Classic Candy & Old School Treats VeganIzed



Recently I read Now and Later candies are vegan. I guess I heard that before and never had the desire to check till last week when I bought a pack. I remember these from when I was a kid and I believe the Jolly Rancher candy in long flat stick form were lil treats at the corner store my mom would get us. They taste the same and now I want to try all of the wonderful artificial flavors! Matt says they taste like plastic - I say no way...maybe waxy but not plasticy!


Growing up my mom would buy an after dinner treat for us, be it cookies, pastries or an ice cream. We would grab ours right away because my dad would end up eating ours without a second thought. I loved ice cream cones - the little bit at the end of the cone with all of the chocolate - mmmmm...I would savor it so slowly. I can do it again (the vegan way!) now with Tofutti! Yours Truly ice cream cones. These are so yummy. The cookie crumbs replace the nuts perfectly, the ice cream is really rich - to me it has a hit of caramel...The winner is the chocolate nub at the end! Get a box of these now!

I promise I do not eat just vegan ice cream & candy!

Look At The Goodies I Received!

Over on Ravelry I took part in the Vegan Easter swap. I received my package the other day and was spoiled!


I got the softest organic chunky yarn - I want to make myself something with this, tons of vegan candy bars, organic tomato and peppers to grow and a cute kitty card! I just had to share this lovely stuff! If you have suggestions for simple projects for the yarn I can do please let me know!

Happy Earth Day and have a super awesome weekend!

[day 10] Time To Start Hoarding!


Last week I was told Candy Cane Joe Joe's would be arriving any day now. So when I went to check in and found out that a lady bought a whole box I was bummed. It took a few days to get another shipment in and tonight I got to grab a few boxes. These cookies are seriously good. I love them with hot cocoa or strait out of the box. I do not want to talk about them any longer...I better go eat a few now!!!
