And Now, Back To Food

First off, Simon wanted me to tell you about the delicious cookies that I bought for him at the Veggie Food Fair. These come from a company called Arthur's Appetizers which is located in Milton, Ont. Milton isn't too far from us and Jim is working there all the time so getting more won't be a problem. The lady also said they are at the Burlington Farmer's Market.

I got some mixed bags for Simon. Included was blueberry peach bones, cinnamon carrot dog houses, veggie delight fire hydrants, carrot & apple oat cats, oatmeal peach dogs and pumpkin biscottis. These are made with organic fruits and vegetables, contain no artificial ingredients or preservatives and are Simon approved!

At the food fair, I also picked up this delicious date & ginger chutney. I used it as a sauce on tofu and it turned out really well.

I also bought some samosas from the same lady. Along with that I made basmati rice and adapted the curried chickpea recipe from Cooking With Peta. Yum! Yum! Yum!

The meal was paired with a lovely rose from Malivoire, which is a fantastic winery that practices responsible viticulture. Roses tend to go well with Indian food and this one was particularly nice.

To finish off this delicious feast, we had...surprise! Cookies!

These are Coconut-Pineapple-Carrot Macaroons from The Everyday Vegan. If you like the coconuty goodness of macaroons, then you'll love these tropical cookies. Soooo delicious. They are nice and chewy and not too sweet. A perfect end to a great meal.
