SOUP

I can't stop making soup. Seriously. I'm nesting like a mad hen and walking all over South Bay trying to shake this child out of me. This is what I've made so far...

Green Soup.  I made Nigella's pea and pesto and my fave veg soup with zucchini, leek, spinach and limas.

Vegan Peanut Butter Cups - Yay

 

I made some chocolate peanut butter cups today in honor of Valentines Day.

They are made with tofu but you would never know it!

You whip up some peanut butter and tofu and sugar and chill but stick your finger in it first to make sure its ok.

 

And you melt some vegan chocolate chips with a little coconut oil.  (I like Sunspire or Enjoy Life mini chips).  Then you put a little in the bottom of some darling candy foil, freeze for a bit, and layer the peanut butter combo & the chocolate and freeze again.

Try to contain yourself.

I Heart Babycakes

 

  

 

I went to Babycakes Bakery today.  I think it was the happiest place on earth.  Look at the girl above.  I think she was singing while she frosted and seriously, can the uniforms get more precious.  Just stop it.  My friend and I could barely make it to the register before scarfing one down.  Once I made it to the register I blurted out "Are you hiring?"  I think I'd clean frosting tubs for them.

Vanilla with vanilla cream filling and strawberry frosting is a must.  Even Silas liked the cookie sandwich.  (He thinks all vegan/gluten-free desserts have a hint of cardboard). 

I am eating the other vanilla one with breakfast tomorrow.  Why can't they open one down by the beach?

I love you, Babycakes!
