ABOUT LISA
I started blogging when I was in the middle of grad school and student teaching. I loved cooking and baking in my free time, and got hooked on reading some healthy living blogs.
The healthy living blog trend appealed to me (as someone who likes to think of her lifestyle as fairly healthy), so I went with it. But more recently, after attending some blogging conferences and doing deep thinking, I decided it was time for a change.
Yes, I like food. But I also like to share my thoughts.
Unconventional thoughts (and food), that is.
I’m a vegetarian. (And have been for over 14 years.) Most of the foods I buy and cook with are organic, seasonal, and local, when possible. I’m also pretty much in love with farmers’ markets and farms, natural foods stores, and local cafes and restaurants.
You’ll find vegetarian recipes, tips on green living, and thoughts on blogging, travel, fitness, and unconventional living. It’s a food blog…with (unconventional) food for thought.
I’m also the founder of the Healthy Disney blog. You should check it out!

Teriffic blog, love the pictures. Particularly impressed with the food pix, I know it's a really hard thing to photograph well. Keep it up!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! I enjoyed getting the link to yours too! The snowshoeing looks awesome, I have gone a few times, years ago, and it is an AMAZING workout…I will keep reading
I love your blog! I can't believe you lived in India…
I am a vegetarian too except for the occasional fish. It works for me! Glad it works for you too.
I love your blog, Lisa! Very cool. I'm adding you to my roll. I'm a follower now.
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I'll add yours to my reader as well
Thank you for the comment on my blog.
Thanks for the comment on my blog…so happy, because it led me to yours, which looks really interesting. Love the balance!
Love your blog. Just curious where you live (from your mountain background and skiing pics). You don't have to say! But I live in Colorado and was wondering if you were proud to represent the west too.
I have the travel bug too! I am abroad right now and my family always went on trips when I was little, so I was lucky to get exposed to traveling so early! Can't wait to read more! – Vicky @ vdubb.wordpress.com
Fantastic blog! Hope to read some more of your posts! Keep it up!
We couldn't agree more with your local, sustainable ideas. Great blog! We're in Houston, but check us out – same ideals. We would get along well
Enjoyed reading your posts
Lovely blog, Lisa. As an unschooling mother to my four year old, we live a very similar lifestyle. We are big gardeners and advocates of our csa and eating locally and sustainably. We would rather spend an afternoon wandering though our beautiful neighbourhood hunting for treasures, than just about anything. We live in a very small house, by choice…drive one (old) car, by choice. My husband works at a job that he absolutely LOVES. We live an intentional life and we feel so good about it. Thanks for sharing your experience here. I look forward to following along. -Debbie
You are in my Blogroll now, I also backed my own bread very often…. you can see it on Facebook. Good luck I enjoy your way of living.
So excited I found your blog! Can't wait to read your ideas, recipes and tips for living a simpler life. Definitely blogroll worthy!
Hi Lisa,
Glad you found me! Let me know when you plan on coming up next – I'd love to have lunch and learn more about the Berkshires (I'm a west coast transplant). In the meantime I look forward to following your food adventures!
interesting blog, enjoyed going through your various posts!
Thanks, and thanks for stopping by!
If youre in CT,check out CTBites.com for great new restaurants,including organic ones.You dont HAVE to go to NYC for great food and fun…just sayin..
Thanks! One of my friends told me about that site, and it looks really good. I have to remember to check back on it. And you’re right – there is some pretty good food out this way.
