On Saturday, I put down my gardening gloves for a moment to take a photo of this 35-ton sling that was sitting in the back of my husband's truck. The photo does NOT do it justice.
More yard and garden work this weekend, along with my ongoing obsession -- Italian sparkling mineral water. It started with Pellegrino, but I have now settled on Whole Foods Market's store brand, which is just as good.
Mostly.
You may notice a new widget at the bottom of some of my posts. I'm going to keep it up for a week or so to see if I like it or not. I thought that it might be handy because my site can be difficult to navigate at times, and if someone is here looking for linkage or vegan recipes, the widget can point you in the direction of similar posts.
If you find it annoying or to be a distraction, or if it doesn't work properly, please feel free to drop me an email. If I'm not satisfied with it, I'll remove it soon. I just wish that it wasn't so ... bulky.
Here are some links that I've enjoyed recently:
Book: Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World
Authors: Isa Chandra Moskowitz & Terry Hope Romero
I endorse this book wholeheartedly.
So far, I've made golden vanilla and basic chocolate cupcakes as well as rich chocolate ganache topping and vegan cream cheese frosting. (Our favorite combo is the chocolate cupcake and cream cheese frosting.)
There are so many more cupcakes in this book that I intend to try ... apple cider cupcakes, coconut lime cupcakes, and green tea cupcakes, just to name a few.
Besides being vegan, this book also offers up some gluten-free, sugar-free, and low-fat options.

"Five senses friday", installment four. Special thanks to Abby.
