Spud Haul

Well, I have what is probably pictures from the world's most boring grocery haul! When you are only buying potatoes, vegetables, and cat food it saves so much time! So many aisles with no reason for me to walk down.

Gluten is a no no for me right now, so I'm thinking of trying to make a batter out of the potato flour to make my favorite General Tso's cauliflower. I'm also going to attempt to make gnocchi with the potato flour. I eat red sauce like once a year. Maybe a little bit more, but not that often. Now that I'm eating mainly potatoes, I have a mad craving for marinara sauce! Gnocchi seems like something i should be able to make. Years ago, when I was vegetarian, I attempted to make gnocchi and it was the biggest fail of all times. Like one for the books. It always seems so easy to make, and I just scared myself from trying again. I've definitely improved in the kitchen since then, so I think I might pull it off this time. I feel like my cooking skills have improved a million times over since I became vegan.
I watched a ton of potato cleanse videos on YouTube yesterday, and it seems that sun dried tomatoes are a popular ingredient to make a potato nacho cheese sauce.  It's similar to BuzzFeed Video's vegan mac and cheese sauce, but minus the cashews and plus a few nacho type flavors. I hope sun dried tomato pate works! Sauces seem to be what's making this super easy for me. Sauces and seasonings. So, I see potato nacho cheese in my very near future.
This potato cleanse has really become kind of a "thing". Usually when anything becomes a "thing" I lose interest, but for this I'm resisting the urge to run. I find it sweet and inspiring, and I think it's helping a lot of people on a deeper level than just losing weight. I kind of like feeling like I'm part of something, especially something positive.
I've been looking into starter cameras, and I found some that are in my budget, especially if I buy used or refurbished. I'm going to do a bunch of research today, and hopefully make a purchase tomorrow, or Wednesday. This is going to be a whole new world for me. I had a camera when I was a kid, and obviously it wasn't a digital camera, so yeah. I'm excited to be able to take better pictures, especially when I'm out and about. This might sound weird, but I feel less awkward taking pictures in public with a camera than my phone. Plus, my phone drives me insane, and we have a combustible relationship at best. So, all around good news for the start of the week.
How is your week looking?
