This is not a Pudding
Happy April Fool’s Day! I hope you had an exciting day. I love hearing the funny stories on April Fool’s Day. My favourite this year was IKEA’s Highchair for dogs. Did you like or take part in any pranks? Surprise all of your friends with this vegan pudding. I swear it tastes just like the real thing! It requires about 10 seconds to make and uses no stove top. I think I like it more than regularly dairy pudding. Topped with frozen cherries and cinnamon This pudding gets its creamy texture from soft tofu. The secret to thickening it is guar gum. This stuff works like magic! Chocolate Vegan Pudding Makes…

Vegan Brownies
I have to confess that since I have started my Vegan Fridays I have been hoarding vegan recipe books. My favourite so far has been a book you’ve probably heard of, (in fact I wouldn’t be surprised if it was at your side right now) it’s called Vegan Cookies Invade Your Cookie Jar. This is a great book. It has so many tasty, easy, and interesting vegan goodies in it. I plan on making many recipes from it! I also have requested Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World from my library and wait patiently for its arrival. From all the books I have been reading, I have learned…

A Bake Sale and Coconut Hot Chocolate
Before my post today I want to say how sad I am about the earthquake in Japan. About a year and a half ago I went to Japan for three months as an exchange student. I have not been able to contact my host family but luckily they live in a part of Japan that was not affected. I love Japan so my heart has been broken due to this tragedy. All my prayers go out to Japan and those affected by this disaster. On a lighter note, this week I participated in my first bake sale! I was so excited. I love bake sales. Nearly every day there is one somewhere…

Vegan Gluten Free Coconut Pancakes
It has been a goal of mine to make a special gluten free and vegan dish for a while. I have also wanted to experiment with coconut milk. Today I finally got around to doing it! I must say the result were scrumptious. The perfect winter morning breakfast has definitely got to be pancakes. Especially as the week upon me is going to be freezing. And what better way to dream of summer than with the tropical taste of coconut? I don’t know about you but I love coconut. I love the taste, the smell, the texture, and even the shape. Right now I am imagining myself sipping the milk…

What Color are You?
Last weekend I went to a retreat that focused on the True Colors communications style personality test. This test focuses on what type of person you tend to be when working in a group. It also builds a model for understanding yourself and others. It is called True Colors because you can either be labelled as gold, blue, orange, or green. Gold is responsible. This color represents a need to fulfill duties in order to organize and structure life. People who are gold are practical and sensible. They believe in hard work. Blue is compassionate. It represents calm. Blue people are very emotional and caring. They tend to put others before themselves. Blue people…

Apple Peanut Butter Wrap
School is back in session and I’m as busy as ever. My week has mainly consisted of lectures, work, skating, the gym, volunteer training, freezing in the cold, more work, and then a little bit of studying and blog reading. Blah…. and by the way happy late 1/11/11! That’s January 11, 2011. Just take a look at all those ones! In case you did not know this day was supposed to be one of good luck and achievements.
