Happy Holidays

Thanksgiving and Christmas are easily my favorite holidays. As Thanksgiving approaches I get antsy to start cooking and baking. This year was the smallest family gathering I had to cook/bake for, just me and my parents. I can count on the fact that we all love dessert, however, I had forgotten that my dad will not eat stuffing and I made way too much. More leftovers for me :)

My stuffing is super easy; celery, onions, carrots, bread cubes, vegetable broth, black pepper as well as parsely and some seasonings.

I made tofurkey as usual. My mom was in charge of mashed potatoes, rolls, yams and vegetables. I also brought zucchini bread and pumpkin pie. All set! After working in the morning I headed to their house. We ate almost as soon as I got there as we were all pretty darn hungry. Everything was fantastic. Now, I have NEVER eaten pumpkin pie, vegan or not, so this was my first year making and eating it.....I LOVED it!!! I'm making another very soon :)

I also baked a lot for other people. Of these things included chocolate banana bread, zucchini bread, chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter swirl brownies and a pumpkin roll!! I had never even heard of a pumpkin roll but wow, very delicious. I will make another soon and post pictures and a recipe.
