This is dedicated to the creamiest girl I know

The other day my friend Meg told me about a new drink she discovered and ordered at Elliot's Fair Grounds. She left the recipe on her card so when I went in last night for snb I finally got to try it out. The drink is a vegan raspberry egg cream (or 'Meg Cream') and tastes like a fizzy yoo-hoo drink. I went home and figured out how it was made and what modifications might work with it. Next time I am going to try it with coconut or almond syrup.

Vegan Egg Cream

2-3 tablespoons chocolate syrup
1/3 cup soymilk
seltzer water to fill the cup
flavoring syrup of your choice (optional)

Mix all ingredients together over ice and enjoy. For an alcoholic version try adding some Kahlua.

In other news, my new Todd Oldham book came today and it is fabulous. Now I am getting really excited about moving and redecorating. I also got You Grow Girl and I am looking forward to planting my little garden this weekend, especially with all of the terra cotta planters on sale this week at AC Moore.
