I got my new blender yesterday :)
I ordered it at the vegfest in Glasgow last weekend.
And it is awesome. First dish I made in it was a carrot soup. Took 7 medium carrots, 300ml of warm water, a little curry powder, a pinch of salt and 5 minutes later I had a hot, raw, bright, creamy soup. LB was sceptic but he loved it :). This afternoon I will make a 35 second jam. No cooking, no added sugar. Can't wait. But first I have to have my hair cut and do the weekly shopping.
Last weekend with my daughter was a blast. The days just flew past and Tuesday afternoon came way to quick. One thing I have dicovered is that being vegan does certainly not equal healthy!!! While they had plenty of 'good' option at the vegfast, there was even more 'junk' around. Especially chocolate and sheese. I did sample a lot!!!!
Sunday we had a slow start, made some brownies and an apple crumble before we took the bus into town. Edinburgh has got the biggest christmas market I have ever seen! Even I started to feel a little bit christmassy :). Later that afternoon we went to Casa Angelina for afternoon tea.
Monday morning we walked about 4 miles to the beach. After all these years I am starting to see sights and places I never knew about. You really see so much more when you walk and have time to take things in.
In the evening we went back into town and after another stroll over the christmas market, we went to dinner at Henderson. Yummy!
Tuesday we only had enough time to walk to the Gyles to look for an outfit for her christmas party and make some pizza.
As happy as I am to be with my man and our dogs again, I do miss having her close!!!!
Better get some work done before I knock of @ 12.
Happy Days :)
