Lunchtime

So I am a vegan. (not the butt of jokes vegan - live and let live people, just dont force your beliefs onto someone else) Though the thing I really don't enjoy is that people seem to think I eat a ton of salads. Umm no. I honestly am not a fan, I really have to be in the mood for one.  Granted salad encompasses many different things but for this, I am talking about the rabbit food kind.

So today this is my lunch. Lunch for me is my biggest meal. Small breakfast, BIG lunch and small dinner.  I have a hiatal hernia and if i want to sleep tummy needs to be mostly empty (learned the hard way - of course)

Pictured: tofu (its in the paper towel), zuccinni, jalepeno, mushrooms, peas, corn, butternut squash, cauliflower, broth, coconut milk and yes minute rice because I was hungry and getting testy and too lazy to use my instant pot to make rice (besides its forfided with iron and I am also anemic - which has nothing to do with being vegan - sadly my body just doesn't like to hold onto iron never has) Not pictured the tricolored potatoes, onion, shallot and thai red curry paste.

Yummy. I measured out portions on everything except for the coconut milk because well its my weakness when it comes to currys.

This is half people. Half. (I won't mention that it was so so good that I did go back and finish it) Usually I save the other half for tomorrows lunch  but technically even though I ate all of it I just ate a serving of everything (except the coconut milk) rough count on calories @900. (darn coconut milk)

Yeah so this vegan is not suffering or depriving herself at all trust me. biggest misconception out there. Well, one of them.

Stay safe people

and wear a freaking mask!

It doesn’t get any easier

Another child off to college. My 3rd. Stay wild baby girl.

Completely a sane number of pieces for a 14" pillow right? Love You Aunty

More masks

Because well they are actually going to try to open school here (yeah right) we do have the option to do 100% online and for our youngest we are. Our Ang wants to try the hybrid version and the other three are off to college soon. Though everything is changing so frequently who knows what will happen. Honestly I don't think this forced school opening is a good idea. My children are not experiments. It also amazes me how fast we went from teachers are underpaid and unsung hero's - we need to support them! To get back into the classroom now we are not going to help with ppe and we don't care if you get sick. It's so sad what this country has come to in more ways then one
Stay safe
