So, lunch today. I battled with falafel and I lost. I don't know what happened. I used the same recipe that I always do, but for some reason, when I fried them, they completely fell apart. It was super frustrating.
Anyway, after the falafel kicked my ass, I decided that General Tao's Tofu would be the way to go. Yes, everyone in the world's favorite recipe from VegWeb, but I did it with tempeh, and made some other alterations as well. And while it doesn't taste like the General Tao's I remember from Chinese restaurants, it's still damn good.
Dinner tonight is probably shitty salad and an apple. Buuuut I don't have to work tomorrow, so it's Mexican night! It would just be taco night, but I'm going all out and making churros too.


AHH! I don't know why the picture is sideways.

omgz first post!!!

Well, here's the story. I want to start eating better, and become vegan. Really, the only reason I haven't made the change yet is because I'm lazy. That's it. Laziness. When I make actual food, it's almost always vegan, but then I'll go and make Macaroni and Cheese and mes everything up, or someone else will cook, and I'll eat it because it's there. And it is ridiculous because I am going to school for culinary arts starting in January. Annnd, not only am I assuming that I will be the only veg*n in that school, I think I'm also the only one that's working in fast food. So, I'm basically a total hypocrite. On a better note, after culinary school, I'm planning on/hoping to open a vegetarian (but mostly vegan) diner.

So, I just ordered a Laptop Lunchbox, and I'm totally excited for that because I am going to start bringing my lunch/dinner to work with me so I don't eat shittttt. So, after this post, I foresee this blog turning into a place to pour my adventures (and probably misadventures) in veg*n cooking, and occasionally some venting about life itself.
