Other than Ramen: Earth Day Every Day

Happy Belated Earth Day, Other than Ramen readers! Earth Day was Friday,  but this day really left an impact on me, so I decided to write a little follow-up reflection. It seems to me that every year our society as a whole becomes more and more driven to develop sustainable habits and conserve our planet.

Downtown Dispatch: Torched Goodness

Chocolate, vanilla, lavender, coconut, lemon and s’mores are all flavors of Crème Brulee that can be found around the Phoenix Metropolitan area in Le Cordon Bleu-trained chef Eric Ireland’s unique food truck. From the outside, the Torched Goodness food truck looks like any other food truck, but what is being made on the inside sets it apart from all the other run-of-the-mill food trucks.

Other than Ramen: Easter Egg Sandwiches

Remember when we were kids and it was part of the tradition to dye Easter eggs with family? My cousins and I would go all out with stickers, glitter and tie-dye in competition for the prettiest egg. It was always a sad moment when the beautiful, hand crafted shells of the hard boiled eggs would be broken in order to make deviled eggs or egg salad.

Palm Walk Runway: Colorful Palette

Many times people are always wondering what type of bag they should buy for the season, and this spring, the only answer is: a bright bag.  No matter what the style—a long strap bag, a drawstring bag, or a fun clutch—make sure you choose a color that definitely stands out. Greens are a definite color that is in.

Piece of Craft: Eggs as a Holiday Centerpiece

I’m not a religious person by any means, but I’ve always loved the symbolic meaning of the egg. During Easter, eggs seem almost too ubiquitous; they are hidden in the plastic form for children to find or they are hard boiled to eat for the holiday or to use for crafts.
