Does it taste good too, or have you just looked at the photos? :P

I'm hopless when it comes to burgers, so I found a reason to buy an other cookbook. According to one of my friend, I'm addicted to cookbooks. :P

I haven't made any recipes using the book. I usually look at cook books for inspiration and make up my own recipes.

Furthermore there are many ingredients in the book that you can't find in Europe.

I've been meaning to make some seitan burger but haven't got around to making a batch.

The best burgers that I have ever made are mushroom flavoured tofu burgers. You have to get the texture and taste right if not they are a flop.

Where did you buy the book Mikkel and how much did you pay for it ?

I found it on Ebay. $16 + shipping. I was the cheapest one there.

What kind of ingredients? And can I buy them on Iherb example?

I'm using cookbooks as inspiration myself. I have a couple of books that don't have that much vegan food in it, but it's always possible to veganize it, get ideas and learn more about cooking. One Norwegian one, have a lot of how to prepare vegetabiles too.

I have this in my Amazon cart. It has good reviews. You guys are making me want to make veggie burgers! :)
 
Post office: I asked for a couple sets of the new Harry Potter forever stamps, but they were out of them. :( I guess they're really popular. ;)I can order them from the website if I really, really want them. I wanted them for my stamp collection. Yes, I have a stamp collection. It's completely disorganized. Before I could leave, the employee put out some sheets of other special forever stamps. I decided to get a sheet of the 1963 March on Washington 50th anniversary stamps. That was 9.60.

Vet's office: (1) 24 can case of Hill's Prescription Diet K/D for cats (for renal health). I also wanted a couple bags of HPD K/D dry food, but they were out. They'll get more in on Wednesday. Damnit I picked the wrong day to go. The canned food cost $44, but my Sabrina has kidney problems, so the vet wants her eating this stuff.

Petsmart: More cat food, both dry and canned. I went in looking for a certain type of cat litter which they didn't have, but I had cat food coupons to use up. Some of this stuff will go to the animal shelter. I also have a Petsmart rewards card which saved me 97 cents on the food. Wow. :p

Target: 2 Synthroid prescriptions. I only wanted one of the two doses I take because I have lots of the other one, but when I checked back with them they had filled both doses. Oh, well, I got both. I also bought:

5 cups of Chobani Greek yogurt
5 bottles of drinking water
1 compact mirror, coupon
2 bags of salad mix, coupon
1 Amy's frozen dinner, eaten
1 jar of Grey Poupon mustard
1 container of McCormack's garlic powder, coupon
1 bag of cat litter, coupon
1 box of cat litter deodorizer
1 8-bar pack of Dove soap, coupon
1 4-pack of light bulbs, coupon
2 light blue plastic (and therefore unbreakable) dinner plates
1 box of Cascadian Farm Cinnamon Crunch cereal - coupon

I spent $61 and change after coupons and 5% with my Target card. Combined with the cost of the Synthroid, I actually spent less than $100 at Target today. Quite unusual for me. ;)
 
Dollar Tree:
bag of frozen peaches
bag of frozen veggies
2 jars of pickles
jar of banana peppers
box of magic erasers (I've never used magic erasers before so I'm hoping they work)
bottle of hot sauce
1lb bag of black beans
1lb bag of pinto beans
2 large cans of diced tomatoes (for homemade salsa and marinara sauce)
Dora the Explorer christmas wrapping paper for next year marked down to 50 cents
 
This LED night light (hasn't arrived yet):
