Food truck crawl

After an insane-rain morning, it's finally almost sunny outside.

This morning we loaded up on groceries at Joe's and got ingredients for two dinners: soup and pasta salad. We should have enough leftovers from each to last us most of the week. On the days we don't have a dinner planned, we usually end up eating my husband's favorite go-to meal: "stuff in a tortilla". It's exactly what it sounds like.

We had some time to kill when we got back from Joe's, so I made three breakfast cookies for the next three days of work and a batch of vegan almond butter cookies, per the fitnessista's recipe.

At noon we walked down the street to the food truck fest - some sort of event our apartment building had going. It was drizzly and cold out, but I've braved far worse weather for the sake of food trucks.

First stop was the crepe truck. We got the ham, egg and cheese crepe:

Despite being a 1 on the ham scale, it wasn't very good. (a 0 on the ham scale = no ham, a 1 on the ham scale = ham, FYI)

Next we tried some fish tacos:

These were VERY good. The mahi mahi had a spicy rub and the cabbage slaw was tangy and crunchy. I ate all of one and most of the other. 

My hubby got an empanada, which I had just a tiny taste of, since it was also a 1 on the ham scale (I don't like to eat much meat):

It was excellent. 

And we had to try a cupcake, even though we were sure it wouldn't be as good as GT cupcakes:

It was a pretty good cupcake. We both agreed it was like a cousin of GT cupcakes. Not as good, not a sibling, but similar enough to be a cousin. 

I'm about to do some yogaglo, then put the Walt Disney station on Pandora and start dinner. Word to the wise: if you're not cleaning, cooking, baking and doing homework to Colors of the Wind and A Whole New World - try it. It's magical. 

Have an awesome Saturday night!
