yummy chocolate chip-less cookies!

yesterday i was at first gonna make chocolate chip cookies but, we were out of choco chips! so i made the recipe with very few choco chips and it turned out pretty great:) and i had leftover frosting, so i altered it a little and made cookie sandwiches with frosting in the middle!
unfortunately the recipe i used is a secret family recipe, sorry. but i can give you another recipe for choco chip cookies from cok.net!
so for that recipe look in the recipe section:)
enjoy!

whew!

wow. what. a. long. weekend!
first i made snickerdoodles, then i made about 36 cupcakes and then i went out and ate lava cake! and it was also my my birthday! yay!
here are the snickerdoodles













and my cupcakes












and here's a picture of me and the lava cake! the lava cake was made up of a delish brownie cake with vegan coconut ice cream and topped off with some hot fudge. you can't really see the lava cake because i ate it up so quickly but if you look really closely you can kind of see it.  oh,  and here's Great Sage's website, greatsage.com/desserts_page
 














sorry the picture's kinda bad it was taken with my mom's phone.

Enjoy!

the animal haven.

oh my goodness, i can't believe that i have been blogging for a year and never told my viewers( wink,wink) about poplar spring animal sanctuary!

well, Poplar Spring Animal Sanctuary is a 400 acre non-profit refuge for farm animals and wildlife located in Poolesville, Maryland. they offer care, rehabilitation and permanent sanctuary for neglected, abandoned, abused or unwanted animals. they have a wonderful organization there. if you are ever in Poolsville Maryland, i suggest you drop by and meet their sweet animals.
animalsanctuary.org
enjoy,
grace:)
p.s. i usually don't do a ps, ah, well. oh, here re some pictures from the Thanksgiving with the turkeys. unfortunately i don't have any pictures of turkeys, only pigs. but this is where we throw the pumpkins in for the pigs, it was adorable:)  






























pancake breakfest! horray!

yay! my dad made yummy pancakes, vegan(of course) and also had a bit of chocolate vega (myvega.com/choco_lot) and here are some pics.
Enjoy,

Veg MoFo Day 4!

Yay! yesterday i made brownies!:D
the recipe is in the recipe section, BUT the recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar. i would use 1 1/2 cup, maybe even 1 1/4 cup. but they are still VERRRY yummy! be sure not to stir to much, or you won't get to taste the yummy moistness and fudgyness:)
enjoy!
