ahhh its not from milk.

October 11, 2007

ok. totally figured it out. well, not totally of course, but lots. nut butter is not from nut milk being butterifiyed! *gasp* its just totally blended nuts!! i kid you not. since they seem to have lots of oil in them, they become butterifiyed upon blending. how simple is that.

although the milking of nuts of possible from some style of nut crushing, all articles i came across pointed to a nut milking machine. which, aside from being a little weird, is a little more out of the way.

i might need to experiment with this whole idea.

**Update: WOAH!! read the milk recipe here at the bottom. imagine an eggnog type thing. this is going to be an exciting week.

**Update: attempt1

jon is awesome.

October 11, 2007

while going down the brooklyn hill this morning, me and george walked past Jon Toogood!!! it instantly made the morning more awesome. was just a casual look, didnt even say hi. he looked down as we past each other. quite exciting.

the other note, after getting to work had to email edmond so we could keep in touch when he goes back home. After checking this flickr i found he had all the photos he took from blueprint camp! it ended up being quite an amusing trail since as i found this photo of sam, it requited that i link him to it, for obvious reasons. Although i ended up reading his blog for a while. in which debs commented… and thus was directed to this awesome pic from camp which i totally forgot about.

i guess thats work time.

oh wait first. i must figure out how they get milk from almonds.. or any type of nuts really.

3 day vegan and tea.

October 7, 2007

awesome! this is officially day three!! i have learnt a good many things this vegan journey. the biggest would be all the foods that are non vegan. which, just on a side note, is like most of them. each of my first days there was one thing that disqualified myself form the full success title. thus, on sunday before the vege market shopping, my flatmates took me to the organic shop. (the one by chafers newworld) and i managed to get some pasta and bread, aswell as some egg replacer. oh oh, we did get some soymilk on saturday after frisbee. choclate, vanilla and a couple of normals. umm, its so good. so good. (thanks again baliwhat)

oh man, had an awesome tea party on sunday after blueprint. oh on that note. blueprint was awesome last night too. met Anthony Walton, and i think it was his brother, who was speaking. Was about Grace. had a little clip from Les Mis, and a totally spoiler if you hadnt seen the movie 😛 was a really good night. had about 15 people at our tea party. ill get a flickr feed going some time. soon as i get a cable or card reader for my camera. hrm. speaking of that i might go do that now. ok maby not. right now im going to re-full my tea. (dong suh brown rice green)

goals for the week:

  • finish my study on pauls letter to the Romans.
  • card reader

oh man, just remembered that Debs wants to have aqua jogging tonite instead of running. im going to have to find my togs lol. that will be fun. since we’re in a storm as well it might be a more practicle idea.
