Easy Meals Plus Firefly Cafe!

Hi everyone! On Sunday, I made a big batch of fettuccine Alfredo (using a jar of Victoria Vegan Alfredo sauce, which was alright, but definitely needed more salt) and soy curls. The leftovers were great as quick lunches throughout the week! 

I also had some fun dinners with Field Roast mini corn dogs, tater tots, and veggies (pole beans, cucumbers) from my garden… 

And I made a small batch of rice crispy treats using mini Dandies marshmallows, and later, a plain zucchini bread… 

But the most fun food of the week was had today! I met up with my sister for a walk this morning; around lunchtime, we called to place an order for pickup at Firefly Cafe and Outpost. I got the burrito deluxe (with chips as the side); it was amazing but also super spicy! We ate outside at opposite ends of a picnic table at the park, and it was great to catch up with each other! 

I also picked up a small grocery order of some fun treats from the outpost! 

Here’s Daisy being her cute little self, settled in on my lap while I’m meditating…

Peace. :)

Pumpkin Dandies Rice Crispy Treats

Hi everyone! Short post today – the exciting food from this week was from Blackbird Pizzeria on Sunday; of course I forgot to take pictures, but I got a slice of mushroom pizza (so good!) and a cheesesteak, which is always great!

On Wednesday, I made rice crispy treats using the pumpkin-flavored Dandies marshmallows I’d gotten from V Marks the Shop. I just followed the recipe on the back of the bag, which was nice and simple – I melted the marshmallows with some Earth Balance and maple syrup and then mixed in crisp rice cereal. I brought them to D&D for a snack, and the group enjoyed them. I still have some leftovers for myself, though!

I made another batch of the kale and pasta dish on Monday, so the leftovers (plus avocado) were perfect for easy lunches throughout the week… 

In other news, I’m almost done NaNoWriMo; I’m at 42,000 words! And I’m currently reading Beasts of Burden by Sunaura Taylor…

Daisy was super cute today squeezing through the banister in the hallway by the stairs. She posed for some pictures before backing her way out…

And here’s sweet Leela!

Rice Crispy Treats

Hi everyone! So it seems like I'm on a roll with trying out recipes from House Vegan; yesterday I made the Lemon Coconut Rice Crispy Treats. This recipe has a short ingredients list, simple steps, and is super quick to make, but most importantly, it results in a scrumptious vegan treat! 

P.S. Here's an adorable kitty cuddle-pile from a couple nights ago; I missed seeing it in person since I was already asleep, but Zach made sure to take some pictures for me!
