Best Laid Plans

This past weekend my dad and I had great plans. On Friday we were going to go on a 12 mile kayaking trip. We were all ready to go but come Friday morning there were thunderstorms both in Louisville and are intended destination. Although the weather was a bummer it worked out for the best because my cold that had been lingering on for over a week was the worst on that day. So instead of spending time outdoors, I spent a majority of the day on the couch, watching an NCIS marathon, and having the Kleenex and cough drops close by.

One good thing though is I did not lose my appetite. While my parents were out they thoughtful brought me back one of my favorites:



Shiraz is a local restaurant but with multiple locations in Louisville. It is delicious and very reasonable as well. Although I have been there probably 7 or so times I always get the same thing...the falafel wrap made vegan. This basically means that instead of yogurt sauce they add hummus. Let me also tell you that they do not skimp on the falafels which is important in my opinion.

Another fun food find of the weekend was complements of Morels Food Truck. It was their new tofu musubi. I tried to figure out what exactly musubi meant, how to prepare it etc and found out (via google searches) that apparently it is also common for people to make spam musubi (yuck!). This tofu version was however delicious. I can't quite describe it except to say it reminded me of a tofu sushi roll.



Side view: the tofu was in the middle, surrounded by rice, wrapped in seaweed

Despite being under the weather it was a great food weekend!
