Currently… Eating:
Today’s flavor was pumpkin-chocolate-chip. With Dagoba 100% chocolate pieces. Also:
But not together! No, definitely not together. Just two dishes I happen to be loving lately.

Does anyone else ever wonder why running magazines seem to focus so much on weight loss?
Sure, some people might pick up running in order to lose weight… but wouldn’t they read fitness magazines if looking for weight-loss tips? I would’ve thought people interested in running magazines would be those who love the sport of running and want to know all about its history, lore, and famous faces (i.e. stories of the star athletes involved), as well as ways to properly fuel for peak performance, not weight loss.
Just my 2 cents. I still love the magazine.

And one more foodie “currently”:
Speaking of dessert, you’re going to see a lot more of it in the next few days. Coming atcha tomorrow is a new chocolate-cake recipe. And after that: a milkshake (which may or may not have something to do with cake batter).
Question of the Day:
What are your “currently”s?
I hope you make the list!!!
My currently’s…..making some socca pizza bites for dinner and watching some friday night lights re-runs:)
I’ve got a delicious Cajun Red Bean Stew on the stove.. and I can’t wait to dive in! I just took my dog for a lovely two hour romp in the 50 degree temps we are having! It’s a nice, lazy Sunday and I love it.
currently LOVING the Bitter Chocolate Cake recipe from Alex @ Spoonful Of Sugar Free. YUM YUM YUM. Could eat that every day! It’s extra good with “fruit ice cream” (just froz fruit in food processor) Also loving the mint patty baby things. Currently in life, I love being a wife and Mama, although those are lifelong passions 🙂
so when you make icing using tofu, is it safe to store at room temperature?
Hey, I don’t know the answer to this, but throwing in my two cents I find the icing firms up and taste a lot better when refrigerated.
I’m not sure, but I agree with Disturbed that it’s thicker and more icing-like when fridged.
The oatmeal cake looks delicious! Have a great week 🙂 I like your blog!
Aww thanks!
I think pretty much all magazines that have to do with something active (or food related) has at least one article promoting a “new idea on how to lose weight” because when someone sees that on the shelf-they buy it. They want to lose weight.
I am currently wearing a white tennis skirt and pink top. And eating chocolate with peanuts 🙂
I totally agree about the running magazine. I don’t read runner’s mags for weight loss tips!
Currently….sitting down at the computer for the first time today. 🙂
Currently drooling over dessert pizza cake. I feel the same way about runner’s world lately. I am training for a marathon now, and while sure, it’d be nice to lose a few, that’s just not what I’m concentrating on right now, I need to be eating a lot of healthy food to get through training! But then every time I read I feel like I’m supposed to be trying to weigh myself every day, too, and focus on that instead. Not cool.
Me too! I get confused, reading those articles! I’m like, “Wait, am I supposed to be eating like this?” lol no!
It’s sort of annoying how much magazines still focus on weight loss after this time last year they were starting to make the shift to living healthy..and then it’s like they lost focus and were like “nvm, weight loss is more controversial”..and therefor more interesting for a lot of people I guess..
My big currently: procrastinating! 😉
LOL! I guess that’s my “always” 🙂
Currently loving your raw snickerdoodles, obviously!! And I like that magazine too but you’re right, every other article seems to mention weight loss. They should make a magazine specifically for running to lose weight and people can just buy that!
All magazines seem to focus on weight loss…from running to women’s health to fashion. It’s so old and played out. But apparently it’s what sells. They wouldnt keep printing it if ppl didnt keep buying them. Sad but true.
Currently loving the dessert pizzert w/ sprinkles! YUM! And the other great looking eats here.
And also the mid 70s and sunny weather here in CA. That’s what I’m loving 🙂
Re: “Currently”
I tried quinoa for the first time yesterday. I’m going to eat it for dinner again, tonight.
Almost any recipe which tastes good with rice would probably also taste good with quinoa replacing the rice.
I keep meaning to try it in an oatmeal recipe! 🙂
The quinoa I had for dinner tonight had a dryness which caused me to add a tbsp of vegetable oil while I was eating it, which I don’t usually do during a meal. Then the quinoa tasted good.
But in an oatmeal recipe which has soymilk, the soymilk would counter the dryness.
I meant that if instead of eating a bowl of oatmeal with soymilk, one were to eat a bowl of quinoa with soymilk, then the dry-quality of quinoa would be balanced.
I wasn’t referring to cake recipes.
Currently obsessing over sea vegetable salad–had some at a funky veg cafe for lunch and can’t stop raving about how good it was! Also, currently reading Food Network Mag–shockingly, I’ve never read a single issue!
My currently’s: yoga pants, commenting on blogs, figuring out what I’m making for dinner tonight 🙂
Yoga pants! The comfort food of clothing :).
Currently watching The West Wing with my mum, coffee, and chocolate covered dried mango. life is good.
I LOVE West Wing!!!! !!!! Especially Josh and Donna :). Oh, and Santos! And Leo. Oh heck, I just love that show. Come back, West Wing!
You are so sweet and that baked oatmeal cake looks delicious! I am going to check out your cauliflower chicken nuggets right now 🙂
