Busy Weekend
So far this weekend, I have:
Gone to the doctor's office
Called my sister
Made the following Thanksgiving dishes:
- Vegan macaroni & cheese from the Veganomicon
-![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
gaudior's yams with pears (thank you! Also, immersion blenders are amazing!)
- Mushroom-port gravy from the Veganomicon
-snaegl's pumpkin pie (I substituted vegan yogurt for eggs and it didn't come out as fluffy as I wanted, but I grated my own spices so it was delicious anyway. Had a problem with the oil pie crust sticking to the parchment paper and had to press it in by hand but it was tasty).
- Olive cashew bread scrolls from Bread Machine (delicious!)
Then we went torax's family's place and played Beatles Rockband and drank a delicious lychee sake that rathdei found, and ate waay too much delicious food. Rathdei, do you remember the name?
Hiked for 3 h in Middlesex fells w/ab3nd. "How do you get to the parking lot? Follow the orange trail. It's about 20m." 60 m later, Googling a map: "Hm. That....that would be another 3 h of walking." Eventually we did get back to the parking lot.
Made 2 kinds of fudge (vanillia and chocolate-marshmallow) and one kind of thing that should have been penuche fudge w/nuts but instead became caramel due to a cooling error. Oops.
Put up massive amounts of Christmas lights.
Watched a great movie ("Heathers") w/rax.
Ordered new clogs since my old ones got a mysterious huge hole in the bottom and getting new ones is $20 cheaper than having the shoe repair place fix the old ones.
Yay!
