2. What are the top 3 dishes/recipes you are planning to cook? I am going to make one of the pot pies from VCON this week as an early Thanksgiving-ish meal for Matt and I. (On actual Thanksgiving, we are going out to dinner with his family.) I’ll also be making cranberry sauce because I love the stuff!
3. Topping of choice for popcorn? Salt, garlic powder and nooch. Melted eb if I am feeling really indulgent.

Thanks to those of you who left comments on the last post!
Tonight (with the help of my bf) I made myself a personal pizza! Matt got some dough from our local pizza joint and I topped my little pizza with VWAV tofu ricotta, red peppers and pineapple. YUM…best vegan pizza this house has ever seen.
Hello all!
I haven’t been doing very well with posting because on Friday I got the most horrible version of the stomach flu out there! ewwww I am still feeling really weak and I haven’t eaten any solid foods yet.
So…help a girl out! What should I try to eat first?
Now that you are sipping you Silk and reading your favorite cookbooks, why don’t you get off the couch and make something! I would start with the Tomato Rice Soup from VCON. It’s actually quite popular these days.
I intended to post a food picture yesterday, but my flash drive broke. You may like this post better, IMO.
Go ahead and print out a $2.25 off coupon for Silk. Think of this as my gift to you. Well, actually it’s Silk’s gift to you. I am just trying to be greedy and take all the credit.
What are you waiting for?? Get yourself some Silk Pumpkin Spice and sip it while reading your favorite cookbooks, Veganomican and Eat, Drink and Be Vegan!
WAIT! Before you think I’ve called you a bad name…read this. Since I don’t think I’ll have time to finish my novel this month (har har) I’ve decided to post as much as possible in the name of veganism!
First real post beings tomorrow…
