Feeling equinoctial? Minnesota isn't. . . unless. . . maybe. . . do you think wires were crossed somewhere along the line, and we've actually been delivered the southern hemisphere's equinox? Because the three inches of snow that fell today (give or take an inch) do not say 'spring' to me. I had to combat the awful weather and low light with second breakfasts this morning:
I'm so excited about this Easter weekend. I shall list the reasons why: a four day weekend, chocolate, food, family, FOOD, and also -- almost forgot! -- food. Things I plan to eat in the next few days include (but are by no means limited to, oh no, no, no!): vegan mac'n'cheese, a donut, vegetarian 'chicken' pot pie, an apple dumpling and a lot of cereal. (A bowl of cereal is The Perfect Food. So satisfying to eat, AND it keeps you hydrated!)
S and I are planning our day tomorrow around the creation of the Mac Daddy mac'n'cheese recipe from the Veganomicon. The recipe has had great reviews around the blogosphere, so we're pretty excited. There may have been some LOLCats-speak involved when we were discussing the macaroni, and I swear it wasn't even on my part. S is lactose intolerant, and I almost never eat pasta, so it'll be an exciting day for us both.
But I'll admit that I'm (by leaps and bounds and entire marathons) the bigger food geek. And I'm preparing for all out geekery.
We just got 12" of snow. :/ This does not scream "spring" to me, either.
Happy delicious weekend, though!
