Day 6 happened to fall on Mother's Day, and we were planning to head to my parents' house for a nice cookout. I had offered to make a salad, and I figured I would make some other yummy surprise, so I didn't tell them that I was becoming a vegan. My mom partially figured it out, based on my plant-based Instagrams of late. I don't think she realized how much animal product I'm trying to eliminate, but she seems actually quite interested in it... I think she and my dad will at least be doing a day or two a week of meatless dishes.
Anyways, I ended up with more than enough to eat. Salad, broccoli, grilled bread, strawberries, and french fries. Yum!
I had made some vanilla vegan cupcakes and decorated them with coconut or raspberries. They were really pretty, and also really delicious! Everyone liked them, and took an extra for later :) I didn't take a picture, though. Wah!
The real treat was that Charlie and Vanessa brought a box of Union Square Donuts... Yum, but so NOT vegan... Or so I thought! It turns out that they make a couple of vegan donuts each day, and one vegan flavor is the Pink Lemonade donut, which happens to be my favorite one anyway! So I ate a pink lemonade donut, and took the other one for breakfast some day this week.
