Vegan with a Vengeance : Over 150 Delicious, Cheap, Animal-Free Recipes That Rock

by Isa Chandra Moskowitz

I made the scones with the strawberry sauce and creme (I used almond instead of macadamia nuts). There were fabulous! You’ll never miss strawberry shortcake again or regular scones for that matter. Blog entry about it HERE here. Photo below.

Why I recommend "Soya Spray Whip Cream"

Soya Spray Whip Cream

by Soyatoo!

This is a miracle product! A dairy-free whipped “cream” made from soy. It’s delicious, goes great on all desserts or just a fun spray right into your mouth! Consistency is exactly like Reddi-wip.

Why I want to consume "Lady in the Water"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Mon, 29 May 2006 21:19:13 GMT

Lady in the Water

While I loved Sixth Sense and Unbreakable, I didn’t think Signs and The Village were all that great. The Lady in the Water has an interesting premise, so I’m hoping this will be a good film. If not, M. Night’s future movies might have to go on the “see it on cable” list.

Why I recommend "An Inconvenient Truth"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Mon, 29 May 2006 21:14:17 GMT

An Inconvenient Truth

This is absolutely worth seeing. It’s NOT a political film; it’s a documentary about global warming and raising awareness about it, and the simple things that WE can be doing to prevent it.

A review of "Mission Impossible III"

Mission Impossible III

by J.J. Abrams

Probably better on DVD.

My detailed review HERE.

A review of "Da Vinci Code"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Mon, 29 May 2006 21:04:59 GMT

Da Vinci Code

by Ron Howard

I wrote about the movie (with a bit about the book) HERE.

I’m glad I went to see it, because it’s wasn’t a “bad” film, but it’s just that the book was GREAT. Tom Hanks was not the right person for this role, even though I love his him, he just doesn’t pull off the scholar role.

A review of "X-Men III: The Last Stand"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Mon, 29 May 2006 20:58:53 GMT

X-Men III: The Last Stand

by Brett Ratner

I gave my two cents and much more in my official review:
HERE as well as in a blog entry HERE.

But for the record here, I thought it was absolutely worth seeing, but that it concentrated a lot on action sequences, while leaving a lot of characters with nothing to do. It’s a WAR! Time to bust out the mutant reinforcements. But nope, doesn’t happen. Still, lots of good stuff in this film—nice set ups for X4.

And that post-credits scene: very important. It sucks that so many people didn’t know about it.

Why I recommend "Battlestar Galactica (2003 Miniseries)"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Sat, 06 May 2006 00:40:46 GMT

Battlestar Galactica (2003 Miniseries)

by Michael Rymer

I actually watched this when it first was on scifi channel. I kind of liked it, but was afraid to get too attached. Plus, I like to watch a show all at once, instead of waiting for the next installment. That is why I recommend watching the DVD. I did that recently and instantly loved it. Well, it helped that I actually knew that there was more where that came from, what with the TV show in it’s 2nd season (I didn’t have that comfort the first time I watched the mini series).

A story about "Golden Oreos"

Golden Oreos

by Nabisco

I discovered these a few weeks ago, and now I just can’t STOP consuming them. I’m going to have to add a listing for “Stop eating Golden Oreos.” They are addictive, but SOOOOOOOO delicious. This is going to the top of the list of favorite all-time snacks.

A story about "Superman Returns"

Why I want to consume "The Munsters - The Complete First Season"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Tue, 28 Mar 2006 19:31:36 GMT

The Munsters - The Complete First Season

by David Alexander

This is one of the best TV shows ever! It was very original for its time. The last time I really watched these was years ago when they were rerun on TV Land. I did some research and it looks like Season 1 is the better disc to get. I looked for it recently, but no stores had it. I’m going to order it from Amazon, then the marathon will begin!!

How "Firefly - The Complete Series" changed my life

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Tue, 21 Mar 2006 04:48:42 GMT

Firefly - The Complete Series

That’s right, it’s changed my life! Because that what good television does to me, damnit!

Seriously, this was the best friggin show. EVERYONE who’s ever seen it, loves it. How in hell did it get cancelled?

I thought the characters were very well developed and likeable; scenaros weren’t of the ridiculous, and I was really hoping to see more of the Reavers. Capt. Mal butt nekkid, not too bad. The entire cast was awesome, especially Ron Glass (xoxoxo to you, Ron!)

I HIGHLY recommend this series.

V for Vendetta

I went to see the movie preview night showing and wrote about it HERE.

A story about the last time I consumed "Broccoli Slaw"

Broccoli Slaw

by Foxy

I found this item a few weeks ago and I found that it’s a great option in place of lettuce.

I made falafels wraps with it, and wrote about it: HERE.

Enjoy!

I have my tickets already!!!! Hope it doesn’t suck ass.

Why I recommend "Amy's Shepherd's Pie"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Thu, 16 Feb 2006 03:30:56 GMT

Amy's Shepherd's Pie

by Amy's

Traditional Shepherd’s Pie has always been one of my favorite foods, and I knew I’d miss it once I went vegan. Now that I’ve found Amy’s brand Shepherd’s Pie, I’m sooo happy. I swear, it takes like the real thing. It’s really delicious, I highly recommend it to everyone. Enjoy!

A story about "Fantastic Four"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Wed, 13 Jul 2005 05:09:35 GMT

Fantastic Four

by Tim Story

I’m big into comic books, so I heavily judge these types of movies. I honestly expected F4 to suck, but it didn’t. The storyline and origin story were both good and the acting was fine. I really don’t know why it got back reviews. I thought it followed the pace of the X-Men movies.

A story about "Fighting the World"

Fighting the World

by Manowar

I actually finished comsuming this album around 1987 I believe.

A story about "Harmful If Swallowed (CD & DVD)"

nobody@allconsuming.net (empressofmetal) — Sat, 09 Jul 2005 07:15:34 GMT

Harmful If Swallowed (CD & DVD)

by Dane Cook

I got this CD for my birthday last year after I laughed my ass off to a friend’s copy of the “Slip & Bleed” and “Car Accident” skits. Dane Cook is the FUNNY FUCKING DUDE out there. I totally love him. I listen to this CD all the time on my way to work, and I just keep laughing.
