I've been in a funk lately which I am beginning to think is caused by simple under-nourishment. It could be SAD, which I'm never even sure I suffer from because winter always coincides with SUPER HIGH STRESS TIME. For once I actually don't feel over-stressed. Since I dropped video (which I did, by the way,) I feel like I actually have the right ( Read more... )

Alright, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna see you guys on Friday (it was Friday, right? -- btw, sorry about being shit about being in touch -- we lost the cellphone for a while there under a pile of shit we're sorting out) and we're going to go through all our vegan cookbooks and come up with some recipes for you.

There's such a variety of food in these cookbooks that I feel certain we'll be able to find some delicious stuff. Then we'll scan 'em and I'll email you the document, 'cos I'm out of printer ink or I'd just straight photocopy. <3

We love you very much and this is something we can possibly help with.

Also, there's a lot to be said for nut milks -- almond is really yummy -- and egg replacers/silken tofu in cooking. And tofu scramble is delicious. I know y'all don't wanna eat a tonne of soy, we don't eat a tonne of soy, but there are other things like seitan and tempeh (admittedly soy-based, but fermented so your body reacts differently) that are yummy meat alternatives.

I thought it was Wednesday. :/ We too tomorrow too, though. My evening is free.

I don't really like tofu or tempeh. :/ I'll give seitan a go, I haven't liked it in the past but I haven't had it prepared well. I'm not at all sure I trust egg replacer though. What is that even made of?

I can think of plenty of things I can eat, (for example: vegetables and grains) when I can cook, it's just that my usual stock of little-to-no preparation foods is pretty much zero at the moment. When I have the time to cook it won't actually be much of a problem, and in time I'll build up a new stock of recipes and a freezer full of home-prepared foods I can actually eat that AREN'T meat -- bean patties instead of chicken patties, barley stew instead of corn chowder. It just hasn't happened yet.

I will definitely take a look at your books though. :)

Ack! That was me being dumb. The response below actually was Damian, though.

See, that's what I think would be the most impressive feat - 1) vegan food, that 2) avoids Nightshades (and Mushrooms, and Everything Else that Dani Doesn't Like), while simultaneously refraining from just using 3) TONS OF SOY. Anyway, regardless of whether this gem is available, we'd love to come hang out.
