DENVER

our first day in denver colorado before driving to frisco !

we arrived around eight pm to J's sisters apartment and the first thing i did was take a much needed shower. the highlight of the night was watching J play robot unicorn attack. remember that!? best.theme.song.ever.

the next morning we ate the food we brought from the road for breakfast;  vegan pizza, cucumbers, green peppers with hummus and flaxseed crackers.

we went to the grocery store to get some food for the week and after that we made sandwiches for lunch; mashed avocados with garlic on toast, with sliced tomatoes and my mom's garden sweet peppers. J had hummus on his sandwich and i also ate the sweetest peach after with a glass of coconut milk. it was a delicious lunch.

we were pleasantly surprised J's sister had an outdoor pool at the apartment so it was a perrrfectly hot day to go read by the pool and cool off in the water. also bonus: we were thee only ones there! 

here's some myspace pictures for ya'll  ; )

^^^ yuppp, pretty great morning

afterrr some pool fun we made k8ters a birthday cake before we headed out to stay with her the rest of the week in frisco. the recipe is from ambitious kitchen and was a chocolate lovers dream. you can find the recipe here ! i think the name sold me; "best ever vegan avocado chocolate birthday cake with vegan chocolate ganache".

it was a pretty simple recipe with weird things like avocado, and fresh brewed coffee. which you couldn't taste either of them once it was done so that was great! i hate coffee and even though i love avocados that would be gross with cake. but the avocado was just an egg substitute and overall i recommend the cake if you love chocolate! this was also my very first bundt cake. i like to call it a butt cake though.

^^^ then i carried said cake the whole 1.5+ hrs to frisco in my lap

we had a beautiful drive through the mountains the whole way -- can't complain about that :)

we arrived to frisco and it was much much colder than denver. but the view was incredible; mountains and green everywhere you look and the freshest air you ever breathed! i kept saying i wish i could capture it in a jar and take it home with me. i'm gonna thoroughly enjoy staying here this week. here is the lovely lady that let us stay in her beautiful home!
