Making Lemons out of Lemonade

As I write this I am sitting in wait of Irene...and I just unpacked my bags from a gorgeous, picture perfect week in Cape Cod!
Since I anticipate having some time on my hands during the next 48 hours, though potentially without electricity, I figure I'll have plenty of time to dream up some new recipes (even if making them needs to wait until my refrigeration and heating capabilities return.)
If you had your choice, what ingredients would you like me to tackle for new vegan recipes?
If you're on the East Coast, be safe, smart and dry.  If not, be grateful and do something wonderful today!
