I keep reminding myself that New Year’s resolutions don’t last. I have to keep telling myself that, because right now my gym is packed. The dressing room is full of people putting on new sneakers, and the weight machines are full of people staring cryptically at the not-so-helpful illustrations of faceless male bodies and the accompanying terse Hemingway-esque...

Marshall is Hungry fell dormant after I moved to Boston but I’ve been blogging elsewhere- you can read my posts here, here, and here! When I was a kid, my favorite part of Mr. Rogers were the segments when we got to visit a factory and see how things were made, so when I heard...

I’m taking a break from my meat-free week to post a recipe that Kylin and I made a couple months ago- enjoy! I love eggs. Fried, scrambled, poached, omletted (?)- for breakfast, lunch or dinner. They are such a simple, versatile kitchen staple that I feel like I always have some on hand- in case a...

Well. I thought I was going to run out of exiting things to report, that everything was going fine, and aside from a little hunger from eating mostly plants, things were going swimmingly. Then I ate bitter greens. I was trying to think of something fanciful and protein-y to do with a salad, and I had...

I recently heard that Americans eat 1/6th of the world’s meat supply, a staggering number when you consider how small a percentage of the total world population we are- which made me do some serious thinking while doing my weekly groceries- I take it for granted that a large number of my meals center around...

Working lunch My office doesn’t have a kitchen. Instead, we have a microwave/mini fridge combo right in my office, which can cause problems ( I could drink diet coke all day without ever having to get up, thanks to the magic of chairs on wheels). What it also means is that, as far as office...

I wanted something tasty to go with my low-fat meatloaf, but didn’t want to totally ruin the work I’d done towards making something “low fat”- so I tried out these mashed potatoes. I was initially skeptical at how little butter they contained- typically, I don’t favor mashed potato recipes, I normally just mash up some boiled potatoes and...

I have been going back and forth on how to label this recipe- I almost didn’t want to call it “low-fat.” I mean, that is the name of the original recipe and I suppose it is technically low-fat. But to me, low-fat implies a sad, limp egg whites with turkey bacon kind of situation....

I know the long silence from my blog has left many of you bereft, like a ship without its mooring, wandering this bleak world wondering, “Why? Where?” The reasons for my absence are long and varied, and involve a combination of these words: travel, Mexico, lost camera, Montezuma’s Revenge, tired, work, sick, sick days, sleeping. Because of...

I am not a “salad eater.” Usually, sitting down to a nicely dressed bed of greens just leads me to growl, “I’m not a rabbit!” I’d rather be chowing down on a sandwich, or bowl of pasta. However, in an attempt to “grow up,” I’m going to try to change my relationship with salads-...

I’ve had a very wonderful, fun-filled past few weeks- and its getting better- after work (in a mere 20 minutes!) I’m heading up to the Poconos to have a mini-reunion with some college friends. With all this activity and traveling, I’ve haven’t even done a full load of laundry in weeks. Belong are some of...

It’s been a long winter, guys. People keep saying, “No, Marshall, it hasn’t. It didn’t even really snow.” Fair point. But. That doesn’t mean that the not-snowing, not-super-cold winter doesn’t drag on. I’m getting sick of the darkness, for one, and getting sick of wearing hose to work every day, and I’m sick of the...
