The Ides of MoFo

Today (actually yesterday) is the midway point for Vegan MoFo. I am beginning to miss some things, like milk chocolate. I have some cravings for it, and I could make something chocolatey, but am not motivated to do so. And I really don't particularly like dark chocolate. Oh, well....

I managed to have lunch at my favorite Pho place, Kim Phung. Man, that place is a dive, but they can bang out some yummy food. I had ordered the tofu lomein, and was about to order the sweet and sour soup, when my girlfriends hubby pointed out it wasn't vegan. Why? Oops, pork. Damn. Had to skip it. I also picked up the turkey roll at Wheatsville today as I was starting to worry about the possibility of them selling out. Whew, got it!

Dinner was another yummy recipe from The 30 Minute Vegan. Pasta Florentine. Damn it makes a lot! 6 servings my hiney! I am going to freeze some, I sure hope it works. Anyway, I finally used the right soymilk. Usually I mess up and add sweetened soymilk, much to my families dismay. But not this time! Everything turned out excellent. Pasta, onion, spinich, basil from the front porch, nutritional yeast, soymilk, and vegan mozzerella (even though it was optional). Add a very crusty roll that I found at the local grocery store, and I was full! I may be ready to go to bed......night Veganland....

I need to bake!

Everyone should know that I am a crew member for the Breast Cancer 3 Day. I have so much that needs to get done before I leave town, but I want to bake so bad. So I have found an excuse to whip up a little something: Crew Day! We meet up the day before the event to train on the phones and other basic things we will need to know to make everything flow smoothly. But last year Alan and I forgot to eat and were absolutely starving at the end of the day. So I will bring some snacks for everyone on my crew, satisfying the need to bake and the need for food all day. I totally stole a recipe from another blogger and will make them Tuesday. How does Chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese and chocolate chip filling sound? I know.....sounds fabulous! I can't wait. So off to the store for ingredients......I will take a picture and taste them and let everyone know how they turned out. Should I color the filling pink for an added touch? It might make them look like they are bleeding......Ha Ha! But at the 3 Day, nothing is over the top.
