A needed update

I'm a slacker. I haven't written in awhile. I have a ton of recipes I need to put on here. I'll get to that soon. I am doing very well with the whole Vegan things by the way. Despite the occasional cravings for some real, easy, food. I always have prep to do. But that's where Qudoba's comes into play. Fast food that I can eat. Mexican, but they have a veggie burrito and a delicious salad with beans and such. Oh and I took a normal old recipe for Choc chip cookies, and instead of egg, used egg replacer, and subed out some butter for applesauce and 1/3 of the flour for whole wheat flour and made some delicious cookies! It's about time. There are only a few things I miss with this Vegan thing, 1 is pizza, like delivery, not home made, and 2 is cookies and 3 is convenience. I feel awesome, and I'm in the process of quitting smoking, which will make me feel even better!

I'm still working on leaving less foot print. There are somethings I can't convince Evan, well I can tell him, but if I'm  not with him, he forgets. The whole bring your own bag thing, and using less water. When he's not home, the trash can doesn't get nearly as full, but I can't figure out why. As soon as I finish my Self Hypnosis book I will be reading another Green Book, or Vegan book. The Skinny Bitch girls came out with another book. It's half a cookbook and half a how to live type book. I read the first couple pages, it's not as mean as the others. This is post getting married and having a baby, I think it made them chill out a bit. And it turns out, her husband in a French Chef, so this helps her inspiration. The cook book is more normalish, no crazy ingredients.
