I'm a vegetarian single mom of twins born on Leap Year 2004. Hopefully learning to cook here :) I strive to be vegan and hope to learn tasty vegan meals from this site. I currently enjoy baking, I got an amazing vegan chocolate cake from this site, but I'm looking to learn more meal-type recipes. Can't eat cake for every meal ;) I was never involved, but I always loved canning season at my grandparents home. They grew many fruits and veggies and my mom, aunt, grandma and great grandma would all can them together :) Just the other day I used a frozen package of "stir fry" that you add chicken to. I added tofu instead. The sauce packet that was included just wasn't cuttin' it, so I improvised with some other sauces and it came out great! :D Trying to make cupcakes with a cherry pie filling cherry in the middle. It kept sinking and the cupcakes fell apart badly. Epic fail.
