Day 13. I did another big shopping trip today to stock up for the coming week. I was able to get most of what I needed at Kroger, with just a few things unavailable there (nutrional yeast, wheat germ, and safflower oil). Picked up the rest and some brown rice-avocado sushi for lunch at Whole Foods.
I did a whole bunch of cooking again tonight. I made the granola and chocolate-peanut butter cups from The Kind Life. They look awesome. I also made seitan cutlets (which I'm going to use in Seitan Piccata later this week) and French lentil soup, both from Veganomicon. They also look delicious. Chris teased me that, by making our granola, we are officially hippies. Whatever.
After all that cooking, I didn't really feel like making dinner. We ordered Chinese from our favorite delivery place: vegetable fried rice (which they make without eggs) and vegetables in spicy brown sauce.
Tomorrow, we are going to Alabama for Chris' grandmother's 90th birthday lunch. His aunt planned it, and, needless to say, the rest of the family are not vegetarians (or even Democrats for that matter). I am not hopeful about the veg-friendly prospects. I figure I will likely have to just suck it up and eat whatever is available. The last thing I want to do is make a production about food at his grandmother's birthday. I'm just hoping I can fill up on salad and maybe some side dishes without calling attention to the fact that I'm not eating whatever meat ends up on my plate.
