Bunnies and Tacos

Easter is past, but we are still hanging out with a bunny. It's Miffy, as interpreted by Tom Sachs in this fountain at Laguna Gloria.

Miffy cries tears into the fountain.

Laguna Gloria always has cool sculptures dotting the lovingly manicured grounds. The kids were eager to touch the rough surface of this Ursula von Rydingsvard installation.

"Did it catch on fire?" Jackson asked about this charred-looking Paul McCarthy piece.

A moment of calm by the water.

Tony and I love, love, love taking the  kids to look at art and discussing it with them. They always have an opinion.

We also love tacos! The Vegan Nom was the perfect place to stop for lunch after our art excursion. We started with some chips and queso.

The kids had crispy-shell "beef" Taco Bell-stylee tacos.

I had the Vegan Del Rey, their take on the fish taco. So good, with cilantro crema, avocado, and lots of salsa!

Tony had a couple of the crispy tacos along with a BBQ seitan brisket and jalapeno mac n cheeze taco. Amazing!

My handsome husband.

Egg Hunters

Today we went to an Easter egg hunt at the rec center. I wasn't sure how the kids would react to Mr. Easter Bunny, but after he handed them some candy, they were BFF's.

On your marks, get set, go!

Lightning fast!

Olivia actually filled her basket more quickly than Jackson. She explained that her flip-flops helped her run super fast.

After bagging up our loot and recycling the eggs, we headed to the Vegan Nom for lunch. The Vegan Nom is a vegan taco trailer that, for some inexplicable reason, we had yet to try.

We started off with chips and queso, $3.

Olivia had a breakfast taco with tofu scramble and tempeh bacon, served with 3 kinds of salsa. Only $2!

Jackson chose the Jalisco, with faux-chicken, onions, red peppers, and vegan cheese, $4. 

I had the Ranchera Luna, $4, with tofu scramble, spinach, sprouts, vegan cheese, and chipotle sauce. I could tell that the cheese was Daiya, and since I don't like Daiya, I will have to remember to order my tacos without cheese next time I go.

And I hope that next time is soon! I don't normally include prices with my restaurant posts, but I'm totally impressed that I can get a delicious, filling, healthy vegan lunch for about $6 at this trailer.
