'Lotus Spicy' with Brown Rice from Lotus Vegetarian $7.95 Diced Soy Protein sautéed with Dried Tofu, Celery, Organic Carrots, Green and Red Bell Peppers, sprinkled with Peanuts in Spicy Kung Pao Sauce. Spring Roll on the side. They added new items to their menu since the last time I visited, so hopefully I'll try something new next time.

Chickpea Cutlets and Sweet Potato Fries with Curry Sauce (Vegenaisse and Curry Powder) for dinner.

A Pumpkin Chai Nicobella Truffle for dessert. Gone through some temperature changes, but still tastes great.

Coming up: Working From Home

Monday, October 10th

Lentil Dal Burger Sandwich $6.49 from WF's for lunch.

Plus some Crinkle Cut Fries from the hot bar. Can't say 'No' to Crinkle Cuts.

Veganomicon's Simple Seitan with Heinz-57 and boiled Celeriac tossed with a mixture of Soy Creamer and Whole Grain Mustard (Blech. I've done my Celeriac duty this year).

Raspberry Jam Swirl Crumbcake for dessert.

Crinkle Cuts were the highlight of the day.

Sunday, October 9th

Lunch was a bunch of stuff off Wegman's Salad Bar with Fresh Gourmet Croutons and Goddess Dressing added to my own Red Leaf Lettuce when I got home. Make sense?

A bowl of mega spicy Black Bean Soup with a cooling dollop of Sour Supreme (thanks for the hint, Rose!) for dinner.

Followed by a Tofurky Roast Beef Sandwich, because no matter how satisfying dinner may be, I still must overeat.

Half a Sticky Fingers Chocolate Chip Cookie for dessert.

Coming up next: Stuff I eat on Monday!

Saturday, October 8th

Lunch was at Great Sage. It has been several years since I'd been here and apparently I've really been missing out.

My 'Ginger Snap Cookie Cocktail' $9 - Domaine De Canton Ginger Liqueur, Van Gogh Vanilla Vodka, Frangelico, Soy Milk and Spices. Brown Sugar crust on the rim of the glass, little Cinnamon Stick stirrer.

'Spinach and Artichoke Dip' to start $10 - A warm crock of house-made creamy Artichoke Spinach Dip with Daiya 'Parmesan' and Toasted Crostini. Fantastic! One of the best things I've eaten in ages, and that includes everything.My 'Club Sandwich' $12 - 'Turkey', 'Bacon', Romaine Lettuce, Tomato, Guacamole and Vegenaisse on Toasted Wheat Bread. Served with Kettle Potato Chips. I can't wait to go back!

Mr SV had the 'Chili and Brown Rice' $12 - Chili Bean Trio served with Brown Rice, Fresh Baked Cornbread, Sauteed Garlic Broccoli and Blackened 'Chicken'.

Mr. SV had room for dessert, the lucky b*****d! 'Raw Chocolate Mousse' $7 - Extremely rich, powerful and silky smooth, made with Raw Cacao, Tahitian Vanilla and Agave Nectar.

Five hours later, I enjoyed the leftover Spinach & Artichoke Dip for dinner. Still great .

No dessert for the second night in a row. I'll make up for it soon enough.

Friday, October 7th

Breakfast was at Busboys and Poets. Tofu Scramble with Home Fries & Vegan Sausage $8.95.

A mid morning Coffee Drink from Bourbon Coffee. Drinking this made me feel like VaVa -- 5'2" tall and lookin' to kick *ss.

Crispy Burger from Loving Hut for lunch.

Why start eating healthfully at this point? American Flatbread Pizza for dinner.

Pretty darn enjoyable.

Thursday, October 6th

$5.99 Wrap & Soup Special from WF's -- Veggie Wrap...

and a cup of Mushroom Barley Soup.

Dinner was leftovers from Sunflower-'Curry Supreme' (Chunks of Soy Protein served with Broccoli, Potatoes, Mushrooms, Carrots and Green Peas in a special Japanese Curry Sauce).

Mocha Almond Fudge and an Uncle Eddies PB Chocolate Chip Cookie for dessert.

To all who noted the amount of sweets stored in my home: it's just that I like to know it's there, just in case. Never know what I'll be craving.

WTF Wednesday

It is a WTF Wednesday extravaganza.

Hummus, Everything Bagel and Olives all courtesy of Wegmans for lunch.

Dinner was another Soup Mix. Assembled by Amy, it included TWO spice packets for lots of Southwestern Flavor, aka spiciness.

This was so spicy, it was almost inedible. But I ate it anyway.

Nothing on the dessert trolley appealled to me so dessert was Wayfare We Can't Say It's Cheese on Club Crackers.

It might actually be a garage seat draped in a towel, but it is two-tiered and on wheels, so for all intents and purposes it is a Dessert Trolley.

The Cookie Trolley showcases my love of Uncle Eddies PB Chocolate Chip (usually enjoyed crumbled on ice cream), along with all things Snickerdoodle.

Here comes the Candy Trolley! A bag of Peanut Chews is a must have in any vegan home.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Tuesday, October 4th

Asian Tofu and Steamed Vegetables (One pound exactly for $7.99) from WF's for lunch...

Chickpea Cutlets and Sweet Potato Fries with Curry Sauce (Vegenaisse and Curry Powder) for dinner.

A Half Baked Truffle for dessert.

A website that's new to me and I found quite hilarious.

Monday, October 3rd

Moroccan Lentil Soup...

and a Salad from WF's today.

Dinner from Sunflower-'Curry Supreme' (Chunks of Soy Protein served with Broccoli, Potatoes, Mushrooms, Carrots and Green Peas in a special Japanese Curry Sauce).

A Ginger Green Tea Nicobella Truffle for dessert.

I got a bag of Mrs. May's Almond Crunch out of the office vending machine this afternoon $1.50. Testing the strength of my teeth is something I enjoy, so I will buy this product again.

Sunday, October 2nd

It was 'Seitan Making' weather today -- cold and wet. Thus, the remainders of Stroganoff for lunch.

Veganomicon's Simple Seitan with Mashed Potatoes & Roasted Brussel Sprouts for dinner.

In preperation for hibernation, dessert was a really old piece of a Sticky Bun from Vegan Treats via Loving Hut. (A little white frosting from a different dessert got stuck to it).

Some Chickpea Cutlets were made today as well, so look forward to seeing those this week.

Saturday, October 1st

A Groupon induced lunch today at Foode. Fries were shared as an appetizer.

My Veggie Plate $10 -Potatoes, Mushrooms & Green Beans.

After all the Potatoes at lunch, I knew I wasn't gonna be having Potatoes at dinner. Boca Chick'n Patties and Roasted Brussel Sprouts to the rescue.

Wayfare We Can't Say It's Cheese on Ezekiel WW Bread for dessert. They definitely can't say it's cheese.

Gussied up with a sprig of wilted Parsley in honor of MoFo.

I like to say that every day is MoFo here. Because it is.
