Remember when I pretended to own a food blog?  Yea, I’m thinking I should stop pretending and actually update this thing.

So since the last update:

• Graduated with my MBA from MIT Sloan
• Drove across country
• Moved to SF
• Started real life v2.0
• Been lazy about updating websites (but not about eating).

Today I woke up to pouring rain and decide to make pumpkin bread.   It was also about this time that I realized I didn’t have eggs, baking powder or half the spices needed. Phfff. Details.

Thanks to Google I learned 2.5 tbsp of ground flax seed + 3 tbsp of water can be substituted for 1 egg…so that’s what I did.  The other stuff…um, ignored.

The bread was still pretty good, I love improvising.

• 1 tspn baking soda

3. In a large bowl, add the pumpkin, oil, sugar and eggs
4. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix
