Hey blog buds! It’s FRIDAY EVE! Wahooo!
So first I want to say thanks for the interest in sea vegetables! I loved reading your comments, about how you want to learn more about how to use them, so I’ll definitely let you in on any recipes I try (or create). You all wanted the agar agar “jell-o” recipe too! OK, twist my arm! 
I’ve updated the original Sea Veggies post so if you go back to that page and scroll to the bottom the instructions are there! I can’t wait to hear what you think after you give it a try!
It’s been a really great and hectic week, so I’m thankful that last week, MSP and I were able to take some time to just tool around in the car to see some of the fall colors before they all blow away. Here are a few of the pics from our drive.
The mountains got hit really hard with a lot of snow early this week (which was after the photo taken above), but so far “down here” at 6,000 feet of elevation we’re still having amazing autumn weather. While the mornings are getting cold (in the 20s), we’re going to see mid-70s tomorrow and Saturday! Thank you, Mother Nature, for granting my wish for a late start to winter weather this year. I can’t complain!
And on the way to school the other morning, I had this gorgeous sight!
Yes, I’m snapping photos at 70 mph through my car windshield. Shhh – don’t tell anyone!
Well I’m off to the kitchen to cook a school recipe that we sampled yesterday: Braised Tempeh in Coconut Curry Sauce. I’m going to pair it with Cauliflower “Couscous”. And later, we’ll be carving pumpkins because we are actually going to open our door to trick-or-treaters this year (gasp) instead of retreating to our basement like we usually do. I’m blaming this on Allison from One Day at a Time because her awesome jack-o-lanterns inspired me. You have to go take a look – they did a great job on theirs!
Do you have any fun and exciting plans for Halloween weekend?
Have a fabulous day, friends!
