Now that Christmas is getting nearer and nearer, my attention moves from decorations (I declared them done, whether that’s true or not!) to cookies. They’re more important, if not the most, anyway, right, the cookies?! Or is it Santa Claus and the presents? Or is it family time and togetherness that’s the most important? Or is it to remember the birth of Jesus, which some scholars argue is not even in December? After pondering all these questions myself, I've decided that cookies are still ... continue reading...

Fiesta Friday #514
Oh my goodness, time is flying, you guys! It's mere days before Christmas. 17 days to be exact, and that's hardly any time at all. I'm not even done with my decorations; I'm still ordering stuff online! The front door needs “fresh” decorations. Not fresh like live greenery, but fresh like new, that's what I mean. The old stuff is getting boring. I'm envisioning something more like this garland that I put up in my living room. Isn't it nice? Please say yes. My husband thinks it's borderline ... continue reading...

Whenever the daughter comes home, I always make sure to stock up on vegan food items or ingredients. Like chickpeas and tofu. She loves those things! And as usual, I tend to overbuy.

So, did you all have a terrific Thanksgiving? I certainly hope so! I myself can't complain. Despite all the trepidation about putting together a vegan Thanksgiving for the first time, I thought it went pretty well. My family gave me a 10 for the effort, and we all concurred that the result was a solid 9. So, it was very close to being declared smashingly successful, except for one or two side dishes losing a few points due to being veganized. Overall, it was satisfying to see everybody ... continue reading...
Fiesta Friday #511
My family’s Thanksgiving Dinner menu is set in stone… normally. But this time around, I'm unable to persuade the daughter to forego her plant-based diet. So now I'm not sure what to serve. Of course she's assured me she'd be fine to just nosh on bread and a couple of side dishes as long as they're not served or slathered with butter. But c'mon now… I can’t have her eating just side dishes on Thanksgiving! I need to serve her a good… no, great Thanksgiving meal! And actually, even the side ... continue reading...
