DO VEGANS LIKE LIMA BEANS? – AND HANDY TIPS FOR MAKING A VEGAN STEW.

DO VEGANS LIKE LIMA BEANS? – AND HANDY TIPS FOR MAKING A VEGAN STEW.

 
I have to tell you, that up until this past week, this vegan has never liked lima beans, canned, frozen or any which way.. No siree-bobaroonie!

We used to have them (Yuck!) at home when I was a kid and not a vegan. They would come in a big bag brought into the kitchen by my father(vegetable farmer) after he had visited a vegetable and fruit processing plant (the name escapes me at the moment-but “littlest sister” would know). She remembers all that stuff.

A VEGAN BREAKFAST SURPRISE

A VEGAN BREAKFAST SURPRISE

Good Day,

Let me begin by telling you that I have my apology ready. In my last post I said that I would give you the recipe and the play by play of making Chocolate Coconut Macaroons. But stuff happened- was out latish last nite at my husband’s after Xmas,  Xmas company party and I woke up feeling lazy. I would have to get dressed, do the groceries, make the cookies, take the pictures, clean up and write the post. It …

So, I did some research on the definition of a whole food, plant based …

MY BLOG IS LIKE A BOX OF VEGAN CHOCOLATES……

..YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU ARE GOING TO GET.

Good Day,

These are very  wise words (adapted to fit my needs) spoken by Forrest Gump in the  movie of the same name. I must say, this is one of my all time favorite movies and I can and do watch it whenever I get the chance. It doesn’t matter if the movie is almost finished – I can and always tune in and am able to relate to it on some level.

My blog, which is in its infancy, is about many things. It was born …

MY VEGAN BREAKFAST (PART ONE)


Look at those beautiful colours!
Another early wakeup call, although this is not the norm anymore. I often used to wake up so early, even before the crack of dawn, and I would always be resentful of those in my home, cats included who were sleeping and sometimes snoring peacefully. Laying (or is it lying?) in bed hoping to go back to sleep usually does not work. 
about a quarter to four… Boo!

So…..

 I jumped(well, not quite) out of …
