Foodie Tuesday: The Visiting Vegan

lindsay, March 5, 2013

This is some of my haul from Trader Joe's. Looks good, doesn't it?

I don’t really like to impose myself on people. I’d rather not force my existence upon others, but sometimes (this week for example)…you do what you gotta do. I’m staying at my friend’s apartment for the week. Because she was already kind enough to let me into her home, I didn’t want to inconvenience her more with my distinct eating habits. It’s kind of difficult to have “self-contained” eating habits as a vegan, but when you’re squatting in someone else’s life, there a few ways you can make it work without sacrificing nutrition or taste.

IEG, November 2, 2012

Foodie Tuesday: Amsterdam, Home of the Vegan Munchies!
