My new thing for this week: I am going to switch up the spices in my chickpea cutlets. I always stick to the ones in the recipe, but this week, I am going to go for more of a Tex-Mex flavor.

Every time me and Blake going food shopping we each pick an item we have never tried before (usually from the foreign/imported section). Have had some interesting ones! Xxx

Sounds good!

Today I applied a wood screw to wood with a screwdriver instead of a drill. I'll stick with the drill, thanks.

Haha, my son just put up a pull up bar using no drill. He said next time he will use a drill, also.

Lol, I don't always measure stuff, but I use the Veganomicon recipe and plan to sub out some of the usual suspects and use chili power, cumin, onion powder and still include garlic. I also want to sub the soy sauce with Sriracha and put in cornmeal instead of the bread crumbs. I want to make a sauce with Vegenaise and more Sriracha.

I started learning a new hooping trick today.

I sautéed mushrooms today for the first time.

mushrooms + olive oil + the other stuff (brown rice, peas, cilantro, more olive oil, Tofurky kielbasa) = delicious

Hey, if you don't want the rest of it, you can just send it to me. Seriously.

The leftovers was dinner.

Well, the least you can do to make up for that is post the recipe.

Please.

I posted the equation. I don't really measure anything except the rice and the water (2/3 cup rice, 1 3/4 cup water, splash of olive oil), and the "kielbasa" (or "sausage") is always two links. The veggies always come out of a frozen bag after nuking it. The mushrooms were from one of those bin thingies, the whole thing. I count to five as I pour the olive oil into the pan. Sometimes I keep pouring after five.

I tried two new things last week: the Tex-Mex chickpea cutlets and a grilled tempeh sausage. I was never much for tempeh, but this was pretty good.
This week, my new thing will be doing squats with a 10-pound weight. I need to up the intensity a bit.
