Supper/Dinner Time! What's on the menu ?

I had the most amazing grilled Violife cheese sandwich. Two nights in a row. :lick:
What kind? Fresh Thyme now carries many Violife varities

I had fresh green beans, mushrooms and onion and a slice of whole grain toast with the last of the Daiya havarti

Lucky you. ;) I still cannot buy it in our stores over here. I have written to the firm. Apparently they are looking into how they can implant their products in French food stores. :up:

This is not fair: we have many vegan cheeses over here, including several "Violife" varieties, but i don't want vegan cheese at all (i don't want any cheese). OTOH, you would like to have some adequate veg cheeses, but you can't always get what you want. There's some inconsistency about it.:sniff: You should come to SPb (or Moscow at least)! (I doubt you would like Moscow though, lol).:D

I can buy it online but it's far more expensive plus you have to pay P&P. I written to the company and apparently they
are looking into the matter. Moreover, there is very little demand for pb cheeses over here.

You are right about Moscow; I wasn't keen on the city.;)

It seems to me, you were telling me about visiting Moscow: i just can't remember which year it was. Was it in between your visits to SPb? ...And yes, Moscow is a lonely, dusty, messy place with very polluted air. People are not as rude as i had been told though. Anyway, we spent only 7 hours in Moscow the last time, and i was fed up with this place.

I've been twice. Each time we started the tour at SP and then went onto Moscow.

Indeed, as we spent approx. 5 - 7 days touring Russia.
Anyway, if i understood it correctly, (the last time you were telling me about visiting SPb in 1986 and in early 1990s), - i think you are very brave (that you decided to go on a tour to Russia): most people prefer Thailand, Indonesia, or even French Polynesia, but not Russia, because they are still afraid (mostly of what they are being told by mass media). Maybe, one day, you think of a trip to Russia again, as a lot has changed here in 2.5 decades.;)

I must have been there in 1992. I worked as a tour manager and it was not my choice to go there. ;)

A tour manager! What a difficult job! Communicating with lots of people is definitely not my cup of tea, and i can't imagine me doing this kind of work.:eek::D But at least, you visited the cities with the most developed infrastructure. If you visited, lets say, any town of insanely popular "Golden ring",- you would be horrified by the pathetic conditions people live in, and by the absence of basic comfort. Honestly, i was shocked, having visited Yaroslavl' this year (plus Kostroma and Rostov). ...Kazan' city was better though. I have no illusions about going to Yekaterinburg in May,- moreover, it will be hard, as i'm probably going back on my own, but we'll see if it works.:)
 
I made a sandwich with some leftover Gardein barbecue tenders. I toasted the bread and added vegan cheese, pickles, onions and a little vegan mayo. It was delicious. I had some tortilla chips as well.
 
I made Instant Pot chili with white, pinto and black beans, and Trader Joes soy chorizo. I also made my favorite cornbread with jalepanos and corn kernels

I'm eating out of the freezer tonight: veggie pot pie.
