The Sweetest Surprise


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!

    You’re not dumb, CCV! I added that “edit” in after your last comment, since I realized that others might have been confused, too. 🙂

    So sweet!

  9. mustardseed says:

    Yeah…sigh. We usually ettle for Oreos not Newman Os cause of the price. They’re both vegan, but obviously Newman Os are “safer”.

    YAY for sweet omni boyfriends! Mine was actively searching for a vegan restaurant for V-day, but the ones he checked didn’t take reservations, and the ones near us (Red Bamboo!!) were PACKED, so we went to an Italian place and all was well. That is AWESOME that he so sweetly Conquered The Tofu and made a fabulous pie for you! You’ll have him scarfing nutritional yeast cheezy sauce in no time 🙂
