about vegan and vegetarians
Dedicated to Vegans and Vegetarians who would like to discuss, share recipes, places to buy, etc.
Okay so my Hubby is laughing at me for starting this Group since I am neither. I am learning and very interested in learning how to cook and create new menu ideas. I have a Daughter by marriage who is vegetarian and I really do not have a stumbling block when it comes to her and cooking. Now enters a wonderful Friend of ours who is Vegan. We so love having her over for dinner and Family events. I just hate her coming up and having the same old things...I am learning whatever I make for us as meatetarians I can copy to Vegan with a little extra effort...meaning reading all ingrediants when purchasing.
So if you are interested in learning and sharing Please come in.
BTW I do love growing my own fruits and veggies...I have a wonderful garden every year and many fruits around our yard...many of you may already know this.

T-Man Yes do share Please...I have heard of white pizza and have tried so good!!! Never heard of white lasagna but always willing to try.
Kid...Speghetti Squashes are one of the easiest things to grow here...my children love them...BUT from buing I would throw the seeds after cleaning them out out in the garden and they just grew like crazy...over my fence and all. As long as you keep on your counter they last a very long time.

We have been surprised that the local Foodlion in Oxford has a wide selection of Vegan type foods...we have seen a few things at Super WalMart, of course there is always Whole Foods which is a ways from us...BUT seems more and more stores are getting a bigger selection.

Hili, come shopping at Whole Foods with me once, and your cooking life will never be the same. Cheese-and-everything-else-you-could-possibly-want substitutes galore.
Headlong, we'll just have to strongly IMPLY what the Irish "creme" should be used for...LOL

I am going to ask my dad if he will drive me to Whole Foods on Sunday when he comes to take me grocery shopping. LOL..I asked my doctor about driving and he said not quite yet but in a couple of weeks. BUT he did give me permission to ditch the crutches and gimp around with the boot outside and without the boot inside the house. Without the crutches, I've almost broken my neck 4 times (this morning!) tripping over the cat. He had a grudging respect for the crutches, mostly I think that he secretly thought that crutches might kill him if they touched him so he steered clear of them.
I want to make seitan now that I blogged about it, so hopefully my father will be down with a trip to WF so I can buy the gluten flour.

Crocus, ouch! I feel for you. Broke my ankle years ago...walking is one of those things we take totally for granted until one day when we can't do it. Glad to hear you're on the mend.

Today I torture the cat some more by crochetting. He just doesn't understand it. He is torn with the desire to cuddle with the afgan being made but then there are pieces of yarn that should be attacked. And heaven forbid he gets too comfy on it, because then I have to flip it over to get the next row and it disturbs his Highness. :D

My mother doesn't crochet or knit. I had a co-worker that used to crochet baby blankets for Duke hospital preemies and she taught me how to do a granny square. (her blankets were big granny squares) Since then I've been trying out new things and I thought this ripple was pretty easy until I noticed how much wider it was at the top. LOL.

I am still chuckling over my father. He came over to bring me a b-day card and then he started to talk. He's an engineer so sometimes he says things that some folks might censor. He's chatting away and then he starts talking about that the day I was born which was kind of sweet as he's never done that before. And then he says, "Well you know how your mom is with pills.", which kind of threw me because I wasn't getting where he was going with that as it was kind of out of left field. So he clarifies, "She had to take another pill for a rash so she ditched the birth control pills so she wasn't taking so many pills a day. And 9 months later there you were."
LOL. Thanks Dad! 39 years old and just found out that I was a mistaken product of my mother's pill phobia. :D
And on another note. The card he gave me Meows when you open it which terrifies the dog and irritates the heck out of the cat. Win/Win.

I would love to see the green bean variations. I have yet to make that casserole yet, but I love it when folks bring it in for potlucks at work.
