Happy 2006! Any veg-related resolutions you care to share?
The holidays were a lot of fun around our house, with family visiting and plenty of food a-cookin’. Let me see if I can remember everything we (we being me, my wife, or any member of my family that visited) made… fresh Vietnamese spring rolls (a staple), veggie pho, chocolate chip cookies, butter Earth Balance cookies, coconut pancakes, pumpkin waffles, stuffed butternut squash, vegan pierogi (SO perfect), samosas, lemon-pineapple bars, pumpkin cookies, coconut-lime cookies… the list goes on. Pictures forthcoming.
Aside from the minor conflicts mentioned earlier, the food all went over well. My dad even made a special batch of his Christmas cookies vegan and my in-laws were very flexible about eating (mostly) vegan while visiting us.
I even shot a video that I’m planning on editing down and posting here. How exciting will that be?! Not very, let me tell you!
Here’s to hoping for a wonderful year for all of you. And if you’ve resolved to go vegan this year, let me know how I can help.
While my resolution doesn’t involve dipping my toes into the vegan pool (15 year vegetarian though!), I am resolving to spend smarter (by which I mean not only make better purchasing decisions but also buy local foodstuffs as much as I can) and also to cook more out of my garden this summer (last year we ended up canning all our veggies for wedding table favors – it was fun but a bit sad to see all our veggies gone!)
no resies for me, but care to share the vegan pierogi recipe?
I’m going to try to find a new, better job, and if that happens, an apartment with a nicer kitchen.
I hope I can cook more and rely on processed foods less.
Please share the vegan pierogi recipe with me also. I have my grandmother’s recipe for regular pierogies that I plan to try to conver, but a tried and true recipe seems more appealing with all that work.
