It’s a strange time of year. The weather is super hot this weekend in LA but the forecast shows a 30 degree drop by this Wednesday. And I don’t know about you but I am completely ready to say goodbye to Summer 2013. It was a great one. I beached. I camped. I went to the Hollywood Bowl. But now I am ready for baking & sweaters.
Perhaps my longing for change can explain why I chose to de-vegan thisrecipe from La Dolce Pita. Strange times indeed.
