roasted veggie dinner

I wanted to do camping either this weekend or next weekend. I go camp-out every year since I've moved into Suffolk. I usually go to Norfolk coast. But I don't mind where I go for camping. I just love sleeping in a tent. So, Marcus took me to his mum's house( in suffolk) for a night in her garden to tent out. Bless.☺ We went round on 20th sat. It was a bit cloudy, and still carried on with funny weather. Sunny, cloudy then rain... but saturday wasn't too bad. When we got there, it was lovely and sunny. So, we had cuppa in Marylin( funky name!) 's garden. Then we went out for some food shopping..... then started to rain. Oh, surprise surprise. In this country, weather's very changenable, and English people looooove chatting about weather. They moan when it's cold and wet. Also they complain when sunny and hot too!  And now people have been talking about we never had summer. Summer just came a bit too early, that's all. Sea is very cold to swim in anyway even if it's sunny! and I told them " soon christmas!" I was told to shut up in a nice way. Lot of people I know don't really swear. (I swear lots♥).......... Anyway I've got a 2 man tent, It's big enough for me and Marcus( he's tall and big!), and it was fun sleeping in there. soooo cosy. I love hearing noise of zip opening and close, Snuggle into sleeping bag, having cuppa outside watching sky and chilling-out. All fun! Marylin(marcus's mum) cooked dinner on Saturday night. It was delicious. We had Roasted vegetables and tofu sausages. Oh, yummy♥♥♥
Then we had vegan ice creams with maple syrup  for after. They were devine. We had two different flavours. Ginger flavour and vanilla. We demolished it real quick.  And I feel if I eat them with some company, taste even better! I just try not to be a greedy bitch, that's all.☺
On sunday, Marylin baked vegan cake. It was a bit like date slice with attitude and more interenting and fun to eat. It was called " coconut, date & banana cake". I was told marylin usually baked into bars, and it was first time for her to make it like a cake. The cake looked like this:
Cor blimey, It was really moorish.She also made macademia nuts cream to go with the cake. We had massive pieces each and almost all the cake was gone!!! Marcus and I even took some home with us. Oh, we had rooibos earl grey tea with the cake. It went really well togather. And Marylin was very kind to give me some vegan cake recipes as well! Can't wait to get into my kitchen for baking! Thank you Marylin for lovely din dins!!!  She lives in suffolk country side near to the beach( called southwold), lovely walks and organic farm near by. we bought some organic vegetable from the farm, and looked very happy! they were very reasonable too. Everything was around £1.20 to £2.00, we spend about £8 all togather. 

Don't they look pretty and delicious???
