“I could be wrong, but I think heterosexual marriage is threatened more by heterosexuals. I don’t know why gay marriage challenges my marriage in any way.”

Got Vine?
Awhile ago Mensa and I were watching Parks and Recreation. In this particular episode Ron Swanson is obsessed with getting off the grid. There is this one scene where he accidentally opens Vine on Tom’s tablet taping his 6.5 seconds moment of, “Erase all pictures of Ron” selfie. It’s hilarious.
Yesterday during a rather slow lunch I decided to do my first Vine selfie. Check it out HERE. Boom! LOL.
I can see what kind of fun is going to be had by Mushpa y Mensa with this new app. Follow us on Twitter if you want to make sure you don’t miss any going forward. ;]
You’re welcome!!!

New Orleans Living
What Mushpa y Mensa went for a week of fantastical fun, a side of debauchery and a dash of magic to the “The Big Easy”? Why, yes we did. I am not sure if you all know but this month of October is Mensa’s Birthday Month!!! :] Congratulations Mensa! For the week of her actual Birthday we spent it running around New Orleans having an amazing time. We forget that there is a world outside of New York City where people are nice and say things just to be nice.
Thanks New Orleans for making the celebration, well, New Orleans style. Go big or go home! Check out some of our fantastical action shots HERE.
Happy Birthday Mensa!!!

The Healthiest Dessert: Tofu Chocolate Pudding!
The yummiest, and healthiest dessert you will ever eat….
And you can make it in less than 5 minutes.
-1 package of Silken Tofu
-1 tablespoon of sweetener (We like Stevia/Truvia. Adjust if you want more or less. I started sprinkling and kept adding until I reached about 1tbsp.)
-2 tablespoons of powdered cocoa (adjust as well…I started sprinkling and mixing until chocolatey goodness was reached)
-1 teaspoon of vanilla essence
Mix all ingredients in a food processor or blender….and boom! That’s it.
It was so good, that I realized that I should probably take a picture after I had finished it all!

Sometimes we drool over the furniture on the street. Ok, correction. I drool over the furniture on the street and Mushpa tries to convince me not to bring trash into our home, and be a bit more…what shall we say, selective?
When we have more space, we will be bringing in all sorts of furniture to re-vamp and re-furbish, and potentially sell in our shop as well! This goes back to our idea of making things “from scratch”. On our 100th Blog Post we tried to explain our approach to doing things from now on. If we have the tools to be able to make it, then why not try to do it ourselves? Here is a perfect example.
This is one of the pieces we found a block down from our home. We decided that if it was still there when we came back from our walk, that we would take it in.
We needed storage, and we got some for free! With a few left-over spray paint cans, we painted it and now it looks fantabulous on our studio!
Thank you Mushpa for this one!

The 100th Post of La Mushpa y La Mensa
Mensa and I are always talking about consuming less, needing less, getting rid of excess. Things that anchor us to one place be it literally, monetarily or mentally.
We do little things like take our worn out old clothes, wash them and then cut them into a million little pieces to stuff our Plush Pets…
…or make some deeelicious seitan from scratch, while whipping up some organic, coconut oil based mayo… I personally am extremely gifted in mixing alcohol with almost any “leftover” liquids (frozen or flowing) and it tasting like nothing you’ve ever had before (in a very good way).
Some bigger things are Mensa creating an amazing backpack out of an old bag, after her million year old bag disintegrated right before our very eyes. The very backpack we packed with soy milk (something we have talked about learning how to make since we consume so much of it…stay tuned) and such this weekend after working in the co-op (don’t ask). We biked over 8 miles and this revitalized beauty made it through like a champion!
We also made our fantastical Mushpa y Mensa cloth sign out of old pillow cases and fabric pieces. See below…
We are making it happen more and more every day, but we need a challenge….something to keep our momentum soaring towards our destiny. What we came up with is…well let’s start slow, why don’t you get to know us first…see what we mean when we say “from scratch”.
We are here for a reason, all of us. Let’s make some stuff together, see what we think, then figure something out. Let’s connect as they say, in a good way.
This is our 100th blog post and the start of something gargantuous! :] Life, as La Mensa would say is, “pretty bad-ass.”
