…but what does she eat?

One Big Exception

Posted in Uncategorized by jrsimon56 on November 9, 2009

I know, I know, “Joanie, you’ve got a vegan food blog!  What are you doing canoodling with processed meat products?”  I can’t help it!  Ryan and I were on our way to Sunflower market after church and we saw it turn left off of Camelback Road!  The WEINER-MOBILE!!!!  We were on the Buddy and chased down the hot dog shaped vehicle.  We pulled into a parking lot off of Miller and Camelback where two friendly people dressed in red and yellow stepped out of the famous Weiner-mobile.  We pulled up and asked if we could get a picture.  They kindly obliged as well as gave us a tour of the vehicle.  Lined with blue skies on top and a mustard stripe on the floor.  We also got weiner whistles!  I know, it’s so not veggie, but it’s something that makes me smile :)   I mean, two people just out of college, driving around in a riduclous van shaped like a hot dog for a year, and they were so friendly.  I’m a sucker for Americana!

After our Sunflower excursion we came home and I slept from 2pm to 5pm.  Last night was a busy night at work, being on duty and all.  I got calls all night long for drunken, crazy, fighting students.  I blame the football game.  Anyway, after I woke up, Ryan and I jumped on the bikes and completed 21 miles.  Pushed ourselves a good bit and I keep feeling stronger each time.

For dinner, I made burros with black beans, FYH, fresh guac, homemade fire roasted salsa and a TVP/pepper mix.  Delish!

    hahahaha now what did I just at the previous comment? Fun goes wherever Joanie goes! And here you are buying weiner whistles!

    I love all things Americana too…esp those diners on the road tv shows by Guy. I love seeing what unimaginable things ppl are eating…like the cheeseburgers donuts. Yea you read right. Instead of buns…they used donuts!
