Lazy Mofo

Ok, fine. I'm a terrible food blogger. As much as I love cooking and eating and trying new things in the kitchen, I find blogging about it to be tedious. Not only that, but my pictures are terrible and I have little if nothing to say about my kitchen adventures.

But I have been busy. I've made banana walnut waffles. I even invited friends over for brunch and made two pounds of tempeh bacon, a double recipe of tofu scramble, a triple recipe of crepes with baked apples, and two dozen pumpkin muffins with fresh cranberries. I've tried, and failed, to veganize my grandmother's almond tarts another two times. I tried (devoured, really) the vegan meatloaf special at Melt. I assure you, there has been a lot of cooking and eating going on.

I just don't care to write about it.

I will say, however, that a couple of weeks ago I discussed the results of some blood work with my obstetrician. After telling me that I'd passed the test for gestational diabetes with flying colors and that I was, surprisingly, not anemic, she said the following:

"My vegetarian and vegan patients have better nutrition than my omni patients."

Boo. Ya.

In other news, I *did* get a beautiful new camera from my parents yesterday at my baby shower, so when I do start posting pictures of things again, they won't suck (as badly). I've also finally started to get the nursery ready, so it looks like my baby won't be sleeping in a drawer after all. I'm also beginning to have trouble fitting through doorways.

Tonight, I'm off to Toledo for a SSPU show. And tomorrow, joy of joys, is the Cavs home opener against Boston, which I will be attending. It is highly likely that I will hyperventilate every time I see Shaq block a shot. I expect, too, that I will get a bit misty when the players are first introduced. I will blame my hormones, which will of course be a lie.

Then, finally, on Friday I discover whether or not I passed the bar. I'm hoping for the best, mostly because while my son's friends will, at this point, have plenty of opportunity for "yo momma's so fat" jokes, I'd like to not open the door to "yo momma's so stupid" jokes.
