Back In The USVI

Arrived home late Sunday night and all my babies survived...

Monday morning, Scrat, Calvin and Molly were back on the beach...lousy phone pic...

for some reason, I was craving Mexican, so we did Greengos for lunch...

Tuesday's lunch was Black Bean Soup carried out from Frenchtown Deli...

yesterday, we did Jen's Island Deli...

today I carried out Cashew Tofu from Saki House, but forgot to take a picture, so here is what is looked like when I ate there on April 29th. I am still kind of out of it from the trip.

Lots more to come. Bye for now.

Home and Away

Since I only use the stove top or toaster oven to cook, nothing too imaginative has yet to be made at home...

Avocado Toast for the occasional beakfast....

dinners are usually Gardein faux meats (these are the Sizzlin Szechuan Beefless Strips) with Boiled Potatoes and Heinz-57...

every Saturday I get a bowl to go of the Vegan Chili from Natural Food Grocery and Deli to have as a lunch option at home during the week...

whenever Frenchtown Deli has a Vegan Soup for the week, I stock up from there as well. Their Lentil Soup looks drab here but is exceptional...

an excellent lunch out this week a Jen's Island Deli...

Jen's Veggie Burger is so huge, I take half home to enjoy for dinner (with the usual Potatoes)...

Meson Amalia had a Pesto Pasta special on Sunday and graciously made one special for me without cheese. Really great. More to come. Bye for now.

Souping

Soup has become a major part of my life since moving down here, I have no idea why this is. Below is the Vegetarian Red Bean Soup from Frenchtown Deli..Red Bean or Red Peas Soup is a tradtional and beloved Soup of Virgin Islanders, but often has meat added to it, so I was excited to find this veggie version...

most Soups I get from Natural Food Grocery and Deli because they always have two vegan Soups daily at $5/pint. Below are some of their recent achievements: Mung Bean Mushroom...

Lima Bean...

and Everything But The Kitchen Sink Vegetable.

On another positive note, one of the best Chocolate Bars the Mr. brought down with him in August was this Dark Chocolate Coconut from Whole Foods. If any mainlanders get the opportunity to try it, I highly recommend...

speaking of the Mr., it has been almost a year since a hat he ordered from Amazon was delivered. Since then, the empty box has been primo kitty real estate. Though only big enough for one cat comfortably, sometimes two must be on it. Thank goodness he ordered the hat.

Lots more to come. Bye for now.
