2 Year Veganiversary

April 2010 marks two years that I’ve been vegan, and over six years since I went vegetarian! One of the best personal decisions that I’ve made for myself. I’m excited about all of the things I’ve yet to learn.

I’m also a little over 50 lbs down from my highest weight 6 months ago, with only 30 to go! Getting healthy, y’all. :)

I missed you, warmth.

Spring has sprung, and the cat is trying to eat my beets. Just wanted to show y’all one of the things I’ve been up to for the past few weeks.  Today, I took a spinning class and then ate salad from my apartment balcony. What a great day off!

For those of you in Austin, I will be at the Cupcake Social at the Tiniest Bar in Texas, with FREE vegan cupcakes, on March 14th! Come by and see me!

Woah! It’s been a long time. Sorry for the hiatus. :( My life is kind of turning upside down right now with moving, working, culinary school, my brother having a baby, and on top of that, my laptop bit the dust about a month ago, so I had to get that fixed. Anyways, I’ll be moving to a new place in town on November 1st, so hopefully more baking and posting then, to break the new place in!

Melisser from the Urban Housewife came down to austin a few weeks ago, and stayed with me for a few days. It was a pleasure to have her around to put up with myself and Austin’s crappy weather! Also in that picture are crystal and UrbanCowgirl from the PPK who was visiting from chicago. I hope to visit San Fransisco at some point and drop by Melisser’s new bakery, Sugar Beat Sweets, when it opens! Austin is rooting for you, Melisser!

I’m also trying to develop some recipes for a delivery only bakery that I want to start here in Austin. So if I start posting less recipes, and more photos, you’ll know why. Secrets! I’d love to eventually have a food cart, too.

I’ll leave you with some pictures of some rice krispie treats that I made with dandies vegan marshmallows, when my local co-op started carrying them. so delicious. I love you, chicago soy dairy.
