I'm back and I've made cookies!

These are the chocolate chip cookies from
Vegan with a Vengance. These are one of my
fav. cookies. I think the only other ones that come close (that I've tried) are the revenge cookies from
La Dolce Vegan, these are also slightly healthier.
I substituted about one third of the flour with whole wheat. My boyfriend, Kevin, doesn't like it so I try to sneak it in whenever I can.

For dinner today I made
quinoa with
mexican seasoning, fresh tomatoes and avocado
drizzled with lime juice with
refried beans on the side. I love
Mexican flavors and this meal was super quick and so yummy. I used
quinoa instead of white
basmati rice because
quinoa makes me feel better, I love the flavor and it's a whole grain.
The
refried beans are from a can because I just can't seem to find a recipe I like. If anyone has one they'd like to share please let me know. I love
refried beans.
And because he's my baby, here's a picture of my cat. He loves the box. He's so cute.

Aw, what a cutie. I don't know what it is with cats and boxes, but its adorable. My cat is outgrowing his box...I'll have to upgrade.
I made the cookies from VwaV once but I think I substituted the margarine with shortening...it did not turn out! I didn't like them that much, but I'll have to try them again, exactly the way the recipe says! I like the revenge cookies too, but my favourite are the cookies in Vive le Vegan.
I really wanted to make the cookies in VlV, but maple syrup is super expensive here, and I haven't played enough with the recipe to have them turn out ok without the maple syrup.
