more food posts?

We had plans on Dave's birthday to go to the farm....then it continued to rain. Our back up plan was the Aquarium with Zac and his niece....then Dorie got sick.

So the morning of his birthday I snuck downstairs early and made him french toast and a smoothie. At one point he yelled down "it smells like eggs and bacon, what are you making?" I said just my oatmeal (which I make every morning). He said oh sounding bummed. When he came down I had everything ready. I forgot to take a pic but they looked just like the french toast from this post. He opened some presents then we both went to work.

After I got off work he picked me up and we went to dinner at Pulse. I talk about this place all the time and how we can't control ourselves when we go. I thought I was being reasonable getting the caesar salad and buffalo tofu bites but he ordered loaded fries (cashew cheese, tempeh bacon and sour cream) as an appetizer for us. After the fries I was already full. For dinner Dave got the country fried seitan and dessert (which I didn't get a pic of) was a dark chocolate mint silk pie. It was too minty for me but he liked it.

Apparently all I talk about it food. Sorry!

Yesterday was such a nice day off. We made blueberry pancakes and smoothies in the morning.

Then we went to the mall with a bunch of gift cards from Christmas. I couldn't find one thing in any of the stores I had cards to but then we went into Zara. They were having a sale and I found tons of things I had been wanting on super sale! yay! Including a coat.

Later that night we went out to eat at Pulse Cafe and then to a show. It was super packed and hot but we had fun. Since we took the train into Boston we had to leave a little before it was over. It was a good thing though because we were so tired and falling asleep on the train ride home.

Saturday there was a reunion for a band that had broken up. They were playing an afternoon show and night show so we had plans to eat before and in between at awesome places we don't get to go to a lot.

First stop was Deluxe Town Diner for vegan pancakes and soy sausages. They used to have a tofu scramble but not anymore which was probably a good thing seeing how full we were on just that.
We went to the first show and had a lot of fun. We got to see a lot of friends including meeting an internet friend.

Then there was a 2 hour break between shows but really for us it was 4 hours since we only wanted to see the last 2 bands. We took our time and walked a lot then finally got on the train to Pulse Cafe.  The whole way there we planned out what we were going to get and split things since we ate so much for breakfast. As soon as we sat down we ordered "Buffalo" Tofu Bite, Pot Roasted Seitan and Mac n Cheese. 

We did split everything but way more than we had planned for. After eating way too much again we took the train half way and walked the rest back. 

The second show was even better even though it was way more packed. We got home pretty quickly and passed out right away. I can't stay up later anymore!
