...12.30...Over the Weekend...

...we started this chilly rainy weekend off with some hot cereal...I vaguely remember Malt-O-Meal from my childhood...it's a lot like cream of wheat...and Mom must have occasionally gotten it when we were little...I added sugar and cinnamon and ate it with toast...
...we did the weekly shopping in the pouring rain...it definitely made the stores less crowded...
...I don't think there's a single noteworthy thing...just a basic regular shop this week...
...the Man said he wanted some Oatmeal Cookies...so I got out my recipe box...I've had this disk with the Quaker recipe probably since we were first married...it's easy to find it in the box because of it's shape...
...very easy to veganize...just vegan butter and vegan eggs...flax seed goo works well in this one...
...I used mostly miyoko's butter...but a good sized chunk of Violife as well as I wanted to use it up...
...so many cookies...
...about 3 dozen good sized cookies...they wouldn't all fit into my largest Tupperware...
...I think I'll only make half next time...haha...
...and then while the oven was on for the cookies...I made a batch of my favorite vegan tofu feta...
...then we did a little bit of housecleaning...remember when we pulled the stove out for the remodel and I said that if I'd give it a wash every week it wouldn't get all gunky-grimy...so I'm trying to remember to do that every weekend...

...things are sort of getting back to their after-Christmas normal now...

~Wishing you a lovely start to your week...

  3. WOW! Yeah! I can comment again!!!! So happy! Wish you a very very happy new year!
    Oatmeal cookies are my family's favourite. I always cook a big batch before christmas and decorate them like reindeer, with small pretzels as antlers, cherries for the nose... Even if they are grown up, the kids aks for them ;-)
