This post has two purposes. I’m saving my creative, Halloween-y post for tomorrow (obviously), so today I am going to share some news that I’ve been withholding for a while. But first, cheeze.
Remember how much I enjoyed VeganYumYum’s Mac & Cheese last week? Well, I’ve been craving something creamy and warm and cheezy ever since, so today I cobbled together my own version of a cheeze sauce. It’s basically a big ol’ mess of EB, soy milk, nutritional yeast, a bit o’ flour, tahini, and various spices. Simple and totally awesome after taking a baking stint in the oven for 15ish minutes. It definitely hit the spot, and I’ve got leftovers for tomorrow, so I’m golden.
My bit o’ news is actually cheese-related, so here it goes – I got a job! I’m going to be a tech writer at a medical software company in Madison, Wisconsin! I’ll be moving out there in December and joining the land of the cheeseheads in America’s Dairyland. Kind of ironic, huh? I go vegan and then I go to Wisco. Heh. But I can’t really complain; it’s a full-time job with good benefits at a good company, and I’m going to need the moneyz once my student loans are no longer in their oh-so-wonderful grace period and I need to start repaying those suckers. So – any Madtown vegans in the house? Or, any recommendations for awesome places to eat in Madison? I’m excited because it’s a much bigger city than my hometown and my college town, so hopefully I’ll get to meet ~*~real live vegans~*~ and dine at ~*~real live vegan restaurants!~*~ Haha. Seriously though, if you’ve got any suggestions, let me know. :)
Ciao ’til the LAST DAY OF MOFO. Aahhh!
MAJOR CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats! If you are moving to the dairyland (I know how that feels, I was born and raised in Germany’s dairyland), teach them all how to make wonderful vegan mac and cheese. :)

Congrats on the job! Actually, Madison is a VERY vegan-friendly city! It’s a university town, so that gives it part of its energy, but the people there are just really laid back, friendly, open-minded, etc. Also, Madison has one of the BEST farmer’s markets I’ve ever been to. On Saturdays (not in winter, of course), it’s set up around the entire capital building…YUMM!
