Sooo, I may be posting with a bit more frequency!
A vegan bulletin board I frequent, The Post Punk Kitchen is having its own version of NaNoWriMo, for those of the less verbal and more uh...hungry. Anyway, they've given us freedom in what we exactly want to do. So, I'm hoping on updating once or twice a week, posting some food porn (if I can find my crappy digital cam) and writing about the process or something. I'm aiming for making at least 20 new things this month, whether by my own design or new recipes (I have some cookbooks so I'll be using those)
For the beginning, I have no picture for today's dinner, but its soup which is never all that pretty anyway. But its soup, and that is very exciting for me because I've pretty much not eaten since the 20th of October. I've been doing the Master Cleanse, which I tried in January but gave up after like 2 or 3 days. I drank spicy lemonade for 10 days, and a day and a half of grapefruit juice, finally eating some soup today. I'm not sure I'm excited about the spice mix I made (Middle Eastern Mix, Ibzar), in a soup. I could see it being good on seitan, or beans or something, but not in a soupysoup. Its not bad, but I think the cinnamon in it is throwing me off. Its also a random assemblage of veggies but thats just because I was shopping whilst being a little hungry and a little more hungry for variety.
For eating, finally I was allowed to eat. I was supposed to only eat a few bits of vegs and a lot more broth, plus a few little rye crisps. I had some rye pretzels, soup, probably too many vegs, but I don't feel sick, plus a little rye bread, and (oops) some chips. Oh and a little soy yogurt, to help the digestion along. FOOD is exciting!
Finally, after my digestion has hit levels safe for eating whatever I want, I can have some fun!
