Today was a great day at work. It is still a bit crazed but they brought us lunch from Tender Greens and they got me the Happy Vegan entree. As you can see from my previous
post I love the Happy Vegan. My co-worker kept saying I was smiling a ton while eating my lunch. What can I say I was
happy.
I love pluots. For those of you who haven't tried a pluot or think I'm making this fruit up let me assure you I'm not. A pluot is a cross between a plum and an apricot. There are so many varieties and my local farmers market has quite a few of them. Flavor King, Flavor Queen, Dapple Dandy, and Emerald Drop to name a few.

I'm made some pluot jam but haven't tried a pluot dessert until today. I decided to make the Purple Plum Pie with a crumble topping from
Color Me Vegan. I used pluots instead of plums. I was pretty happy with the outcome.

I think in the future I would use less sugar in the crumble portion of the pie. For my tastes the crumble portion was a little to sweet.
I enjoyed the pie though and will be making it again.

Hope you are having a wonderful beginning to your weekend. It's so nice to have a moment to write to my fellow MoFo'ers. Any big plans this weekend?
I've never heard of them but I love both plums and fresh apricots.
