vaderesque, so you'll eat a kiwi before you go to bed? Here we call New Zealanders 'kiwis'! :D

Um, kiwi fruit, I don't eat people of any nationality no matter how sweet they might be;)

Why are New Zealanders called Kiwis? Does it have anything to do with the fruit?

I always assumed it was from the Kiwi Bird, not the fruit :confused:

Yeah, you're right, Poison Ivy. The Kiwi bird is New Zealand's national bird, I believe. Kiwi fruits come from China, and are also called Chinese gooseberries.

its okay roxy, i dont find it offensive. not many people do like vancouver. (my boyfriend didnt either!) and its true, you have to see the beauty of canada, but its hard to find when u live in a city. plus, i trust u. i bet if i saw australia, id never come back!!! it looks GORGEOUS there. :) (have you ever been to the island roxy?)

I visited the island for a few days, the first year I was in Canada. We visited Victoria and stayed at some bungalows just outside of Victoria, in Malahat. I visited the Fort Rodd just outside of Victoria and ate at a beautiful restaurant on a cliff top overlooking the water. (I wasn't vegan then).

We also went to the Butchart Gardens which were amazing and Craigdarroch Castle, which I am SURE is haunted!

We also drove around the bottom of the island and around to Port Renfrew which is absolutely gorgeous!

Mmm, you got me craving olives in my salads. :) What do you dress your salads with?

Nov 15th, 2005, 03:27 AM
nothing, usually. the dressings they have in our cafeteria aren't vegan friendly. i'm not big on dressings anyway, for me, they take away the natural flavors of all my goodies in the salad itself. :p everything i put on them gives it enough juice and whatnot so it's not dry...
if i get a salad at subway, though, i'll get the sweet onion sauce- i could eat that stuff by the bottle, probably
