Vegan Cupcakes!

Monday, I went to my second session with my Naturopath and got my results I had done my first time there. These results were for an IgG test which is a delayed allergy test.  My results were pretty shocking to myself as most of the foods I eat a lot, I now have to give up. So, I have been doing alright with making my own food and have decided eating out is next to impossible now. I am a vegetarian and am allergic to sunflower seeds and nuts. I can now add eggs, sugar (cane), yeast and dairy to the list of allergies. Pretty discouraging!


Today is day 5 of this new diet.  I decided to try out the cupcake recipe from my new favourite book "The Kind Diet" by Alicia Silverstone, a fellow vegan.


I tried the cornbread recipe from this book on Tuesday, and the results were pretty good! (Although I would personally add less maple syrup as I found these a bit too sweet!)

cupcakes I made myself :)

The cupcakes are very easy to make, though the ingredients are a bit hard to find than if making regular cupcakes. They look nice, and I think they taste amazing! I will admit I was a bit weary of eating them; they do not smell as good as I would like, but the texture and taste are better than some cupcakes I have had in the past!!

So far, this new restricted diet is not bad at all!

How I miss South America

So I recently came back to Montreal, (I arrived on Sunday), after traveling in South America for two weeks.  Although the high temperatures, or rather breaking record temperatures in Buenos Aires were unbearable, at least I didn't have to wear layers of clothing! I guess that is part of being Canadian though!

I will be going through my images, and have a few film to be developed.  Will post some, not all, of the images slowly!

Until then...

Reading Glasses, so hot right now!

I have decided to pay a lil tribute to the look of reading glasses, or rather, the dark rimmed, slighty oversized at times, look that is so popular and trendy at the moment (and perhaps longer than that!!)
