that sultry afternoon at Saratoga, as he let Migliore take hold of him while accelerating on the far turn.
"He was trying to drag me up in between two horses and I didn't want to go," said Migliore, who has won the Jamaica three times. "I knew I was on a much the best horse and didn't want to put him in a position where I would have to check and have to get him started again."
Artie Schiller, who has won races on the lead and closing from well off the pace, has won four of five starts on the turf this year. He lone defeat on the grass came at the hands of Kitten's Joy, who is considered the top three-year-old turf horse in the nation. Kitten's Joy was nominated to the Jamaica, but is bypassing the race in favor of next Saturday's Grade 1, $750,000 Joe Hirsch Turf Classic Invitational at a mile and a half at Belmont Park. "When he can run easy early on and lay close early, I don't think there's a horse that can beat him," Jerkens said.Post position -- horse, jockey, weight

Deep Inside the Chain Pub Piss Dungeon
Mar 12 2012
Ever heard the story about the girl who sleeps with some dude and ends up getting some weird, flesh-eating disease that the doctor tells her can only be contracted through sex with a corpse?
Every once in a while you hear a story of human sexual deviance so extremely left of center that it literally blows your mind. It's even more disturbing when you're there, at the source, and can see the corroborating evidence for yourself.
One of my best buds from Southend is the manager of a chain pub in Central London.
A few weeks ago, he was standing behind the bar when a guy came up to him looking rather concerned.
"Listen mate, this is gonna sound totally insane, but I've just gone for a piss in the urinal and I could've sworn I saw an eyeball looking up from the hole."
"I'm sorry?" my friend replies.
"Not just an eyeball, but, like, an eyebrow as well. And the eye was looking around."
So the guy convinces my friend to have a look to put his mind at ease.
They both went to the bathroom to check on the two adjoining rooms. As they go through the first door, they discover that the place is pretty much flooded with urine. My mate comments to the guy that obviously this is not normal.
Things get stranger still when they get to the door to the second back room, which is a fire exit and should be unlocked—it isn't. My friend gets his keys out to unlock the door, and as he begins to do so, a frantic scuffle begins behind the door. As he attempts to push it open, the handle is ripped out of his hand and a dude comes charging out of the room, soaked head to toe in piss. He pushes both my friend and the customer (who are too shocked to react) out of the way, screaming, "I didn't do anything!" as he ran away.
By the time they regain their sense of reality, the guy has made his escape, leaving them to assess the scene of abject depravity he's left in his wake.
The plumbing for the urinal had been carefully removed and put to one side, leaving a hole in the masonry big enough for a head and shoulders to squeeze in. Tissue paper had been laid on the exposed brickwork to provide a comfortable head rest for what seemed to be a lengthy session of being pissed on. By men. In secret. In a toilet belonging to pretty much the biggest pub chain in Britain. Oh, and did I mention the snorkel?
The police are called. Forensics scour the scene, but no fingerprints can be found owing to the copious amounts of wee on every single surface.
I was told this story while incredibly stoned. I was utterly incredulous. I was even more incredulous when he showed me pictures of this makeshift piss dungeon on his phone, taken moments after the incident.
He said he was pretty disturbed by the fact that he had seen this utterly normal-looking middle-aged man at his lowest ebb. He had obviously done a recce on the place and put a fair amount of planning into finding, and locking himself into this room. All without arousing the suspicions of staff or punters before it was way too late.
There you go, then. Next time you go for a pee in a urinal, or anywhere for that matter, just remember that someone could be mere feet away bathing in your waste fluids.

'Vishwaroopam' to Release Next Week? Kamal Haasan Agrees for Seven Cuts
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By IBTimes Staff Reporter | February 3, 2013 8:37 PM EST
Nearly ten days after Muslim organizations voiced objection to the release of "Vishwaroopam", the film is now set to release in Tamil Nadu after actor-director Kamal Haasan agreed to edit some of its scenes.
On Saturday, Kamal met with Muslim organizations leaders and agreed to make seven edits, including snipping some of the sound clips that they considered offensive.
The decision of editing came after a four to five hour discussion between the representatives and Kamal, accompanied by his brother and co-producer of the film Chandra Haasan.
"I have spoken to my Muslim brothers. I have convinced them that there is nothing wrong with the film. I have agreed to remove some sound clips from the film," Kamal said after the meeting.
Kamal also said that they would soon announce the release of the film. The re-edited film would be sent to the Censor Board for approval. "We now expect the ban to be lifted soon, and will take measures to withdraw the petition filed against it," he said.
"The process of audio-editing and finalising the revised version of the film would take about six hours, after which digital reprints would be ready. But, the movie will now have to compete for screen time with two other big weekend releases - Mani Ratnam's Kadal and actor Vikram's David. Both are running to packed houses and have advance bookings for the next three days," Chandra Haasan told NDTV.
The spy thriller was released on Friday in North India, including Uttar Pradesh where tight security arrangements were put in place at theatres and multiplexes.

My conventional scale was not accurate and we all knew it. With the entire family beginning a serious weight loss/healthy eating plan, I decided it was time to throw away the old and start anew. This scale has proven to be accurate and has passed the test of young and old in our household. We have been able to track our losses with ease and stay on track with our new way of living.

got for my daughters bathroom, she likes the digital numbers and that its clear
Wed Mar 16 00:00:00 MDT 2011ccaf Rating:5.0
Modern looking & it works great, gives weight, muscle mass and fat percentage and also stores age, height, weight for several people..... I use it every morning....
Thu Nov 10 00:00:00 MST 2011anythingusamade Rating:1.0
We specifically bought this scale because it was listed as made in the USA with the made in the USA symbol. When we got it, it said made in China. I'd say that is false advertising. Is anything made in the USA anymore?
Fri Aug 10 00:00:00 MDT 2012vimax Rating:4.0
The scale is very nice and works well. It fits perfectly in my bathroom and isn't too heavy to move if necessary. I have not had any problems with the scale and it arrived timely.
Wed Aug 15 00:00:00 MDT 2012darkestknight Rating:1.0
i ordered this scale because of the lovely "made in usa" symbol on the page. well, it's made in china. the sad thing is that i'm not the first person to realize this and that overstock has not changed the description. i returned the item.
Sun Apr 10 00:00:00 MDT 2011missjoan7 Rating:4.0
I have only one complaint about this scale. The instructions say to tap the top fo the scale to turn it on. This does not work. I have to lift the scale off the floor and tap it against the floor to turn it on. Otherwise, I am very happy with all other details/functions of the scale.
Oct 13, 20141GoldN from New Jersey, Rating:5.0
Smart scale. Measures in kg. Can read if you are dehydrated. Worth the purchase.
Oct 11, 2014allwomenrock from Silver Spring, MD, Rating:4.0
Useful for folks who need extra large numbers for reading. Seems to be accurate although sometimes the numbers do fluctuate when you step on it a second time.
Oct 9, 2014buffalobarb from Bristol , PA, Rating:5.0
This scale is good looking and slim.. Best of all the numbers are large and visible from my tall height. 5 stars. A good price for a great product..
Sep 24, 2014dorisnewman from New York, NY, Rating:1.0
was not working when I received it therefore had to be returned
Sep 20, 2014diverdown2 from Florida, Rating:5.0
This scale comes in a variety of colors, but aqua was perfect for the main bath, which I had recently redone. Your weight lights up on the digital display only when you step on it, and it remains for approximately 3 seconds after you step off.

It's impossible for PS3 to elaborate high definition texture in real time reading directly from disc simply because blu-ray is too slow(like your brain),so the only solution is to install everything on HD and also manage everithing from disc require a lot more memory and processing power!!!Please next time learn before instead of voting down what you can't understand!!!

Did you actually ever look at a PC/console comparison of the Crysis port? They've massively scaled down the graphics in practically every way. The console port may feature some "altered" lighting effects, but they are hardly "better", and in most cases the changes look considerably less realistic, with blown highlights and oversaturated colors attempting to oscure the lack of detail. The foliage is far more sparse and less detailed, and tons of objects are missing from the the environment or …

Here's a bit more info:
Red Thread Games has licensed the rights to 'The Longest Journey' universe from Funcom, and Mr. T�rnquist will spearhead development of 'Dreamfall Chapters', while continuing in an advisory role as Creative Director on Funcom's recently launched modern-day massively multiplayer online game 'The Secret World'.
Last month Joel Bylos stepped into the position as Game Director on the myths, legends and conspiracy themed online game, allowing Mr. T�rnquist to devote more of his time to 'Dreamfall Chapters', which recently entered pre-production.
Red Thread Games will independently fund and produce the sequel to 'Dreamfall', and has entered into a revenue sharing agreement with Funcom as part of the licensing deal. Funcom owns the intellectual property rights for 'The Longest Journey', but due to the company's focus on and commitment to the development of online games, the decision was made to license the rights to Mr. T�rnquist and his new development studio. The close working relationship between Funcom and Mr. T�rnquist will allow him to continue on as Creative Director of Funcom's 'The Secret World', in parallel with putting together a team to develop 'Dreamfall Chapters'.
"I'm very excited to finally have the opportunity to continue the 'The Longest Journey' saga," says Ragnar T�rnquist. "Ever since we ended 'Dreamfall' on a nail-biting cliffhanger, players have been rightfully demanding a sequel, and my deal with Funcom will finally make that possible. I'm extremely grateful to Funcom for this unique and exciting opportunity, and I can't wait to dive back into the universe I helped create more than a decade ago, and continue the story players have been waiting for these past six years."
Red Thread Games will release more details about 'Dreamfall Chapters' in the coming months.

Chocolate Cherry Hemp Bars & YumUniverse Cookbook Giveaway
I am no stranger to Heather Crosby's fabulous recipes (seen here previously: Peruvian Bean Bowl with Fried Plantains, Blueberry Tarragon Dressing and more recently the Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream), I was excited to be able to review her first solo cookbook creation, YumUniverse as part of the #YUBlogTour and #YUHealthyHalloween Blog Tour.
However, it is more than a cookbook. It is a fabulously complete introduction (and then some) to eating plant-based whole foods. Her book is built in three parts: why, how and do (let's eat). First, why eat plant-based? Heather details numerous reasons to eat your vegetables. Her second part, teaches the reader the ins-and-outs of how to cook plant-based. She addresses protein and calcium needs and how to craft a week's worth of eats. There are tables of how to properly store fresh and pantry ingredients (fruits/vegetables, oils, nuts, spices, flours, etc; whether they go in the fridge/freezer). She explains soaking and sprouting with times for common nuts and seeds. She explains different cooking methods and even how to correct oversalting. Once you have mastered feeding yourself, she has tips for social situations. She really has left no gaps. She even explains how to get rid of pesky fruit flies.
Next, the recipes. With adventurist recipes including Mung Bean and Eggplant Curry, Jerk Lentil and Avocado Wrap, Beet, Apple and Onion Gratin and Skillet Crusted Sweet Potato Gnocchi, there are boundless possibilities. That was just in the lunch/dinner section. Heather also includes breakfasts, dressings, dips/spreads, breads, beverages, snacks and other desserts and treats.
In short, this is the cookbook I wish I had when I first began my journey becoming a vegan.
I made her Chocolate & Cherry Hemp Bars which are a spiffied rice krispy treat. Like Ange's Glo Bars, brown rice syrup is the binder of choice but the bars are not that sweet. Calling them hemp bars is a bit of a superfood marketing ploy: they are barely detectable amidst the sunflower seeds, rolled oats and flaked coconut. Furthermore the chocolate chips melted seamlessly into the sweet binder, so the major flavour was from the tart cherries with a faint chocolate background. Below is the photo you would actually find in the cookbook. Enjoy!

Roasted Cauliflower Salad with Fried Capers and Pickled Currants
Welcome to my latest obsession: fried capers.
If you have yet to try them yet, try to imagine how they would taste. Crunchy, salty little nibbles. It surprised me how much they taste like popcorn, I kid you not. Combined with the pickled currants (tart and sweet), and the avocado (creamy!), this salad was perfectly balanced. I know I say that a lot here, but this salad rises above its peers. It could possibly be my best salad of the year. I thought my Cali-Coco BLT Salad was the best so far, but this week I switched allegiances. It could possibly usurp the former champion, crowned in 2011: The New Best Salad Ever aka Roasted Garlic Tofu Salad with Cilantro Rice, Black Beans and a Mango Salsa.
I am no stranger to quick pickled dried fruits, but the benefit of pickling dried currants instead of raisins, is that you don't get the goopy juicy raisins that don't particularly appeal to me.
My inspiration for this fascinating combination was the ever-fabulous Deb of Smitten Kitchen, although I changed many things, including adding the much maligned leafy greens. I also chose to roast my cauliflower and added the fantastically creamy avocado. I look forward to trying her riced fresh cauliflower in the warmer months. The fried capers? Completely her idea. Her poetic prose made me stock up on capers pronto:
Crispy fried capers are one of my favorite garnishes, ever. They are way more interesting than bacon bits — yes, I said it. When you drop capers (that you've patted out on paper towels as best as possible) in a little puddle of oil, magical things happen — their layers curl out and crisp, like the world's tiniest blooming onion. Like all fried, crunchy things, they don't keep long under the weight of dressing; I recommend adding them only right before serving. I usually use brined capers for this, but both brined and salt-packed will work.
Um yeah, totally try them out. Please.

Abby's Vegan Pumpkin Pie with a Pecan-Oat Crust
While it still feels like summer in Toronto, it is hard to believe Thanksgiving is quickly approaching. And as I was writing up my recipe for raw macadamia vanilla cream, I realized I never shared this fabulous recipe with you.
It still makes me smile that one of my co-workers, Abby, made a vegan and gluten-free pumpkin pie with me in mind for last year's Thanksgiving. Abby graciously let me take home all the leftovers which I enjoyed. Sadly, I was hoping to get better photos. I don't think these do it any justice but figured I should still share the great recipe with you.
Pumpkin pies are ubiquitous in the US around Thanksgiving but this pie was better than your traditional fare. A mixture of both pumpkin and sweet potato purees with a custard texture from tofu worked really well here. It was perfectly sweetened with a hint of savoury notes from the cinnamon and nutmeg. The recipe will make more filling than you need for one pie, which might work out nicely if you have a vegan friend who really wants all the leftovers. ;)
The crust was awesome, too, just a bit on the brown side, but with a spiced pecan background that worked well with the pumpkin pie. As I pay more attention to the recipe, it looks like Abby took some inspiration for the crust from my pecan-shortbread crust I used with a lemon-cheesecake. You may not even need to pre-bake the crust like Abby did, so keep that in mind.
Are you ready for fall yet?

Creamy High Protein Mushroom Stroganoff
Do you remember the soba noodle debacle? The time I bought oodles of soba noodles and then proceeded to leave them in the pantry and slowly, slowly eat through them. Yeah, I still have soba noodles and still eating through them. A true hoarder.
However, when the cooking rut continues, I get less picky in the kitchen. I have little energy to refuse the noodles. Plus, they are quick and easy to make. I added the cold leftover sauce to warm noodles and it melted right in. A little green garnish might be nice, too. Consider adding fresh chives, as recommended in the original recipe. Because you know, I would never suggest eating parsley. Yucko.

Mango Coconut Cups
Third time was a charm. Rob and I finally got our internet at home this weekend. (YES!)
We also moved all our stuff previously stored in my brother's basement.
I can no longer find my computer, though.
I mean, I know where it is, but it blocked by too many boxes to unpack.
OMG. We have a lot of stuff. I am truly a hoarder (of sorts).
Living a year without most of the stuff will make it easy to purge. Easier, I should clarify.
I am hoping to rebuild a decluttered home, but we have many boxes ahead of us. In time.
Otherwise, here are some quick and easy desserts to try. No need to wait too long for your mango to absorb any water, just blitz away. I added a touch of lemon zest to accentuate the sweetness of the mango. The coconut makes this luscious and decadent. These are more akin to a non-chocolate truffle in their consistency. I don't think they would work well as a ball, which is why I put them in the small cups. Another alternative would be to pour the batter into a small square container and then cut them into your preferred size. Enjoy!
Hoarder or purger? Which are you?
I will hopefully become a ruthless purger.
Fiesta Masa Cornbread Muffins
This is probably my favourite concoction from the remains of my pantry.
I had a vision. I wanted to make corn muffins with masarepa. Cornmeal, polenta, masa harina and masarepa— what are the differences?
Masarepa is unique because it is precooked. We use it all the time for arepas and I love how soft and melt-in-your mouth arepas taste fresh from the oven. Sounds like the perfect recipe for cornbread, no?
My googling did not help. Possibly because arepas ARE Colombia's (and Venezuela's) answer to cornbread.
In any case, I cobbled together a few recipes and in the end, just ran with it. Into my batter with masarepa (and masa harina since I finished our stash), I added roasted corn, roasted hatch chiles and roasted red peppers. A bit of sweetener to accentuate the dough, although that may be sacrilegious depending on who you ask (and I am no corn bread expert).
Although I appreciate good food, and this was delicious. Basically a fiesta arepa in muffin form. They didn't really raise too much. Although this will encourage me to add veggies to our next batch of arepas.
I find experimental baking quite daunting, but these turned out great. Do you ever make non-arepas from masarepa?
Green Pea Curry (Mattar Masala)
Rob did some more investigating. He found a program that would figure out if I had any duplicate files irregardless of the name.
WOO! After three days, my program to find duplicate files on your external hard drive has completed. It has found at least 172 GB of duplicate files. We need to clean them up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His emphasis, not mine.
So apparently, I come with baggage. Electronic baggage.
There used to be a time when I couldn't fit everything on my hard drive, but once I had 1 Tb on my external hard drive, I haven't thought much about my space usage.
Rob didn't appreciate my old school way of culling my photos: copying them into a new folder. Sometimes I had 4-5 copies of the same photo with my disjointed backing up. Now we get to do some culling!
Rob is doing a great job tackling our leftover food stuffs. This was an absolutely, wonderfully delicious pea curry he made with the peas in the freezer and spices from the pantry. I am not saying that just because Rob made it and everything tastes better when someone else cooks for you, but honestly this was gourmet Indian and made me a pea-lover. I love beans but peas are not as high in my "love list" but this, guys, was incredible.
Creamy with a rich-tomato broth with bright green peas, this was a keeper. Sadly, this curry has a really long ingredient list, which seems almost disjointed and muddy, but have faith. This was delicious and completely worth the effort (and definitely Rob's effort!).
Do you like peas?
PS. I am sharing this with Bookmarked Recipes.
New Orleans Corn & Roasted Bell Pepper Soup (Vegan Maque Choux)
Before you start to think this will be a smoked paprika free household, have no fear. I am pretty sure Rob will let me replenish prior to moving back to Canada.
It is a bit of a race, now. Rob has made it his own personal goal to munch through our food stocks…. so, if I wait too long, my food may disappear. Use those roasted red peppers in the pantry! The roasted corn in the freezer! The last of the soy curls! (I actually had planned to use some small flageolet beans I had frozen but could not get them to thaw out of the container fast enough….)
Reminiscent of my Sweet Pepper Coconut Corn Chowder, I loved how this one was virtually bursting with vegetables. Coconut milk would make this a thick and luscious soup. This version was inspired by one of my favourite cookbooks this year, Soup's On!, since it is packed with quick and healthy meals. Mark's inspiration was New Orleans' Maque Choux, a Cajun-inspired corn soup.
I loved it. Simply delicious. I worked with what we had lying around and it made a light, summery bowl of vegetable soup.
Do you like soups in the summer as well?

Lemon Ginger Hemp Bites
I have been a bit quiet on the cycling front.
I kind of poured my everything into the Shiner GASP and let my body (and mind) recover as needed. Rob and I kept cycling, but nothing over 50 km. There is no point in cycling if you aren't having fun. It pales to our upcoming distances, but I just didn't have it inside me to resume our crazy adventures.
Three weeks later and I got my mojo back. I started swapping my morning gym with longer routes to work. Rob would join me. On his road bike, no less, which was a good motivator to keep pushing it on my commuter, while carrying all my stuff for work on my back. I managed to squeeze an extra 50 km, in addition to my regular commute, over the 2 days we tried this out. Sadly, the forecast is all rain this week, so I may return to the gym after all.
With the long weekend, Rob and I had time to both relax and fit in some longer cycling. A perfect balance, methinks. 50 km and 107 km, including an urban hilly ride. Thankfully we made it home yesterday before the torrential rain, which is merely a preview for the week.
In any case, I made these delicious snack bites to tote along for our longer ride. They were inspired by a reader, Jessica, who encouraged me to try adding ginger and turmeric to Gena's Hemp Cocoa Energy Bites. I love it when you guys know me too well!
No stranger to sharp, fresh ginger in sweets (remember my Matcha Ginger Smoothie?), I didn't add enough turmeric for it to be a strong taste. I will admit that I added the ginger because I like its taste but its anti-inflammatory properties are a bonus. However, I added the turmeric specifically because of its anti-inflammatory properties (I really don't like its taste in strong amounts!). The dates sweet this nicely and the hemp protein powder gives it a grassy/earthy undertone which complements the sweetness perfectly.
What do you think of turmeric? Do you try to incorporate into more of your foods? Any recipes you recommend?
Tahini Cups with a Sweet Coffee-Infused Filling
You probably wept as I described Houston's spring/summer weather a few months ago. With the atrocious Canadian winter, I started clarifying when my Mom would ask me about the weather: Do you really want to know? Do you really want to know we have bone fide summer with 30 C highs while you just lost the last of your winter snow? I thought not.
Have no fear, though, you will have your just revenge. That hot and humid weather is mere weeks away, if not here already. Hot and humid? Yeah, that's was this weekend. Houstonians know this is peanuts compared to the upcoming summer (sad face). I am convinced that it is the humidity that makes the wind so heavy here, but I have nothing to prove it.
In any case, I made a Houston-newbie mistake last weekend. I brought these treats to a potluck. Not a problem in other cities, but Houston is hot these days. They were very keen to melting. Even in our apartment, with the air conditioner, they were quick to begin to melt. Since they were my only cooked food fit for others, I brought them anyhow. Imagine my shock when I arrived at the potluck, when they decided to serve the food outdoors! GAH!! A bit of reprieve, the desserts were to stay inside. I placed my container of mini treats with the other desserts and proceeded to pile up with all the delicious savoury options.
I returned indoors to the dessert table. The line from the savoury table now snaked indoors, right past the desserts. I had to do a double-take: only one half-treat remained. I told Christine to grab the last one. Instead of melting, within 5 minutes they had evaporated to high acclaim! Success!
One of my favourite parts of going to vegan potlucks (other than trying so much delicious food), is experimenting in my own kitchen. After seeing Lisa share these, I immediately wanted to try it. Tahini-based desserts were a definite hit earlier this year (see my Sweet Sesame Rice Crispy Treats) and I am warming up to liking a hint of coffee flavour. It pairs well with chocolate (hello Chocolate Mocha Pudding Cake!) but I was unsure about it without the chocolate. Lisa raved about it, so I gave it a whirl.
In case it wasn't obvious: it was a definite hit. The coffee flavour was subtle enough (for me) and paired well with the sweet dates. The tahini cups were a nice contrast with a creamy base. I liked that it was nut-free, which helps for those with nut-allergies at potlucks.
I made these into mini cups, which I think worked well since you could get more filling:base ratio. Tahini can be a bit bitter, but it was tempered nicely with the sweet date-heavy filling. I still had some filling leftover, which was easily slipped into my next morning's oatmeal. The tahini base settled a bit funny on top, which is probably because I didn't use enough. I just barely had enough to surround my 24 minicups. I changed the recipe below to account for more base.
Do you like tahini in your desserts? I am inspired to try more! Perhaps these salted tahini caramels are in my future: tahini + coconut flour + sweetener!
PS. I am sharing this with Bookmarked Recipes.
Breakfast Chocolate Mocha Pudding Cake
Breakfast Chocolate Mocha Pudding Cake.
Because all things with rolled oats are actually meant for breakfast. Add coffee to it, some chocolate for good measures, then there is no question: this is all good breakfast things. A perfect way to start your day.
Because that coffee at night, may keep you awake. Or maybe it was the chocolate.
This was how I rationalized eating this for breakfast.
Eaten fresh, this is basically a self-saucing cake. A chunky dense cake doused in a mocha-chocolate sauce. It was really good, although a bit gummy from the oat flour.
I apologize for the unappealing photographs, but the leftovers were what I had to work with… The leftovers firmed up a lot after the overnight rest, sopping up the sauce, leaving this with a texture more comparable to leftover oatmeal. I hope you still get the idea that this is saucy, though.
Just so you know, I debated remaking this to get a better photo, but decided to share it anyways. My motto is to keep things stress-free and I wanted to share this sooner rather than later.
Chocolate pudding cake has always been associated with the Good Friday Cooking Disaster of 2009, wherein I made a meatless feast with a black bean and pumpkin soup, penne alla vodka and finished it off with a brownie pudding cake. Of course, all were new recipes that I was dying to try out. If I recall correctly, everyone was mostly satisfied with my first two dishes (I remember the penne alla vodka turning out well but I had to simmer off a lot of liquid) but all heck broke loose when I shared dessert. My family did not like it and they told me very bluntly. (Too sweet! I can cook better than you!) That last part is true.
However, I think everyone would love this pudding cake, for dessert or breakfast. Or both. Rob highly approved. For both.
In addition of its association with the upcoming Easter holiday, I also wanted to share this because I received some lovely ingredients to try courtesy of Carrington Farms, ground flax seeds and coconut oil, both of which I used here. Because this is a pudding cake filled with all good things. Check out stores near you celebrating Carrington Farm's All Good April campaign by passing deals to you, too. In Houston, you can find that at HEB and Fiesta Mart. They also have additional coupons on their website.
Disclosure: I wrote this review as part of the #CarringtonAllGoodApril campaign with Carrington Farms, through FitFluential LLC. I received the products described at no cost in order to complete the review. However, opinions are honest and my own.

Chocolate Puffed Quinoa Treats (aka Quinoa Choc-Crackle Slice) & Cookbook Giveaway
Another bike ride and another treat!
Although this weekend was more about travelling to Austin for the Texas VegFest to meet the ever wonderful Tess Challis, instead of cycling. We had lofty plans for both, although the rainy weather foiled our plans.
We decided to play chicken with the weather. We wanted to cycle at least 100 km, if not more. Instead of going out for a long loop, we drove out to a more rural location and used it as our home base. I would have been very happy doing multiple laps along a straight and flat road but Rob thought that would be too boring. Instead, Rob drafted 30-35 km loops in a few directions. We pedalled through two loops before giving in to the wind and rain.
Us versus the weather? We lost. Our bikes? Super dirty. Our car won. It became clean.
The nice thing, though, was that I was able to take out these treats. I was really curious to try them out. Not only to see whether it would be better than my last puffed quinoa treat, but I was curious about using coconut sugar as a binder.
The good part? They tasted great. A chocolately goop to keep everything together. Not too sweet with a hint of almond. Since the quinoa was puffed and not crisp, they were easy to munch on. However, my intuition was correct about the coconut sugar: it did not hold up well as a binder. The only way I could keep these treats together was by chilling it in the freezer. Even then, perfectly cut squares were hard to craft. I resorted to breaking off nibbles when I wanted a treat. As such, these were not portable snacks but worked out well with our continuous looping back to the car. I wonder whether coconut nectar would work better as a binder, although I have never tried it.
The treats are from a fun new vegan cookbook called (wait for it) The Vegan Cookbook. It is a gorgeous cookbook with creative yet approachable recipes: breakfast tagine, kale & soba noodles with ginger-chilli sauce, curried chickpea patties with satay dipping sauce, chai-spiced banana muffins and chocolate banana wontons. Authored by Adele McConnell of Vegie Head, I must admit I had never heard of it before, but we have been enjoying many of her recipes, including the super fast chickpea curry and South African sweet potato stew (very similar to my previously shared recipe). The rasam soup was a bit too tart for me, but at least it wasn't mind-blowing spicy. In any case, with a wide range of international whole food recipes, I have many more dishes I look forward to making.
Here's to hoping the nice weather persists for this weekend. Not only for our cycling adventures but for all those partaking in the MS150 this weekend, too. :)
Thankfully, the publisher allowed me to share the recipe and giveaway the cookbook to a reader living anywhere in the world (YAYAYA!). To be entered in the random draw for the cookbook, please leave a comment below telling me about your favourite vegan meal. The winner will be selected at random on April 21, 2014. Good luck!

It is the most wonderful time of the year….
Not because the spring weather in Houston is positively happiness (it is!) or it is the beginning of a cycling season (it is!)…. but it is the beginning of mango season and now we live closer to the mangoes!
Nearly every year, Rob will hunt down Alphonso mangoes. The fancy mangoes flown in from India. I am not sure whether they will be coming to Houston, but it does not matter. There are cheap and plentiful Mexican Ataulfos to be found. Last week, we picked up a whole case for $5. (We split it with a friend to keep our eating crop fresh. I know we'll be replenishing a few times, no worries)
We tend to keep the mangoes plain and unadorned (at least I do, Rob adds it to his breakfast granola) but used some frozen mangoes for this fun twist on chana masala. It kind of a combination of my Mango BBQ Beans combined with Indian flavours. While I have used amchoor powder (raw mango powder) to make a nice chana masala, this was a fun twist since it was hot and sweet, too. The heat came from our newest infatuation: roasted hatch chiles. The flavours complemented each other nicely, especially with the tang from the tomatoes and the earthy tones from the cumin, mustard seeds and garam masala, too. Not too overly spiced.
Rob actually made a double batch of this and we shared it with friends. We told them to give an honest opinion of the dish. It was the first time we tried it, so we could handle their feedback. Like us, they loved it! And I hope you do, too.
Here's to a prosperous mango season!
This is my submission to this month's Bookmarked Recipes and this week's Souper Sundays.
Chickpea & Kabocha Squash Lemongrass Curry
Recently, Rob and I have been flip-flopping. One weekend Rob is home alone. The next, I am home alone as Rob is out. Travelling separately. Although I probably received the brunt of the solo travels as I ventured to the cold Canadian winter alone. Rob, however, is travelling without me but visiting and meeting friends throughout the US.
This weekend, he also left me without a car. My bike gets me to and from work but on the weekends, the car brings me to groceries. Our loot is too big to bring home on a bike. Oftentimes, Rob will also pick up random missing ingredients throughout the week… so I lost that convenience, too. Although, we planned for this: a double grocery haul last weekend. This week, I get to eat through the fridge and pantry. And tackle my languishing winter squashes.
I am sure I am not the only one with winter squashes on my counter (right?). It happens every year to me. Houston-time, included.
Winter squash may not still be on your radar but with the last winter blast, a warming stew is hard to turn down. (I am not playing with you, Houston does get cold. I had pants on last week).
I finally decided to tackle Hannah's Chickpea and Pumpkin Lemongrass Curry. Unlike most curries, this one has NO CUMIN. Blasted! A bit more sweet with the kabocha squash which worked well with the aromatics like cardamom and coriander, but still tempered by ginger, mustard and chile with a luscious coconut-infused broth spiked with lemongrass.
Do you still have winter squashes looming around? Heck, it is still winter, right? I shouldn't feel too guilty, right? :)
This is my submission to Deb for this week's Souper Sundays, Meatless Mondays for squash and to this month's Spice Trail.
PS. The winner of High Protein Vegan is Miss Polkadot. Congratulations! (more…)
