herbivoria

It’s hard for me to get up to Trader Joe’s in St. Louis Park because the buses run infrequently during the weekend, but my sister came up and drove me. I slipped while trying to put something into the cart and did a swan dive into the refrigerated case which was pretty funny with my feet sticking out in the air. But after shopping at expensive co-ops going to Trader Joe’s felt positively thrifty by comparison. Do you have any idea how much $183 can buy you there? Eight bags of groceries! Including bourbon vanilla extract and a huge jug of grade A maple syrup. And they have tofu there for $.99! I bought many of the ingredients I need to make cupcakes although they don’t have vegetable shortening. I brought my copy of vegan with a vengeance so i could try to emulate the ideal pantry list.

Jeremy and I are vegan heaven. He opens the fridge or the cupboard and can’t decide what to eat because there are so many options.

My favorite easy comfort food is:
+ Nature’s Path Organic Flax Plus Multi-bran Cereal
+ Freeze Dried Strawberries
+ Fortified Vanilla Soymilk

Yum! And the Omega-3s are awesome for my moody brain.
