MiniMoFo #3: Welcoming Fall

Hello everyone! For the third MiniMoFo challenge, I made Coconut Pumpkin Bread, another recipe from House Vegan: Fall FoMo No More. It turned out really well; coconut and pumpkin are such a perfect combination! This is sure to become a traditional fall recipe for me!



I realized the other day that I haven't shared any of my sketches here recently, so here's the fall-themed art I did on Tuesday night when I went out with Zach and some of his soccer friends. The "tablecloths" were brown paper and they provided colored pencils in a jar on the table, so I decided to art the night away...



gourd

sunflower

pumpkin

corn

And now for some major cuteness...


As fall settles in and the nights grow colder, cuddles are certainly called for, so Cringer has been diligently working on softening Buttons up to the idea. One night she was bold and pressed her nose into Buttons' side, but that didn't last long (I tried to get a picture but Buttons moved before I could). So, on Wednesday night, Cringer settled for just resting her head on the corner of the purple blanket...



...but by Thursday night, something clicked, and they finally they settled in, side by side!








Daisy, on the other paw, works on getting close to Leela during the day. This endeavor is going to be more of a challenge because Leela really only likes to cuddle humans, not fellow kitties. But Daisy can be patient...



P.S. Less than one week left to sign up for Vegan MoFo! I signed up last night; have you?


Peace. :)

MiniMoFo #2: Foodie Crush

Hello everyone! For the second MiniMoFo challenge, I picked Hannah Teson of House Vegan. Last year, I had the opportunity to test some of her delicious recipes for House Vegan: Fall FoMo No More. Last night, I made Chickpeas and Dumplings, a recipe from her book! 


It was a fun dinner to prepare (especially the dumplings!), and it makes a very filling meal. (Zach thought it was good, too.) Also, the leftovers are great; I had some for my lunch today! So, be sure to check out Hannah's blog and book -- she is awesome and her recipes are always so creative!


Here's Daisy, Cringer, and Buttons sharing an open window to excitedly sniff the fall air yesterday...



...and Leela, all tuckered out and ready for bedtime cuddles last night...



Peace. :)
