LOL! I think it's great you posted the pretty picture accompanied by how they really turned out. Sorry it didn't work out. Ooooh, that teacher comment kind of PO'd me, too. Special?

I think they probably just lack experience with it and have been brainwashed by the powers that be. It sounds like your goodies went over pretty well, though, so good for you! <br /><br />Freecycle sounds pretty awesome. I had heard about it awhile back and forgotten about it, but I will definitely check out the website again.

That story has really stuck with me and annoyed me- I hate when people think that vegan food is somehow different and scary. Why aren't more people afraid of dairy and eggs? What did they think would be in your cupcakes? Seaweed and blackbeans and veggie burgers? AUGH!bazuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07020880461667324114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26130907.post-54495678419204357812007-01-24T19:30:00.000-08:002007-01-24T19:30:00.000-08:00Blood oranges--what great uses--esp on the cake.

We never have things that good on our Freecycle. I've given some stuff away (including an exercise machine that I probably should have kept) but never found anything I wanted on it. You painted the cabinet so beautifully. (And I have the same plate, on the top right.) :-)Susan Voisinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16706612777547235769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26130907.post-35555675420823178242007-01-24T06:54:00.000-08:002007-01-24T06:54:00.000-08:00I love the cool and fun things I create when I am ...I love the cool and fun things I create when I am trying a new food.

All I can say. <br /><br />Sorry your hush puppies sucked. I love hush puppies. I remember when I because vegetarian they were like the only thing that kept me going back to Long John Silvers. I also hate it when I make food that is just completely inedible.<br /><br />I love blood oranges. I had my first one in a market in Italy when I went during high school, because they were not yet common in the U.S. (o.k. it was only like 6 years ago!!) but my parents said "When you go to Italy, you *have* to eat blood oranges and gelato." I did, and will always associate the two things with Italy. Even though I don't eat gelato any more and the blood oranges I can get now are shipped from who knows how many thousands of miles to arrive in Montana. :)Ruthiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385890645302358783noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26130907.post-30153369493167330412007-01-21T12:36:00.000-08:002007-01-21T12:36:00.000-08:00i love that cabinet.
