* 2019-01-15 [https://minimalistbaker.com/coconut-red-curry-with-chickpeas/ Coconut Red Curry with Chickpeas] 4x and [http://www.onegreenplanet.org/vegan-recipe/nourishing-ayurvedic-kitchari/ Nourishing Ayurvedic Kitchari] 3x.  The curry was good, very atomic thanks to an entire large container of red paste.  The ayervedic rice, bland as it was supposed to be!  Oranges were deeply on sale, so we made [https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/234302/cucumber-orange-carrot-juice/ cucumber orange carrot juice], which was odd, but really cooling and so great with the curry. 
* 2019-01-09 [https://yupitsvegan.com/general-tsos-chickpeas/ general tso's chickpeas] a favorite repeat, 4x, which was only about 2/3 of the pot, but it was great as usual and perfect for a quieter night.  Also, [http://www.onegreenplanet.org/vegan-recipe/yaki-onigiri-with-sweet-potato-and-avocado-filling/ yaki onigiri] rice balls, 3x.  There were but plain themselves, but with the Teriyaki sauce, delicious!  Super labor intensive though, must be several minutes of work EACH, so it really doesn't scale.  The sauce, of course we couldn't get mirin, so we subbed in dry sherry + brown sugar, but didn't have enough sherry either, so subbed red wine vinegar for about 1/2; people tell me the vinegar really gave the teriyaki a sweet & sour flavor which was awesome, so I'd say unintentional genius :-)
