Ok, so after shoveling my car out of the snow, I have treated myself with the hot chocolate recipe, only with almond milk...and it's delicious! Another great use for maple syrup. I love the organic syrup I have, as it comes from friend at work who has a small farm. 
Thank you again, Trinity.

Wow! Maple syrup from a friend's farm... YUM!Ok, so after shoveling my car out of the snow, I have treated myself with the hot chocolate recipe, only with almond milk...and it's delicious!

What a great treat after all that effort! That maple hot chocolate is just like a hug warm from a friend on a chilly winters day.
It was so chocolatey! I even forgot the vanilla, lol, but it didn't matter.
I am very lucky to have a friend with a farm.
Her maple syrup is really, really good.Wow, that's brilliant!
I've seen plenty of make-from-scratch hot chocolate recipes, but they're always really complicated and involve a blender component and all the rest of it. This is so simple and sounds so delicious! I'll probably try this this evening The weather has remembered that it's Winter the past week and it's gotten really cold out again, so this is definitely required drinking Lemon pancakes and maple syrup; banana; tea
Tofurky kielbasa on a roll with sauerkraut, caramelized onions and mustard
I'm not sure about dinner. I'm still full from lunch.
I did sample quite a bit of batter and ganaches from making a cake, though, haha.
I might just have some roasted veggies. I have carrots and potatoes.

It is really delicious and you wouldn't believe how simple and easy it is to make.
Vegan Sundried Tomato Tapenade
Ingredients:
200g green or black pitted olives
40g sundried tomatoes
1 medium clove garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
- Soak sundried tomatoes overnight and then drain off the soak-water. If you use pre-soaked sundried tomatoes you will need about 80g of them rather than 40g.
- Blend together well with a hand blender to make a pâté.
Thank you! I make plain olive tapenade a lot, but I never thought about a tomato one. It sounds delicious, and I will definitely be trying it.
Today is basically a repeat of yesterday. Going for convenience this week on account of long work days.
Two clementines and a vanilla soy latte from Starbucks
Kidney bean curry over basmati rice
Dinner will be sauteed onions and green peppers and leftovers from the cubed sweet potato and chickpea dish
I didn't bring a snack because I'm hoping I'll get home from work in time to have some almond milk hot chocolate and half a chocolate chip scone. I was rummaging through the freezer last night and found a lone scone hiding toward the back.

I love that when it happens to me. The other day a brownie popped out ! I can't tell you how happy I was.
