I love Will Ferrell.
After yesterday’s mega sleep in, today I was back to the same routine…I had the day off, but still woke up early. I read in bed for a bit, but soon enough, my stomach said “feed me,” so I obliged with a steamy cup of joe and toasted Ezek english muffin with Earth Balance melted and lathered on to the max.
A repeat of yesterday, with soy milk and my new SF vanilla syrup.
This picture reminds me of snow white…I feel like I’m the witch offering a poisoned apple.
For lunch I was in a hummus mood (which is only natural since I’ve gone a full 3 days without sabra). FYI, I’m apparently a stereotype. Not JUST as a foodie, but as a white person in general…have you ever seen the this website, it cracks me up (and will explain my last statement).
WW tortillas and veggies with my sabralicious.
Sabra is my one and only (ok, except for carob).
My gym visit today was crap. I wasn’t feeling it, and being my fave time of the month, I wasn’t in any mood to push myself. I’m always looking for excuses…
On my way back from the gym it was pouring rain outside and I didn’t have an umbrella, so I was drenched and beyond gross when I finally got home. ALL I wanted to do was put on my PJs and curl up with decadent sweets. Good thing I had these chocolate & vanilla vegan lovies. They were exactly what I needed. Totally hit the spot. I described the ingreds of the tofu “cheese”cake cups in an earlier post, so you can check that out if you want.
Anyways, I did a couple loads of laundry, cleaned the SHIZ out of our apartment, and by the time dinner rolled around, I was ready to get my cooking on.
Seitan on the grill for 7 minutes (so easy it’s unbelievable).
I also steamed a bunch of veggies on the side (I added some vegan parm on top too).
After dinner my cousin’s hubby came over for some vino (he’s in NY for a work thing). Since my fam is so far away (back in CA), it’s always nice to get to see them. Plus, my cousin is preggers (awww), so he’s almost a first time father, which made catching up even BETTER.
We are members of the Tobin James wine club, so we get boxes of wine each season, and they never disappoint. Malbec is quickly becoming a fave.
You KNOW I made myself a fatty dried fruit dessert platter. Figs, coconut date rolls, and carob raisins, oh my!
Ok everyone, now head over to Caitlin’s page to win a Road ID. Once you read her post about Lindsay’s story, you can’t deny that it only makes sense to carry a form of identification with you when out, so why not try to win one for free!
And finally a HUGE thanks to all the music recs. I can’t wait to play on iTunes later to download some pump up jams for running. Wahoo! You guys are the BEST 🙂
Oh wow, your tasty fruit platter is scrumptious! =D
HA i am dying right now about the hummus, and the Chinese food commentary. SO many things on that blog literally describe me..and all of us basically 😀 I’m LOVIN my flax too! I ground it all up at once and put it in my fridge…I hope it doesn’t lose all nutritional value! It’s not a ton though so I’ll use it up soon. It’s kind of hard to remember though, b/c it doesn’t really add taste or volume ya know??
Your seitan looks fantastic!
Stay classy, Hungry Hungry Hippie!
Ahh, you’re making me miss NY!
What do you usually put on your hummus? I live in Israel (ok, I gave it away) and we’re reallllyy big on hummus here, but it’s always drenched in olive oil and other things (depending upon where you are) and I feel like it’s too heavy and not so healthy…

First of all, the Anchorman reference made me smile. Second, I’m not craving the Sabra hummus that’s sitting in my fridge waiting to be enjoyed. I LOVE their roasted red pepper one, but our grocery store was sadly out of it.
and thanks for the Road ID link! I’m definitely going to check Caitlin’s site out!
new music always gets me excited. I just download Top of the World by the Pussycat Dolls and Right Round this morning! Thanks for the london rec. I will pass it on to my sister!
i love love ezekial english muffins, i cant get enough! love your blog!
Did you see Will Ferrell: You’re Welcome America?? It was sooo funny! Diego Luna.
I have been reading your blog for a little while now…Great Work! =)
I definitely need to experiment with seitan! I’ve never had it before- do you season it at all?..
Hope you are having a good day!
I am so insane for your eats. We are like sisters. Hummus. Carob. Coconut date rolls. Dessert plates. Anchorman. Cleaning. Ezek. Wassup?
Just saw your shout-out about the carob, a few posts back (sorry that I’m so behind on your posts!!) – love ya!! 😀
Three days without hummus?! HOW DID YOU SURVIVE?! I would have curled up in a ball and died from detox 🙁
LOVE that website! I could spend hours laughing about those posts!
I love hummus with veggies! (they go together like PB&J!)
Apparently I am very white.
holy smokes all of this food looks SO GOOD 🙂
