Vegan Pizza

( All )

Pizza night. Whole wheat thin crust, red peppers, tomato paste pesto-like, zucchini, fresh thyme, mushrooms and “tofu feta”.

Risotto

( All )

Risotto is like slow motion wet popcorn. That with herb bouillon and dried veggies. Two of probably the last of our home-grown tomatoes of the season, the last of the fresh basil, carrots and some potato herb bread in the back. With bread, not quite this level of artisan bread

A pistachio crunch thing with mousse inside at the Laurier Ave. Second Cup. It’s different. And a hot chocolate with vanilla bean shot. And all the powders they have — vanilla, chocolate and cinnamon on the whipped cream because life is short. And a hummus-veggie wrap. And some lovely sun and one on the patio.

At the Junction of Summer and Fall

The end products: cauliflower/sweet potato sauce over orzo and in the pots of the squashes. Green beans and cucumber salad with sunflower seeds. After boiling the cauliflower and sweet potato, puree. After making a roux, seasoned with dried sage, fresh oregano and pepper, adding almond milk and scoops of the veggie puree. Last of my [...]
