Yikes! I’m excited and terrified. Scrumpdilly is taking part in this year’s – the third annual – Vegan MoFo, for which I must post 20 blog entries during the month of October, all about vegan food.

I’m excited! I’ve been craving a new project and this one came about at just the right moment, in between getting out of the 18-wheeler and doing laundry. So here we are. The Vegan Month of Food. Me and you. Scrumpdillies reconnecting. And veganity, in food form, our kiss on the lips. Exciting, right! Yeah, on one hand…

On the other…Mommy?! I’m absolutely terrified. Terrified I tell you. A few weeks ago, I started a list of blog entry possibilities and stuck it on my fridge. The ideas were varied: recipes, road food, kitchen staples, favorite appliances, restaurant reviews, aaaaand – HO-HUM, BORING! I threw away the list and at the last minute decided to go with a theme.

The Plan:
Oct 1- 2 = Regular Scrumpdilly-type posts that have been in my apron pocket waiting for just the right moment to be exposed (believe me, you want).

October 3 – 31 = Theme activation.

The Theme – Veganizing Martha’s Muffin:
I’ll be veganizing Martha Stewart recipes throughout the month. I might work on one recipe until it seems about right, that is, if I think it has potential for becoming perfectly scrumptious. Others, I’ll bust through and move on. No need to waste time on FAILS.

Week One = Appetizer
Week Two = Entree
Week Three = Side or Salad
Week Four = Dessert

Scrumpdilly Vegan MoFo Disclaimers:
*I’ll post a minimum 20 times during October in sticking with the Vegan MoFo agreement, however I have the right and authority to do whatever I have the right and authority to do.

*The #1 Scrumpdilly blog rule, I have to be behind it before I’ll write it, is destined to be broken. If it isn’t scrumptious, you’ll know it. Avoid the FAIL.

*Even after three years, I’m still a baby vegan who knows little of how to veganize without an Empress Vegan Guide. But, it’s all about food and fun and effin’ it. So who the hell cares what happens!

*Despite my theme’s name, I will not be making muffins. I don’t really like muffins. The name is a double-entendre. You can ask me about the back-story later. It’s not that interesting.

Vegan MoFo Background:
The Vegan Month of Food (Vegan MoFo) began in 2007 when Queen of Vegans Everywhere, Isa Chadra Moskowitz, was inspired by NaNoWriMo and decided to give it a vegan-inspired twist. She encouraged vegans (and non-vegans) to blog about vegan food during the month of October (NaNo occurs in November). This year’s Vegan MoFo is gonna be hefty with over 320 bloggers participating. You can follow along until your tummy’s content by tapping into the public RSS Feed.

See you in later tonight for the first food pic and post!
