Dough Dough
Made some pizza dough, then went off shopping, and when I came back.....it could speak English and was on its way out the back door. We recaptured it and got three pizzas out of this batch. Let me tell you, pizza is one of the most inexpensive and delicious things to make in the world. Have you ever had it? Each of us made our own. Mine had anchovies, green peppers, red onion, green olives, fresh garlic, tomato sauce, and a little cheese. Yum. My sis made a vegan one, and my dude made one with 4 lbs of cheese.

When Good Food Goes Better....
It has been so extremely hot here that I couldn't resist turning on the oven to make some vegan chocolate almond cupcakes with real Nutella frosting. They are pictured here with my work gloves and power tools that I used to construct them. The recipe was out of Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World. Those girls know cake.
Yesterday I had a sister date at the Laughing Planet burrito bar. The special for this month is a tofu Ethiopian burrito. Damn. Cabbage, Lentils (which make vegetarians randy according to the Two Fat Ladies), Potatoes, Carrots, some kind of really good sauce, brown rice, etc. Very delicious. Also pictured with the special burrito is a LP made veggie burger, which we agree to be the best in the region.
Oh yeah, I lost my little pastry bag! If anyone knows where it may have wandered off to, please let me know. I'm about to make flyers.

Bunny Cake & Bean Dip
I made a double layer vegan chocolate cake with chocolate icing. The bunnies you see on top frolicking in the mud are chocolate grahams, with crushed bunnies on the sides. It looks sort of like a psychadelic freakout now that I come back to the picture.
There is a vegan baked bean dip recipe floating out there that is majorly delicious. Baked beans, nutritional yeast, onions, garlic, spices. Puree and demolish. It is so good with tortilla chips and cheap to make that my sister and I have made it for every event this season. I will continue to make it until each and every person in my town gets tired of it.

Pupusa: A Dream Come True
Recorded my new album in Chattanooga recently and dropped in on my favorite Mexican street food style place, Jalisco (see older post). I have been dreaming of the pupusa since February. This photo is the ACTUAL one I ate, and it was more beautiful than I remembered. Chattanooga's finest.
