Fueled by earl grey tea (but don’t worry – NO TEA NEAR THE BOARD!), we had a very busy, very green diva show this week. Somehow, between having our wonderful Green Diva Jamie back in the studio, and Green Diva Gina sitting on mic, GD correspondent Nomi’s awesome report, guest Green Dude Seth Leitman’s report from [...]

Where does that Earl Grey tea come from?

I was sitting at my desk last week staring at my tea cup, which is ALWAYS full of some form of earl grey tea during the daylight hours. My love of this tea goes back far enough that I’m not really sure when I became hopelessly hooked, but it was probably my summer in England [...]

As always, we had an action-packed show with a lot of information between the bawdy jokes and general ribaldry. It must be spring . . .

More Meatless Monday Recipes: Easy Healthy Crunchy Salad

green diva meg's crunchy healthy salad

I’m having fun documenting Meatless Monday recipes these days! I made up this yummy, marinated salad years ago with whatever I had in the refrigerator that particular day, and it worked so well that I now try to make it on a fairly regular basis. My carnivore-turned-vegan husband LOVES this salad and can’t get enough [...]

As a Green Diva I get all kinds of green gadgets and gizmos sent to me to review and a thousand press releases about more that I don’t even see. With all these glittery green products sparkling in my airspace all the time, it is hard sometimes to remember that one of the most important [...]

This is our first spring in the new home. It is thrilling to see the hundreds of tulips poking through the snow dust.

Another Meatless Monday: Green Diva Goddess Roasted Veggies

Green Diva Meg's Roasted Veggies, Chickpeas and Goddess Sauce

All my days are meatless now, but I thought I’d jump on the Meatless Monday thing since it is a really great idea. My husband is still a reluctant vegan, so I’m always in search of good transitional meals that satisfy his belly and taste buds. Yesterday, while perusing Pinterest (endless eye candy), I came [...]

Warm up with a Delicious Raw Winter Salad

GD_Meg_winter_salad1

  It is a cold and rainy day here at GD HQ. I should be craving hot soup or something, right? But, what I really want is veggies – fresh, crunchy, lovely veggies. Oddly enough, I just don’t feel like cooking, but chopping and prepping? Sure! Plugged in my earbuds and some new music I [...]

Rescue Me: Green Diva Meg on turning 50 with Grace

Gracie_Flowers1

I was the youngest in my family – by 8 years – and thusly spent most of my life trying to catch up. I never loved being the baby all the time, yet always found myself attracted to older people and perpetuating my role as the youngest. But this week, the delusion that I was [...]
