Vegan

I've never had the original, so I can confidently say this is "Better than Bailey's Irish Cream".

• 1 can coconut milk (14 oz)
• 2 Tbs Brown Sugar
• 2 Tbs Chocolate Syrup
• 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 3/4 cup (Irish) Whisky

What do you do when your local co-op seems to stop carrying your favorite (and only) vegan pop tarts?

If you're Jill, you order a whole case from Amazon.

We head they were relocating the Turkeys, and we haven't seen them for quite a while. After walking the dogs we found them on the end of our street this morning. Yay!

We visited Portland this weekend. Vegan options everywhere. Dog friendly everything. Bike friendly streets. Apparently cheap compared to here. Everyone seemed friendly. Did I mention the vegan stuff?

Jill saw a flock of about 20 females and 3 males just a few doors down this
morning. Apparently the males didn't like her being there and started to
aproach. I wish I could get her to take the video cam down there, but she
didn't want to create an embarrassing scene of turkeys chasing her down the
street.

Well, the unturkey came out great! Getting it to unroll will take a bit of tweaking. Jill says we won't use that stuffing recipe next time. We used her own gravy recipe too.

We're not having a traditional dinner today, we usually don't. We've celebrated thanksgiving on the weekend afterwards with friends; vegan, vegetarian, and otherwise for years. The tradition started when we were in college. Additionally my birthday sometimes falls on thanksgiving and Jill's follows soon after so it also makes for a time-saving triple combo.

My friend Penney just pointed out to me that the recipe for Unturkey can be found online at unturkey.org!

Jill is a great cook and lucky for me she enjoys baking. Here are pictures of some of her cupcake creations. All the recipes are from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World.
