This afternoon, I came home from a particularly strenuous Power Yoga class and was looking forward to simply relaxing on my couch for the next hour or so. But as I climbed the stairs to my apartment, I noticed someone waiting at my front door.
The surprise visitor was my boyfriend… and he wasn’t alone. Nestled in his arms lay a perfectly-formed chocolate mousse pie. It turns out that he had searched the internet to find a vegan recipe, and then my cooking-o-phobic boyfriend slaved away in the kitchen to make the pie for me!
Even before we started going out, I’d been trying to convince the boy that tofu is not evil, but he just would not taste it. On Valentine’s Day, however, he joined me in eating a big slice of the delicious pie, which– he proudly informed me– was made with tofu. And guess what… he loved it!
I think I’ll be keeping him for a while… he knows the way to my heart!
That is a great story, and it looks like a great pie! Props to him for trying!
Aww, how sweet! I agree – you should keep him.
Roses are red
and violets are blue
He put tofu in chocolate
Just for you
That’s the sweetest thing! You’ve definitely got a keeper. I agree- the marketing side of the holiday is a little sickening, but it’s still an awesome excuse for chocolate and candies!
Wow! My boyfriend needs to talk to your boyfriend! Paul is a total carnivore who doesn’t think twice about ordering a steak in front of me (although he’s promised me one day of vegan-ness for V-Day….he messed up on the actual day and ate chicken for lunch…but he swears he’ll try again…I’m waiting).
Anyway, congrats on having an awesome man! And a delicious pie (which I’m sure is gone by now). 🙂
