Today is the last day of Vegan Mofo and I am so sad! I have really enjoyed participating for my first time, and I feel like I've made some new friends over the webz! Today's prompt is Fusion challange! This is probably the worst one for me, because while I am a very adventurous eater, and I love all different types of cuisine, spices,etc., I am not a fan of mixing cuisines. I even loathe the idea of pineapple on a pizza. I will gag if I taste pineapple with marinara sauce. Way back in the dark ages when Food Network was a new thing, I used to love watching
Molto Mario. When you watch him cook, it's so mesmerizing. It's like a dance, and he always gave great lessons about the regions of Italy, and why certain foods were popular in that region. He is a meaty chef, but I have seen him talk very highly of veganism, he has amazing vegan recipes, and he is actually starting to promote less meat. He is a big promoter of meatless Monday's, and I just really love him. Anyway, he shudders and cringes at the idea of fusion cuisine, and I have to say I am right there with him. So, I have no fusion cuisine to share on this last day of Mofo. I actually have no pictures because I just haven't really been hungry the last few days, so eating hasn't been a priority.
I do however have some cute kitty fusion pictures! I woke up this morning to find two of my sillies locked in the bathroom. They like to hide from each other behind the door, and sometimes the door closes all the way. I have no idea how long they were in there, but they were so happy to see me when I woke up! The other bad thing they did overnight was pull my futon base almost all the way off the frame. It now has a V shape that they can go under and have like a fort. I'm going to let them have their fort for a day.
I'm pretty sure Chunk was the instigator in this whole deal.

Getting ready to enter the fort! |

Animals know when we are sad, or hurt, or need a hug. These little guys and gals have been giving me all the love. Chunk in particular. He has all of a sudden become a huge cuddle muffin, where he wasn't so much before. It never ceases to amaze me how kind and sweet animals are, and yet we continue to be so terrible to them. I'm not a religious person, but I have to believe there will be some kind of price to pay for all the cruelty.

Good morning Animal! |

Yes, she is named Animal, just like the Muppets character. From the time she was a tiny kitten, she has always reminded me of that character!
Sorry to end Mofo in such a non-food way, but hey isn't veganism about the animals?
Well the kitty pics always make up for it LOL :) I especially LOVED the Kitty Fort teehee!
ReplyDeleteThey love the fort! I don't know if I will have the heart to put the couch back together!
DeleteThat's really made me laugh about the futon fort. Your cats have great personalities. I've really enjoyed reading your blog this month and am glad to have found it. I'll be sending you good luck vibes for the job searching x
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! They can be handfuls, but I wouldn't want it any other way! I'm super glad I discovered your blog too, and thanks for the luck, I certainly need it!
DeleteI agree with you on fusion food -- I'm a bit wary of it myself, haha! Loved the kitty pictures & that's hilarious about the fort they constructed! :D
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not alone on the fusion food! I couldn't think of any fusions that sounded good! I'm still lettin them have their fort, I don't have the heart to take it away yet!
ReplyDeleteAnimals bring so much joy. You did a great job MoFoing, so ending with kitty pics is perfectly acceptable.
ReplyDeleteLike I say, people drool and animals rule! If only life would have held out for an extra week, but at least I have cute kitties!
