The people at the Plaza art supply store knew Violet by name when I came in today. I bought a TON of acrylic Plaza paint, because I want these guys to stay in business. (And because I am So local.) Let's all say a simultaneous prayer, or perhaps a group chantra, that customs doesn't suspect my paint for anything other than paint. I'm guessing the first test of my Spanish this year will be convincing the airport workers that I am not a drug trafficker, which sort of happened last year with the tie dye chemicals. BUENO.

I think Violet secretly wants to come with me.

AS PROMISED: im stealing this vegan bread recipe from "randomgirl.com" thanks, girl. i hope randomgirl is her real name.

soy milk biscuits! cute!

2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
6 tbls soy margarine
3/4 cup soymilk

Preheat oven to 425. Grease a baking sheet

Sift flour, baking powder and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Add the margarine to the flour mixture until it looks like coarse crumbs. Stir in the soy milk and form the dough into a ball.

On a floured surface, roll out the dough about 2 inches thick. Cut into 2 inch rounds with a cookie cutter.

Place on sheet and bake for 15 minutes, until slightly brown.

  1. Aww! Violet is adorable. Good luck getting all your paints to Mexico. You're going to check them, right? I think they count as liquid - once I had applesauce confiscated.
