Vegan MoFo Day 11: Last Splash


I'm not sure if today was really our last visit to a splash pad this summer, since the one by Zilker Park stays open year-round. But I'm a Breeders fan, so I'll stick with that post title nonetheless.


I'm so glad that the sun is finally, little by little, giving us a break so that we can play outside again. The high today was only 100. Compared to 106 last week, I'll take it.


Afterwards, we cooled down in a different manner of speaking. We stopped at Sweet Ritual for vegan ice cream. Jackson and Olivia both chose cookies n' cream "monkey cones." Can you see the little monkey face? Cute.


I had a double cone with a scoop of horchata topped by a scoop of nutter butter.  As a peanut butter fanatic, I wanted the nutter butter to have a stronger peanut flavor, but the horchata flavor was perfectly cinnamony, with little pieces of almonds mixed in.


For dinner, I made po'boys. Tony fried up the last of the okra from our garden, and I stuffed it into hoagie rolls along with lettuce, tomato, pickles, Veganaise, and hot sauce.


With that, Vegan MoFo is half over! Hope y'all have a great weekend!

  1. Peanut buttery or not, nutter butter ice cream is a dream come true!
