I’m back, baby.
I’m also, fairly pathetically, living with my parents for a little bit right now. Whatever.
Well, first, they eat meat and there’s not too much here for me. So I went shopping the other day.
That’s kale!, raisins, Gala apples, parsely, firm tofu, Wheat Thins, Pardina (?) lentils, tempeh, and canned pumpkin.
I’m wicked stoked for the kale – I want to make some of those kale chips I see everywhere. The tempeh and pumpkin is inspired by Kath Eats. I know it’s pumpkin and not pumpkin butter, but we’ll see how it suffices. I love pumpkin so I’m sure it’ll be fine. If not, I can throw it in EVERYTHING ELSE.
Okay, also, I’ve been working on my latest zine and a guy from work said he’d hekp out and draw a comic for one of my recipes, which I am excited about and I think is a really cute idea. So here’s the shit we used:
Nutmeg, garlic, parsley, lentils, oil, and chestnuts. Can you guess? Veganomicon’s Chestnut-Lentil pate. Yeah, we are just that fancy. So I loaded it up, along with my food processor, and got on a train to his place where we proceeded to drink and cook…and burn the chestnuts unbelievably. And I scalded a lot of water because I was nervous and blah blah ANYWAY, hopefully, he got the main idea…haha! It was fun, anyway. And, I mean, we ate it. It was..okay. It tasted kind of like gourmet dirt. But not in a bad way. Oy. Also, a lot of the chestnuts had gone bad. Like, dusty, moldy, green, toxic bad. But whatever. Thanks for hanging out, Burbs.
So that’s my that lately. Maybe I’ll go make some lunch and photograph it for y’all. I sort of want to run right now, too, but it looks cold out. Oh, Maud.
