I say "we" not in that annoying way where people always refer to their children's activities as we, for example:
"We are learning to walk" Ummm...no, your baby is learning to walk, you are along for the ride.
"We are feeling shy this morning" Really? You don't seem so shy explaining your child's anti-social behavior.
"We haven't pooped today" Wow, don't need to know even if it is only in reference to your son.
I say "we" find out if Bellerina has a dairy allergy because I have been breastfeeding her and for the last 6 months I have had to go cold turkey on cow's milk. This from the girl who ate yogurt every morning for breakfast, and had at least 2 glasses of milk a day. It has been torturous. Thank goodness for Trader Joe's. Yay for goat's milk gouda, cheddar and various forms of soy substitutes!
In my determination to still provide Bellerina with the required piece of cake to tear in to on her birthday I made a dozen vegan vanilla cupcakes with a "butter"cream and pineapple frosting for tomorrow's shindig. Why only a dozen? Because I'm not dooming everyone else to this fate, I made a rocking chocolate cake, butter, milk and all for the crowd.
I tested a cupcake and I have to say, they're pretty darned good! Not just "good for a vegan cupcake", but really genuinely good, like the vegan Chocolate and Cherry Soy Ice Cream from TJs (If you haven't tried, I must insist you put it on your next shopping list) Many thanks to my girl Lah-rel who helped me navigate my first go at the world of vegan baking!
