Did you only have fruit until 4pm? Seriously, I'm worried about your eating. I don't mean to imply anything, but your food posts remind me very much of my anorexic days

Yep, thats what I ate today, but normally I eat much more.
I don't want people to worry. Appliepie, I was just a little upset today.
It was really good though!

I shouldn't have posted any of that. *sigh*
I'm fine, really! I take meds for everything and the drinking has cut back a lot.

So I take it exams are over then. How did they go?

Yep, exams are over!! I'm so relieved. They went pretty well, and I've managed to maintain my GPA. Thanks for asking!

[/QUOTE]Have you tried the fruit sampler from Celestial Seasonings? The one with 4 or 5 types of fruit tea in the same box?[/QUOTE]

I haven't tried that sampler but I did see it at the natural store. Right now I am mad at Celestial Seasonings (insert mad face here). I ranted about it in the Gripes thread. Long story short is I drank a box of their tea that had milk in it b/c it wasn't listed in the ingredients.

Sounds like a yummy day veganwitch!

That's gross about the tea with milk in it! Which one was it?



I haven't been hungry today. At about midday I had some scrambled tofu with veggie bacon and wildberry buckwheat waffles and maple syrup.

Also had a couple of cups of coffee with vanilla soy.

Right now I'm just having a glass of wine.

I'm not really hungry, but should eat something before bed I suppose.

[jamboxrock]

I'm going to have some cookies and tea before bed...maybe not the healthiest recommendation but it works for me

[Roxy]

I've sent them off an email asking which teas are suitable for vegans, and contain no animal products. I hope they write back. I like quite a number of their teas and now I'm worried I've unknowingly consumed something I wouldn't want to.

• Orange
• Edamame
• Sandwich with tomato, nutritional yeast, mustard, peppered seitan, lettuce and bell peppers on cracked wheat bread
• Butternut squash soup
• Garlic and onion tofu
• Baby carrots, cucumber and raw mushrooms dipped in mustard
• Spiced soymilk
• Rooibos tea x2

Good luck with that! Let me know what you find out. The woman I spoke to on the phone wasn't very helpful. I had to keep pushing her until finally she pulled info up on her computer and then went to ask someone else the questions. It seemed like I was inconveniencing her by expecting her to do her job.

[jamboxrock]

Nope, I didn't like it that much. I didn't read the box very well and was expecting Asian flavors like their stir-fries. The vinegar flavors were interesting, but all around it seemed a little off.

Roxy, can you post that somewhere for me too?! I have a few of their teas and buy them quite often.

LOL
What makes you think that? Lack of cooking? Too much coffee? Sick with nerves so that my stomach doesn't really want to take food? It's awful. At least it should be better soon. Had my Italian Oral today, and the French one tomorrow which I'm dreading. Two major written exams on Monday, and then it should get better as there's a gap until the last three
