Still employed

The 10th was Aaron's birthday, so I decided to try making something neat. The picture up top is Butternut Vindaloo served in some kind of squash that i forget the name of. The recipe was from 'Vegan With a Vengeance', I just added cauliflower. I was just eating left overs with couscous and they go together well. We also ate it yesterday with a fried tofu salad. Dark green lettuce mix with halved cherry tomatoes, green onions and tofu cubes fried in olive oil with lemon juice, garlic salt and thyme.

The picture below that is an all-veggie meal that I decided to make. There are lemony-dill carrots, broiled string beans with margarine and sliced almonds, and mashed potatoes.

Below that is a fried rice which was delicious beyond all description. I don't even remember how I made it, so you'll just have to take my word that it was really really really good.

Aaaand finally there's a picture of the Double Fudge Oat Cookies I made from a recipe in "Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar' by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero. Its the sequel to 'Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World' and I can't wait to make more.

Not much to post lately since I made another batch of that Moroccan dish and we've mostly been eating left overs and cereal. I'm on a Cheerios kick right now.
Breakfast idea: I used to make Quaker's oatmeal with vanilla soy milk and brown sugar ever morning. I ate too much at once and got sick of it but I should pick some of that up again. It is tasty goodness.
Today was the zombie walk. Good times. I appreciate people's creativity in coming up with various zombie versions of just about everything. One chick had a fake pregnant belly with the baby's arm sticking out of her stomach. There was also a zombie Napoleon and more than one zombie Jesus.
Dinner: Afterward we went to the Green Room and I got a plate o'fried rice with tofu.
Dessert: I bought a Green and Blacks brand dark chocolate bar with ginger from the grocery store (Metro). It's got candied ginger bits in it and is probably my favourite kind of chocolate ever. They're fairly expensive as far as chocolate bars go (like 4 bucks), but it's way better to buy quality chocolate once in a while instead of crappy chocolate every day.

The other day my friend came over and we went to Subway. If you've never had their veggie patty you should give it a try.

I think I've done a fairly good job so far of demonstrating how many places there are to go out for food when you're a vegan. Off the top of my head there's Ethiopian, Subway, Japanese restaurants, Thai food, Green Room, Lick's, most places that have burgers also have veggie burgers, Middle Eastern places, Magic Oven, One Love, Full Moon (vegetarian Vietnamese place), King's Cafe, the Hot Box, the Pickle Barrel (they only have a few vegan things but they're good), and Fressen.
Obviously the number of available options changes depending on where you live. Toronto is very good for vegan food.
