No Tofurkeys were harmed
for my Thanksgiving dinner.
I must have a mental block against taking pictures of my food, because it seems like I always forget these days. Above is a picture of the last slice of our Thanksgiving entree, a tofu-leek-mushroom pie with a whole wheat/cashew crust. Yum! It was tasty and very filling. The recipe is from The Voluptuous Vegan if you want to try it.
I neglected to take a picture of the other pie, a dessert cranberry/blueberry pie, and the leftovers are at my parents' house.
We also brought garlic dip, I mean, sundried tomato/white bean dip that contains a load of raw garlic, as well as a bottle of wine that I've been saving for a special occasion.
I'm glad we avoided getting a Tofurkey because they're pretty nasty from what I hear. Has anyone else tried them?
Today HS and I observed Buy Nothing Day. We were going to do it last year but couldn't pass up a going-out-of-business sale at a music store. Since we didn't do much today, it wasn't hard to Buy Nothing. However, I thought about going to the corner to buy the paper this morning, then realized I couldn't.
Here are some Buy Nothing Day-related links. I really want to see the movie What Would Jesus Buy. The trailer is here. It's Shopocalypse Now!

Ooh, I have Voluptuous Vegan-- I love that cookbook, but I've never made that delicious-looking tofu-leek-mushroom pie!
Try the Celebration Roast from Field Roast...or any Field Roast product for that matter. They are awesome!
