I wanted to make the vcon chickpea cutlets, but despite mom's wealth of pantry goodies, there were no chickpeas to be had. So I subbed some kidney beans. The wheat gluten might have been a billion years old and the breadcrumbs a little stale, but in the end I got something resembling a cutlet. I thought I'd give the vcon mustard sauce a try and I'm so glad I did. Mom didn't have any sherry, so we found some dry vermouth (probably older than me) which worked just fine.
Mom stocked up on vegan goodies for me. There's some vegenaise, follow your heart cheddar cheese, earth balance and soy milk! Surprisingly, all came from the local supermarket not known for exotic ingredients. I'm impressed. 
Merry Christmas Eve and have a wonderful holiday!

Wow, I've never heard of the Amazon Kindle, but it must come in handy!
Love that you were able to whip out the Kindle to save the day - those things are wonderful :-)
And your mother is a sweetie, stocking up on the vegan goodies for you. Hope you have a great time with her!
Ha! You were really winging it there! Your mom is so cool, she bought you all the right goodies!
Oooh! Jealous of the Kindle! They don't sell them in/ship them to the U.K ~ Mean Amazon!
Also jealous of the seitan..............and the vegan goodies too.
