I’m older, not wiser…

Hey everyone – where’s February gone?  I started back at uni today (had my first Criminal Law lecture – the law is really for the rich white folk, isn’t it?).  So here’s my boring February catchup.
It was my friend Tiffany’s birthday mid month.  I, of course, made her a handbag, but she gave me the wrong address.  Have you gotten this yet Tif?  If not, you’ll have to wait until the middle of the year for me to make you another!

Isn’t the fabric purdy?
Food.  Mmmmmm fooooooooood

Fancy tofu, beetroot and sweet potato salad.  ‘Twas yummy (I baked everything except the greens)

This is the tofu and potato dish from Vegan With A Vengeance.  It’s too hot to move to the bookcase to find it.  Seriously – I’m so sweaty my arms are getting stuck to the desk here!

I call this grotesque, but tasty lasagne.  Double recipe of my usual white sauce with a bolognaise made out of (fake) chicken nuggets, with a layer of sliced mushrooms and lasagne sheets.  Crack in a pan baby.

Cam made this for me while I watched the Oscars (I had the day off work – yay!).  There’s marinated mushrooms, fancy tomatoes, sundried tomato oil, fried fry’s burgers (ha), macadamias, greens and yummy white bread.  Mmmmmm I wonder if I can get this for dinner tonight?

And, ‘cause I’m a dork, here’s Charlie from my law group’s stand at Market Day.  Isn’t he cool?    

VeganMoFo - catchup!

EAR would like to welcome his new little nameless friend.  Anyone got any suggestions?  I think she's the cutest one I've made yet (I have a crab in pieces, but reading case law seems a little more important right now!).
But here's more exciting stuff.... Food!!!

Mmmmmmmmm gargantuan sandwich.........

Bittersweet's Pizza Scrolls with VCON cashew ricotta.  Yummo!

BTLT (Bacon Tofu, Lettuce and Tomato).  Can you tell EAR wants to run away with it?

EAR and the new toy are fighting over who gets to be in the picture! Tee hee.....
Hey guys,
I have exams in two weeks, so this is going to be my last post for a while.  Cam, on the other hand has already finished exams (grrrrr) so I'm handing over to him.  So here's my final catchup before my last exam in November!!!
Amy out.....

Unhealthy yumminess

Howdy.  Yes, I'm a lazy blogger, but between work, my trip to Melbourne (blurry pics will be in the next post!) and other stuff, it's been a little busy.  Enough empty apologies, you came here to see food pictures!

Vegan Fish and Chips!!!!  We took the Vegetarian Cod Fish slices (available from Asian grocer - it's like an oval shape with seaweed around the outside), mushrooms and leek circles and made a batter with the following (actually, I just mixed the dry ingredients and added liquid as required):
1 cup plain flour, 1 tsp Baking Powder, 1/2 cup cornflour, 2 tsp salt, 1tsp sugar.  To make a full batch add 1 cup water and 1tsp oil.
Take to your mum's house when everyone else is having fish and chips and make everyone jealous with your fried goodies.  And OMG, deep fried leeks and mushrooms are just DROOL-worthy.  Seriously.

Amy and Cam's lazy burger (makes one burger):
Take 2 Fry's Burgers and bake along with 4 slices of Sanitarium luncheon.  About 10 mins after the beginning of cooking, add slices of Cheddar style Cheezely.  Assemble with tomato sauce and american mustard.  Pretty damn good.  The baking of the cheezely kinda enhances the cheddar goodness.
I'm waiting for permission to post details of the recipe for the lasagne (which is made up of about 3 different recipes)!  So here's a sneak peek!

It's fricking freezing here in Brisbane (or as I now like to call it - Brisneyland - thanks Bec!).
IronChefAmy out.

Checking in - I'm not dead!

Hey everyone!

Just checking in to say yes, I'm still alive. My thesis has taken over my entire existence for the last two (ish) weeks.

We have some photos waiting to be uploaded, but I'm waiting until the weekend when the 6th draft of chapter one is done.

Meanwhile, watch the 1995 P&P for me & drool over Mr. Darcy....

Tee hee!
