Vegan Mofo V Day 31: ¡Adios Mofos!

I'm sad to see mofo go. I really ran out of steam somewhere during the second week and it's been downhill ever since. Even though it wasn't my best, I decided to keep going and finish what I started. I might do some of the recipes that were skipped in the next few weeks to make up for it. I still need to go back and read tons of blogs I missed out on, there were so many great ideas this year. I have lots of pages bookmarked and my feeds list keeps on growing. I added a few of my new faves to my blogroll, but there might be a few I missed.

Today was super busy so I did not get any cooking done. After walking the dog and getting cleaned up, we went to my niece's school for her class party. Then we came home, had snacks and carved pumpkins. Before you knew it, we had to get dressed/painted to go trick or treating and we still hadn't had dinner yet. We decided to get pizza, throw some tofutti slices and bac'uns on it and call it a day. It's our laziest pizza ever, but we were too hungry to be picky.

I had to go get the pizza in my half assed costume, so I was greeted at the door with "hello kitty" and all of the workers meowed at me the whole time I was in the store. It was only a few minutes but it felt like forever. I didn't feel as stupid as they should have, but maybe they were really bored. If only they knew I had dressed up to match my dog's outfit, they would have had a field day. As tacky as it was, we did get a few compliments when I took her for her walk tonight. Happy Halloween Mofos!

Vegan Mofo V Day 30: Walk Quickly And Carry A Big Purse

Tonight we're going to the movies, so that means sneaking in our own vegan treats. I know it's not classy to do that, but I never said I was classy. I'm on a tight budget until my job starts, so I'll take whatever shortcuts I can. My niece school sells scrip for my favorite theater so I bought two $25 cards. That covers tonight's ticket and the next four movies too.

I bought the sour patch kids at dollar tree. They're the same size as the ones they sell at the theater for about two to three dollars cheaper. The Jokerz and twilight we got at whole foods, but next time I go to Viva La Vegan I am stocking up on Jokerz, Cleo's and Justin's peanut butter cups. I have been wanting to do a Justin's vs. Cleo's showdown for the longest time. I will win no matter what the result is.

Even though a lot of my recent posts have barely made the deadline, I'm not sure I'll be able to get one out after the movie, so I'm doing this mini post now. I had hoped to carve pumpkins and walk the dog before it was time to leave for dinner/movie, but after too much time at the stores, I don't have time to do both. I feel horrible whenever I cheat Penny's walk so I can go mess around, so I want to take her for her normal walk, even if it's a bit earlier it should be the same amount of time. I also do not want to rush my pumpkin carving. Last year I was in a hurry and barely averted disaster. I am hoping to make up for that by doing a much better job this year. These are from four years ago and are still my all-time favorites. Maybe that was the peak for me. I'll take it!
