WHAT'S GOIN' ON?

Trying to live a practical, but compassionate life towards all living creatures (animal, mineral, vegetable, humanable) without being a self-righteous ass.

Veganing on vacation

I'm on vacation. The first week I was at my dad and stepmum's. Of course I stick to my veganism, and my folks (all 3) are very respectful of this, but I was back on the corn grid. ;-)

No big deal, I'm not fanatic about this. I decided to just enjoy the peanut butter (I think of it as icing-peanut-butter, as opposed to the peanuts only kind) by eating something I haven't had since childhood: a spoonful of peanut butter. I also ate a lot of Corn Flakes, which I hadn't bought in years.

This week I'm at my mum's, which presents other challenges. Her home is in a transitional phase, so there's only a mini fridge (no freezer) and a microwave. I went on a small shopping trip and bought just a few fruits and veggies, hummus, pita bread, rice, canned veggies, individual servings of soy milk, and natural peanut butter. We'll see what I can do with that. Tonight I made avocado sandwiches.
