Morning sleep-in.

Broccoli monster!

Yummy fresh stuffs from the local farmer’s market.

Consumin’ brain food in the car!

One of these fuzzies is not like the other… (Mao!)

Happy faces! Fuji kitty & baby smiles-a-lot.

HAIRCUTS IS SERIOUS BUSINESS. That’s where we were off to. CHOP CHOP. Haven’t finished my hair update yet, though. Haircut was only stage 1! More later… unless I destroy my hair & have to hide away for a few months. ;P

David cooked a pesto pizza.

Chopstick vs Grassblade: FIGHT!… Well, if you want to be entertained in a mall food court, you have to be creative.

Fruity thief enjoys her spoils. (Ali managed to pick up some fruit while we were shopping without us noticing! We went back & paid 40 cents for this plum. Shopguy was very amused.)

Raw pizza base in the dehydrator for tonight’s dinner.

David wanted me to show you his “salty chocolate balls.” K THX. He made them this morning from raw cacao, hazelnuts, coconut, figs, & stuff… Moving on.

Today is the first day it hasn’t rained or been grey in a while (what are you doing, weather? !!). This is the green & blue view from our lounge room. Hi, Pacific Ocean! SHINY.

Merry Christmas! Lo, Saturnalia! Happy Yule/Litha/solstice/day off work! I hope you all enjoy a happy vegan feasting during this break.

And if you are not yet vegan, then now’s the time to go vegan as a gift to other animals, to your health, & to the environment! And if you don’t do gifts at giftmas at all, even non-consumerist gifts of non-violence*, then it makes for a good new year’s resolution as well!

Peace on earth & liberation for all beings.

“As long as there are slaughterhouses, there will be battlefields” – Leo Tolstoy

*the gift that keeps on giving! For every day of every year.
