Mickey Mouse Salad: VeganMoFo Post # 8

I'm a Veganwannabe: Post # 8

I couldn’t resist posting this silly picture. Look at that cute potato! Here's the recipe (minus the egg, of course - I promised I wouldn't mention an egg this month.) 

 My vegan journey has been going really well so far. I feel great!  Somehow, I feel lighter, although I don’t think I have lost any weight. That’s probably because I eat so darn much….and our food lately has been great. Tim is enjoying the new diet as well. What a blessing to have a husband who will eat whatever I place in front of him! One day I will have to tell you the hilarious story of a girlfriend I had when I was first married. Her husband would ONLY eat meat and potatoes….literally…. she would fry him a steak for breakfast and the like….can you imagine the monotony!

Anyway, I bought these delicious new potatoes used in this yummy salad from a tiny roadside stand last month. Tim and I were following our son on his bike – see him over there on the other side of the road? Robert had signed up for a 20 mile bike rally only to find out that he was the only one participating in his age group – a ‘Rally of One’….and super discouraging! To help encourage him, Tim and I ended up trailing him all over the county. Turned out to be one of those great family events….plus, I found this great farmers stand.

It's all about family, right?
