'Cus I'm a Lunch Rock Star

I see you there eying my plate of delightful veggies and grains. Yes I'm a lunch rock star.

You ask: "What do you eat?" Me: " A plant based diet."

On this episode of Lunch Rock Star

A G brings tofu teriyaki.

Coworkers: " Wow, you made that?"

G: "Yes, Yes I did." ( because hello I'm a rockstar)

Sending Love in the Mail

This month I sent ma copine Melissa some treats. I thought I’d go with a most beloved VWAV recipe for peanut butter oatmeal cookies. They are a perfect mix of sweet, earth balancy, crunchy goodness. Melissa wasn’t the only one to get in on the cookie goodness. I also took a dozen or so in to work on Monday and they quickly disappeared.

Next month I’m going to totally try to sort out a recipe for the ultimate trail mix cookie. Possible ultimate trailmix cookie ingredients: Dark Chocolate chunks, White chocolate chunks, coconut, almonds, cranberries, golden raisins, cashews, pistachios, oats, pumpkin seeds and maybe papaya. Hmm or maybe I'll make my mothers Congo squares which are the queen of all chocolate chip squares. *

It is a bummer that I don’t live near a coffee house that carries fresh baked vegan treats. Everyone has a day when they need a sweet treat with their soy latte and NYTimes.

* I need to bake for a living. There are far to many people in this world eating subpar sweets.
