Mmm fruit

Boyfriend's parents just came back from BC.  With FRESH FRUIT!!!  MWHAHAHAHA!  I think my favourite part of summer is the fresh fruit.  Spent last night gorging myself on cherries, apricots and peaches.  Boyfriend and I also made cherry pie with delicious sour cherries from his garden. Oh how I love fruit!  I now have in my fridge though, two large bags of cherries.  Sweet cherries specifically.  I have spent the last hour looking up canning as well as vegan cherry pies.  This of course lead to a sidetrack where I spent a bunch of time looking up vegan food.  Mmmm vegan food.  I get very excited when I can make new vegan dishes.  Methinks tonight's dinner might be delicious lasagna.  Or I'll make it for lunch.  I'm not actually that picky.

One of my handy-dandy cookbooks lead me to a couple of awesome vegan websites; The Post Punk Kitchen, www.theppk.com and Vegan Yum Yum Blog (this one is more gourmet food), http://veganyumyum.com.

On a totally unrelated note, Boyfriend and I started the second season of Avatar, the last Airbender.  We now meet the crazy sister of Prince Zuko.  Also I had the creepy experience of lusting after Katara.  It always feels super weird to be attracted to a cartoon character.  Also she's fourteen in the show.  I swear I can hear the police sirens now.

Highly recommend the show.  It's got plot, humour, intrigue, mystery, in-depth characters, beautiful landscapes, cultural sensitivity, rich cultural elements and honesty.  It's even on Netflix which makes it super easy to access! Oh  Netflix, my other love.  I appreciate the reliability of Buffy in my home.

Also fear not internet.  There will be more weird bear comics coming soon.
