One Girl Revolution

I'm giving this recipe for vegetarian Shepherd's Pie a try tonight. The tofu is prepared, but not yet cooked.

Now, I'm a big, BIG fan of the shepherd's pie. Big fan. Last had some at this place while on a business trip, with some of my beloved Bailey's for dessert. Now, I'm trying to eat more of the veggies and cut down on the extra cals, so I'm willing to give this recipe a shot and...forgo the Bailey's. Yes, I KNOW.

Problem is, I seem to have rotten luck when it comes to tofu dishes. They never taste like the natural dish; they ALWAYS end up tasting like...well, tofu. And I'm worried that this is going to turn into Shepherd's Pie Now With Tofu, which will make me most upset.

However, no time like the present, so off I go. Wish me luck!

When I went to bed last night, there was still just a dusting of snow on the ground. It had accumulated on the sidewalks and driveways first, but it hadn't even covered the grass. Then this morning, I heard the loud clanking noise that signals heavy equipment. I thought it was a garbage truck, but after about 20 minutes I realized it wasn't. So I looked out my window...



Holy eefin' crap, where did all this snow come from?





Well, I certainly feel justified in getting all my shopping done yesterday. And now that I'm snowed in, I can dedicate the entire day to getting things in shape for my love's visit. And cooking and baking, because really, what better way to spend a cold and snowy day? Maybe I'll document that, too! (Bread and marinara sauce pictures, anyone?)
