"He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals." -Immanuel Kant

Rise and Shine!

                  The Bebe and me, heading out the door in search of caffeine

An iced soy vanilla latte is the perfect start to my morning, every morning.

Today I am taking my kitchen to the continent of Africa. Love African food. Love it. Now, I have never been to Africa, and when I had the chance I dropped the ball (the regiment of 9,000 shots one has to receive in order to travel over there was the source of my procrastination, and I never got my visa ). African cooking is exciting, with flavors and foods that one doesn't normally find on their supper plate. Several African dishes are veggie friendly  (from the fact that few in Africa can afford meat with every meal).  Tonight I am planning on cooking a traditional bean dish, and serving it over rice, with plantains in coconut milk as a side. Pictures and recipes will follow, once I blunder my way through throwing the dish together.
