white beans and bunnies!

I love end of term. I love the delirium, and the not-sleeping, and the out-and-out stress of it all. No, actually I hate all those things, but I DO love how productive I get in all other areas that aren't school. I made a bunny! It's for my sister, and I'm seriously considering starting an Etsy shop (even though that would mean getting a - *shudder* - credit card). I could see myself sewing on summer afternoons on a regular basis, plus I'd get to make adorable things all the time. Also, supplemental income - always nice. (she's wearing an apron which makes her OK for a food blog, btw ;)

Onto the white beans! What better than Vcon pasta fazooool to throw together in less than 15 minutes so I can pretend my priorities lie with paper-writing and not in the kitchen? Nothing, it's totally the best thing! I liked this a lot, though the inclusion of beans in anything pretty much guarantees I'll be nuts for it. And I totally stand by eating this on spaghetti, it ups the challenge factor, and you can't slurp tiny pastas as far as I know. (at least, not with the modicum of neanderthal grace I allow myself when I'm snarfing noodles alone, ha!)

And yummy lunch today was Vcon hot-sauce glazed tofu, baked sweet potato and really really cheater baked beans (white beans + bbq sauce). More than enough fuel to proofread. And not get distracted by Harvest Moon. With any luck! Course, I am stuffed and groggy now and could use some time attempting to woo the bartender's daughter, hee hee. I'm so responsible. :)

(as for the tofu, it was spooky - I could almost sense the tempeh in the store calling out for this marinade, insisting that tofu was way better suited to more delicate things. I only vaguely recall what tempeh even tastes/feels like, but I'm pretty sure it would rock so much more than the 'fu here. That said I was practically sipping the leftover glaze!)
