Monday Stuff

Well, I tried one of my clearance kombuchas yesterday and lets just say I wish I would have bought five more! When I lived in Erie I drank Reeds kombucha a lot. At most groceries it was either Reeds or GT's unless you were at the Whole Foods Co-Op. But once I moved back to Seattle there were tons of choices, and actually I didn't see Reeds that often. Same thing here in SLC, I think Natural Grocers is the only place that sells them. And I always just buy whatever is on sale.But I had never had or heard of this flavor. It's so delicious and refreshing! It's nice and ginger-y, and also nice and fruity from the mango, passion fruit and orange juice. This is my new favorite flavor, and I might have to see if Natural Grocers will carry this flavor.This would be really wonderful on a hot day. If you see this flavor, you should definitely try it. And Reeds doesn't have any weird floaties in it, which is another reason I love them!

For dinner I made the garlic curry fries from Isa Does It. I served them with a salad with Romaine and pepperoncini with Greek vinaigrette. I love that the potatoes are sliced lengthwise, kind of like a longboard chip. I dipped them in sriracha ketchup and it was a nice and spicy meal. Just when I think I've done all with the potato!

I found a SubWay on Saturday, and I didn't know how to get a napkin without buying something which kind of defeats the purpose of a boycott, so I just asked the girl if I could buy a few napkins. I was soaking wet from the rain so I guess it wasn't a weird request. I gave her a quarter for three or four napkins. Hopefully she just pocketed the quarter and didn't put it in the register. I sent this to the Humane League, and I will be posting it on my Twitter and Instagram as well. I've also already handed out some pamphlets. I find sometimes when I mention that I'm vegan, people ask questions or express interest so that's when I swoop in with information and a pamphlet. I'm learning that we're all different, and working with our own individual strengths and personalities is the most productive.

Here is where everyone except Joan hides when I vacuum. This side of my bed is so full of fur and in need of being vacuumed, but I just don't have the heart to push it back there because they are so scared! Afro and Etta stay pouty and hidden for quite awhile after I've put it away. Joan isn't scared, as a matter of fact she sometimes goes after the vacuum, like she wants to fight it!
Happy Monday!
