Colin and I went to BBG on Sunday, which was a horrible mistake because there was a festival and admission was doubled and everything was closed. Claire met up with us and ate lunch with us on the museum steps and then we headed into the park to have some picnic times with our friends Zak and Allie. We walked home along Eastern Parkway even though Bed-Stuy is nearly five miles away and it was getting chilly. I know that I’m obnoxious and mushy, but I literally can not handle how fucking cute Colin is.

From the top: I’ve been eating a ton of Chipotle -style burrito bowls and tacos. I’ve been cooking up the tofu with similar seasoning as they use for their chicken. It’s been really delicious and really vegan. I’ve been reading On the Road and writing a lot, growing spinach and cooking tofu. I made vegan mac and cheese with mushroom and bread crumbs. Colin made Boca burgers and got real fucking fancy with the toppings. Today, Colin’s friend Nate came over. I made homemade hummus and helped Colin make some super tasty (seriously, his best yet) vegan lasagna with homegrown sage in it. We also ate some really awesome vegan doughnuts that Nate brought. And then Nate spent about 10 minutes being insanely cute with Max.

This weekend was more or less the last I’ll have before weekends start getting insanely busy, as they do when the weather gets nicer, so I’ve been trying to enjoy it. I was really quite successful in doing almost nothing all day yesterday. It ruled and I really need to start doing nothing more often.

I’m part of a fun new photoblog project that my friend Shannon started called Your One Wild Life. These are the three photos I’ve submitted thus far, check out the project with photos from many others (based on a weekly poem/quote prompt) at http://youronewildlife.wordpress.com/
