Warmest day of the year yesterday!! Flew my kite again, took a lot of pictures, and baked these jammy dodgers! It took me about 3 hours. They turned out very luscious!
Went and bought Ponyo and watched it last night toooooooo.

i added smelly peas from a can (peas in a can pie)
and dossled it with curry ketchup. strong curry!
i also baked up some ugly flat cookies that tasted good. they were cocoa peanut butter chocolate chip. tasted like brownies.
i came home from school early and finished spidermen III and watched van helsing.
getting ready to go to target to buy party goods and services.
and stop by appleworks & the lye-bary.

Today was such a loverly day!
adree picked me up about 11 and i had made pecan sandies for the easter celebration at her aunts house. we colored eggs and made up easter baskets for a name we drew. i got her aunt theresa, and adri stuck a cigarette in it and i put it in the stuffed bunnies bow. she loved it! hehehe.
i chowed on guac and spree candy.
sugar headache!
then i rode my bike to mandys and watched Prince Caspian (ooh hoo hooo! ben barnes!) with taylor, on the couch eating peanut butter out of a trough jar and eating crackers. we also played with her new bunny Pippin! cutest little scraggly bunny i've ever seen. he would bite the skin on my fingers and yank! then he lounged in the sunlight. too much cuteness. mandy got home and we talke-ed and listened to rasputina and lay on her bed.
magical!
Here is the recipe for the Pecan Sandies. veganized from martha stewart.

• 1/2 cup earth balance, room temperature
  
• 1/2 cup packed light-brown sugar
• 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup whole wheat white flour (spooned and leveled)
• 1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat "butter" and sugar until light and fluffy; beat in vanilla and salt. With mixer on low, gradually add flour, beating just until combined. Fold in pecans.
2. Roll dough into 1 1/2-inch balls, and place on two baking sheets, 2 inches apart. With the dampened bottom of a glass, lightly flatten each ball.
3. Bake until cookies are golden brown, 15 to 17 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer to wire racks, and let cool.

homemade vegan dried cherry-choc. chip sandwich cookies with my fudge cocoa frosting in the middle.
a hit!
"you would sacrifice a cookie sandwich for matt?" to adree.
i combined the 'coconut chocolate chip cookies' recipe from la dolce vegan, kept out the coconut and added dried cherries and then in the middle of the cookies i spread my fudge cocoa frosting (the best frosting this side of the sea)

we have a family thanksgiving tomorrow and mom made an army of pilgrim hat cookies!
they are fudge stripe cookies with mini reese cups dipped in yellow icing to place on the top, then a miniature chiclet for the buckle.
they are very cute and very un-vegan.
Mom and I have watched Gilmore Girls ALL DAY LONG and I have layed on the couch sleeping and looking pale like a vampire, according to mom. we are about to go to the store and buy ingredients for the meal tomorrow.
i am making 'smlove pie' from veganomicon. i will post later with pictures!
