After waiting and waiting for Wegman's to put the Veggies out on the hot bar, by 11:20 I decided to give up because I was getting agitated. Loading up on Szechuan String Beans, Kung Pao Tofu and a Spring Roll worked out well anyway.

Since her Fry Sauce was so successful, tonight I made Elise's Baby Bella Stroganoff. I followed the recipe exactly (specifically the teaspoon of Ground Mustard) although I did add a package of TJ's Beefless Beef Strips and lots of fresh ground Pepper. Great easy recipe!

Dessert was the last piece of the Blessed Mama Chocolate Chip Pecan Bars.

Lots of Frontera Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot...

Enjoying My Veganism

Breakfast was a big juicy Grapefruit...

Lunch was a Whole Food's Salad (Toasted Soy Beans on top)...

Just in time for my delicious dinner -- my regular camera went kaput. Not to fear, here via a Nikon Coolpix is Morgan's Glazed Tempeh and Fries all drizzled with Elise's Fry Sauce. This sauce was just what I've been searching for my whole life! Thanks Morgan and Elise!

Dessert was a Blessed Mama Chocolate Chip Pecan Bar.

Dianne recently awarded me The Most Versatile Blogger Award, but this award has turned into a bit of a nightmare as I've since been unable to think up anything interesting or unusual to post about myself. I've subsequently come to realize what a huge bore I am. I'm going to pretend this award didn't happen and just move on with my life and my Frontera Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot...

Mexican, Indian, American and Chilean Day

Lunch was Tostadas made with Boca Crumbles and Taco Seasoning...

Dinner was Jalfrezi Sauce (with Morningstar Chick'n Strips, Chickpeas, Mushrooms and Onions) on Millet.

WF's Blueberry Pie with TJ's Vanilla Soy Creamy...

Lots of Frontera Cabernet Sauvignon/Merlot...

In Somber Remembrance

No levity today. Lunch was the Roasted Veggie Sandwich at Mom's Place...

Dinner was Yves Veggie Dogs and Zucchini Pancakes...Some clashing colors on the plate but all went down as one....

Dessert was a Blessed Mama Chocolate Chip Pecan Bar.

A bottle of Charles Shaw Shiraz....

All Kinds Of Stuff

Two of my burnt month-old Blueberry Muffins were brought for breakfast because I knew they had to be better than the Blueberry Donut Holes I brought yesterday. They were.

Lunch enjoyed at Panache. The pink crisps with my Hummus were like a flaky pastry crust. Light and fun.

Vegans often say that we eat a more varied diet than carnivores. Carnies (Small hands. Smell like cabbage.) never believe it. My "Panache Salad" is a perfect example of something I never would've eaten in a million years had both it and I not been vegan -- Endives, Green Apples, Dates and Cucumbers tossed with a Lemon Vinaigrette.

Back to same the old for dinner -- Tofu Scramble with Tofurky Italian Sausage and Potatoes.

The rest of the TJ's Cherry Chocolate Chip Soy Creamy for dessert...

A bottle of Charles Shaw Shiraz was imbibed as well.

A Quicky Post

I brought three of these Donut Holes for breakfast. All the Nutrilicious donuts I've bought in the past were fantastic, but these were no better than the burnt Blueberry Muffins I made a month or two ago. Just a heads up.

An unusual find on the Whole Foods Salad Bar -- Raw Kale Salad tossed with Lemon, Garlic, Nutritional Yeast, Cider Vinegar and one or two other ingredients. I loaded up cuz Deb said today is 'National Eat Your Greens Day'. Speaking of Deb, her daughter, Morgan's, Glazed Tempeh recipe is great. I didn't express it correctly yesterday that the Tempeh was great, I was just disappointed in what I did with the Tempeh. Capiche?

Back to lunch -- I also got some Quinoa with Squash and Chickpeas, Roasted Asparagus and Artichoke Salad just in case the Kale wasn't enough (but of course it was).

Dinner was Mr. SV's Spaghetti (Classico Red Pepper Sauce/TJ's Meatless Meatballs)...

Another Whole Foods creation for dessert....

This was one of the best Blueberry Pies I've ever tasted, if not The Best.

A bottle of Charles Shaw Shiraz was also enjoyed...

WFH Wednesday

I've been wanting to try the Tempeh on Tortillas combination ever since I saw this post from Morgan (approximately two weeks). Mango and Jicama Salsa is too fancy for plain old me so I made Morgan's Glazed Tempeh on a WF's Blue Corn Tortilla with Avocado, Shredded Lettuce and Hot Sauce...

It was good, but not as great as I was hoping. So next I tried Tempeh on a Yellow Corn Tortilla with Shredded Lettuce, Tomatillo Salsa and Sour Supreme. This was better (probably due to the Sour Supreme) Still not the stellar experience I'm looking for. A few more portions of Tempeh are left for future pairings.

Dinner was Okara Burgers and Roasted Potatoes.

Dessert was TJ's Cherry Chocolate Chip Soy Creamy...

Lots of Liberty Creek Cabernet Sauvignon...

A Predominantly Brown Day

I found some of the comments on this article to be extremely irritating, so I thought I would share it here so that others can be irritated as well. In the mean time, lunch was off the salad bar at Whole Foods....

Dinner was Boca Chick'nPatties with leftover Road's End Gravy and Zucchini Pancakes with Sour Supreme...

Dessert was a Blessed Mama Chocolate Chip Pecan Bar.

Lots of Liberty Creek Cabernet Sauvignon...

Tempeh & Tostadas

Lunch was the Tempeh Burger with a side of Tamari Dressing at Sammy T's. A great meal at a great restaurant to top off the three day weekend.

Because lunch was so filling, dinner was just some very simplified Tostadas (no cheese/olives/avocado). No room for dessert.

Lots of Liberty Creek Cabernet Sauvignon....

Soup and Sandwich and a Sweet

Lunch was at Mom's Place in Purcellville. This was a bowl of Stella's (Mom's) Lentil Soup which was again eaten with the homemade Bread instead of a spoon.

Dinner was Asmar's Veggie Tuna Salad on an Ezekiel English Muffin with Route 11 BBQ Chips on the side.

Dessert was a Blessed Mama Chocolate Chip Pecan Bar from the new batch I made. These were prettier than the last, so I'm starting to get the hang of them.

Lots of Liberty Creek Cabernet Sauvignon...

The First Third Of The Holiday Weekend Was Great

Lunch was at Sunflower. Mr SV & I both enjoyed a refreshing glass of Fresh Squeezed Carrot Juice.

Below is an appetizer of Spinach Wontons in Spicy Red Sauce...There are six dumplings nestled together there, absolutely divine.

We also shared an appetizer of 'Fried Chicken' (better than the real stuff)...

...and then I had a side order of the Organic Baked Macrobiotic Tempeh...

Dinner was Asmar's Veggie Tuna Salad on an Ezekiel English Muffin with Route 11 BBQ Chips on the side.

Dessert was TJ's Vanilla Soy Creamy with an Uncle Eddie's Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie...

Lots of Lost Vineyards Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon...

Soup, Sandwich, Seitan and Soy Creamy

Lunch was the $5.29 Soup and Sandwich Lunch Special from Whole Foods....

Dinner was Veganomicon's Simple Seitan covered in Road's End Organic Mushroom Gravy with Mushrooms, plus Zucchini Pancakes and Sour Supreme. Hey, I was hungry!

Apres meal, Mr. SV asked if he could have the rest of 'those Chocolate Things', so I settled for Trader Joe's Cherry Chocolate Chip Soy Creamy Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert as my treat...

Lots of Lost Vineyards Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon...

Food! Glorious Food!

Lunch and dinner were both carryout from Sunflower. (Mr. SV got promoted to Head Muckety-Muck this week, so we decided gorging ourselves would be a good way to celebrate). Lunch was the Mizuni Sansai Noodles (Soba Noodles) with Sauteed Soy Gluten, Wood Ear Mushrooms, Japanese Parsley, Bracken & Vegetables, tossed with seacress(green nori flake-gomashio(wtf?)).

'Curry Supreme' for dinner (Chunks of Soy Protein served with Broccoli, Potatoes, Mushrooms, Carrots and Green Peas in a special Japanese curry sauce).

Dessert was a Blessed Mama Chocolate Chip Pecan Bar. There's only one piece left, so I will need to make more this weekend (unless Blessed Mama herself (or her blessings) want to make me some more. Yes, I will accept your offer now).

Lots of Lost Vineyards Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon...

WFH Wednesday

Hard to believe anyone could forget Gardein Tenders and Ian's Onion Rings are baking in the oven, yet some how I did. They really aren't as delicious when they're burnt, but still okay.

Dinner was Chickpea Cutlets with Mustard Sauce (Vegenaisse & Dijon 50/50 stirred up w/Capers) and Rice & Beans.

Quite a few commenters seemed impressed with the other night's Trader Joe's Cherry Chocolate Chip Soy Creamy Non-Dairy Frozen Dessert, so I had that tonight again instead of Blessed Mama's Pecan CC Bars. Oh the dessert dilemma! Which is more delicious? One is creamy goodness and the other is chewy goodness. So confusing.

Plus a bottle of Lost Vineyards Shiraz/Cabernet Sauvignon...
