That's all I got. I am struggling to survive through the last two weeks of my first year of grad school, so maybe once that's over (and before I venture of to the UK for 3 weeks!!) you will see more from me. Enjoy lovies!
Oh helloooo, I've been meaning to post this recipe for weeks (okay maybe months) now. I just made it again tonight along with those sexy falafels from the Thrive Energy cookbook. I have been missing Garbanzo since I moved here, so I wanted to make something as close to that as possible. I accompanied the tabbouleh and falafel with hummus, romaine, and this vegan tzatziki sauce. It was wonderful. I love Mediterranean food.

Get ready for some word vomit. So yesterday I went on an insanely wonderful grocery-shopping + cooking-spree and reminisced on the good old days when I actually kept this blog somewhat current. Then today a peer mentioned this blog out of nowhere...obviously these are signs from the universe that I need to get back to it! Gotta represent my vegan pride! There are a multitude of reasons why I haven't updated this blog in a while: 1. I broke my camera USB cord and was too lazy to order a new one off Amazon. 2. I made some not so appealing eats. 3. I made some super delicious eats that I stuffed in my face too quickly to photograph. 4. I had a full time job + the responsibility of planning/preparing for grad school. 5. I moved to NORTH CAROLINA for grad school. 6. I live with a strict carnivore who also happens to be a male (along with another male roommate) and as a female and vegan I can't help but be wary of the atrocious amount of bacon grease/animal product residue contaminating my kitchen due to a general lack of concern for the thorough cleanliness of our dishes and counter space, etc. 7. Did I mention I'm in GRAD SCHOOL?!?! Sooo yeah...that should about sum it up. But today I am resolving to get back into food blogging. I still don't have a way to import my pictures (other than my phone) so bare with me. Mayyybe I'll muster up the energy to order a USB. And we'll see how this goes. As I mentioned before, I went on a cooking spree yesterday. And as I usually do, I searched for a decent recipe based on a single ingredient. That ingredient happens to be pickled carrots. Let me rewind...sometimes I get weird pregnant lady cravings for pickles and Oreos...and right after I got my brand-spanking new Costco membership I bought a 2-jar pack of dill pickle spears...which also happened to contain some carrots and red bell pepper (I passed on the Oreos in case you were concerned that I might have picked up a 24000 pack or whatever). So my first jar is almost depleted...except for the veggies chillin' at the bottom. I don't like to waste stuff, so I decided to find a fitting recipe for the carrots! I found this recipe first, and decided to go with it. So glad I did, because it is so simple and delicious! I don't have a picture of my veganized/simplified version, but I do have pictures of my dogs ;) Yes. I am obsessed. And I miss them. You're welcome.
OKAY, here's the recipe... First of all, these are not vegan. Second, I don't know where this recipe came from, but how did I live before I knew about it?! Third, if you're allergic to pistachios, this post is not for you...and that is a very odd, unfortunate allergy to have and I am sorry. Maybe you can try a different type of pudding! Lastly, I am sorry my pictures are almost painful to look at. My camera is six years old and no longer stays on for more than 15 seconds at a time. A new camera is definitely on my list of priority purchases.
