Strawanas

Vanilla Almond Special K cereal was definetley in order for this morning's AM eats. It topped it off with 1/2 of a slice banana and vanilla almond milk = deliciousness.

Money shot.

Don't get scared, but I took this pic while driving! I was in a rush so I had to finish my coffee in the car.

For lunch I had 3 slices of Tofurky on ezekiel bread w/ vegenaise, grey poupon, TJ's grilled zucchini, soy cheese slices, and sprouts. It was supa yummy.

I also snacked on some of TJ's kettle popcorn and a fuji apple.

After a busy day of school with research class, research meetings, and more research related business, I desperately needed some coffee. This addiction really needs to stop, it's just hard lately when I have been only sleeping like 6 hours a night. Just two weeks left of school left and then I can relax a bit and decrease my coffee intake.

Venti ice coffee w/ soy & SF hazlenut. It really did the job and I was able to crack down on some hw.

For dinner I had something quick and easy. 1/2 cup brown rice, 1/2 cup of peas, 1/2 cup corn, 5 of TJ's soy nuggets, and lots of BBQ sauce. It reminded me a vegan version of a t.v dinner, the colors are also very reminiscent of something from the 50's.

Later as I was typing away on my laptop my sweet roommate Cami presented me w/ a vegan muffin. Not sure about this wrappy thing on it haha, but it tasted delicious anyways!

She even let me post the recipe!
