1. Tonight's dessert: yellow cupcakes with chocolate frosting. I haven't had time to cook much this week, so I came home from class today and cooked dinner and dessert. It was fun!

2. Tonight's dinner: Dal over basmati rice. 

3. And some lagniappe: a superbowl snack I made but didn't post earlier in the week. This is a nutritional yeast- based Ro-Tel dip with ground soy crumbles. I put it on top of some chips, added some pickled jalepenos, and presto! superbowl nachos. [recipe: 1/4 cup nutritional yeast, 1/4 cup flour, a cup or so of water, a bit of paprika: simmer this stuff to thicken, then add canned tomatoes and chilis and soy crumbles, heat through]
