I am Mooch and I’z a shy cat. I am not sure why my people are using my name to represent giving things away but as long as I can hide under the bed for a while, I guess it will be ok.
Today the local groundhog from our Pennsyltucky region said there is going to be 6 more weeks of winter. That makes me a little mad because I want the grass to start growing again right now! To brighten up this long winter, let me tempt you to enter to receive some vegan goodiez. This month, Millie & Frank want to focus on gift foods that represent warmth and love. Millie took photos of me with all of the goodiez (until the man came to fix the shower, then I hid under the bed).
Frank & Millie recently tried Queso for the first time and they really loved it. It is like a spicy nacho cheezey sauce that is VEGAN! Frank about did a flip when he tasted it, he thought it was so good and he liked that it had some heat to it. Millie thought it was the perfect start to February’s The Big Mooch since it is by a vegan company called Food for Lovers.
Next is something sweet but no vegan worries about bone char in sugar, this is a bottle of pure delight. It is an 11.75 ounce bottle of Florida Crystals’ organic Agave Nectar. Milliez said for me to mention that it’s the amber kind. You can use it in so many ways. Not everyone likes the maplez kind of syrup and honey is from bees so this is a wonderful sweety to add to the giveaway this month. It is in so many of the recipes on this blog; T’s Vegan Cheesecake, Vegan Custard Pie, Dipping Sauce for Vegan Wontons and Endive Hors d’oeuvres all call for amber agave nectar. Sweet!
Time for adding another goodiez. Millie is a little afraid of what he will say when Frank realizes that she is giving away one of their (unopened) jars of his favorite peanut butter. You may have seen jars of Peanut Butter & Co.’s different flavors in your local market (they even have some at WalMart) but most places don’t carry The Heat is On. Frank is certain that was the ingredient that made Millie’s Award Winning Pennsyltucky Chili noteworthy at the Vegtoberfest chili cook-off last year.
Don’t mind me, the handyman came and the last photo still gets my approval, especially because there are cat faces on it. It’s two 3 ounce, vegan certified, All Natural Endangered Species Chocolate Bars. Both have photos of wild cats on the labels; the black panther is Extremely Dark Chocolate and the tiger is on the Dark Chocolate with Espresso Beans. I couldn’t think of better for The Big Mooch giveaway in February.

I know it’s Wordless Wednesday but I have some catching up to do and want to share these pretty little treats in case you want to make your own instead of spending more than you have to or settling for inferior non-vegan ingredients.
Remove chilled eggs from freezer and individually dip them into the melted chocolate using a fork, skewer or toothpick. Place each back onto waxed papered baking sheet and return them to the freezer for another 1/2 hour. Remove from waxed paper and wrap individually. Keep cool until serving.
