I've been slacking horribly on the picture-taking since I arrived in Nova Scotia, even though I've been "house manager" this week - meaning I'm responsible for all the cooking/budgeting for the 12 people living here.
Which might actually explain why I've been even too busy to take pictures.. and it's a lot harder to make everyone wait for dinner while I photograph it, than when I'm cooking only for myself.

So in no particular order, this is the stuff I *did* remember to take pictures of. I just noticed that it's all basically the same colour.. weird.

Peanut butter bagels (a la Celine):



Even though I'm technically not allowed to buy anything processed, exceptions are sometimes made at the beginning of the program. The local store has vegan rice cheese slices and I got some for myself to try, of the pepper jack variety.. they are so much better than tofutti. oh man. I made a tomato and cheese quesadilla..



Lentil Curry (yum) and rice.



Corn chowder. well, not technically a chowder. But it was really good..



And these cookies, which were good, but I am not so sure about the banana.. I might try using flax seed instead of that as an egg replacer. And chocolate chips were added.

Somehow I forgot about chana masala for a while. I love me some chana masala, and the fact that it's easy, quick, and I *always* have the ingredients for it on hand makes it a perfect last minute meal. It was tonight's solution for dinner, when I realized I only had so much time before I had to leave for my meeting.. steamed some swiss chard, tossed a bit of tahini sauce and sesame seeds on that, took a mediocre picture and ta-da.. dinner is served.




The Best Pumpkin Muffins from VWAV. Matt says they are aptly named. I threw some walnuts in for good measure..


Bagels, from here. These were okay, but small, and still not as good as harvest bakery's.


Tried to make some fruit leather for the first time today/yesterday. This is what it looked like, pre-dehydrated (hydrated?).. yeah.


I think I didn't add enough fruit, though it looked like a lot at the time. It came out pretty thin, though good. Dehydrated:
